Descope MCP Server

Introduction

The Descope Model Context Protocol (MCP) server provides an interface to interact with Descope's Management APIs, enabling the search and retrieval of project-related information.

Available Tools

  • search-audits: Retrieves up to 10 audit log entries from your Descope project.
  • search-users: Retrieves up to 10 user records from your Descope project.
  • create-user: Creates a new user in your Descope project.
  • invite-user: Invites a new user to your Descope project.

Requirements

Before proceeding, make sure you have the following:

To confirm your Node.js installation, run:

node --version # Expected output: v18.0.0 or later

Setup Instructions

Installing via Smithery

To install Descope MCP Server for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @descope-sample-apps/descope-mcp-server --client claude

Manual Installation

  1. Clone the repository:
    git clone https://github.com/descope-sample-apps/descope-mcp-server.git cd descope-mcp-server
  2. Install the necessary dependencies:
    npm install
  3. Build the project:
    npm run build

Configuration

1. Configure Claude Desktop to recognize the Descope MCP server

To locate the claude_desktop_config.json file, open the Claude Desktop app and enable Developer Mode from the top-left menu bar.

Once enabled, go to Settings (also in the top-left menu), navigate to the Developer section, and click the Edit Config button to access and edit claude_desktop_config.json.

Alternatively, to open the configuration file via terminal:

On macOS:
code ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
On Windows:
code %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

2. Add the Descope server configuration:

{ "mcpServers": { "descope": { "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/descope-mcp-server/build/index.js"], "env": { "DESCOPE_PROJECT_ID": "your-descope-project-id-here", "DESCOPE_MANAGEMENT_KEY": "your-descope-management-key-here" } } } }

Replace your-descope-project-id-here and your-descope-management-key-here with your actual Descope Project ID and Management Key from app.descope.com/settings/project and app.descope.com/settings/company/managementkeys.

3. Restart Claude Desktop

To apply the changes:

  1. Fully quit Claude Desktop (ensure it's not just minimized).
  2. Relaunch Claude Desktop.
  3. Check for the 🔌 icon to confirm the Descope server is connected.
