ScopeGate

by alifanov

ScopeGate

Never hand an AI agent a full OAuth scope again.

ScopeGate sits between your agents and the accounts they reach — yours or your clients'. You connect a service once, tick the exact actions an agent may call, and hand it an MCP endpoint that can do nothing else. Every call is logged; one click kills the key without touching the connection.

  • Per-action permissionsgmail:read_emails yes, gmail:send_email no. Finer than any provider's OAuth scopes.

  • Audit trail — who, which tool, what outcome, how long. Per project, exportable.

  • One-click revocation — regenerate an endpoint key; the service connection stays.

  • Tokens never leave — AES-256-GCM at rest, refreshed automatically, agents only ever see sg_….

Run it yourself in one command:

docker compose --profile local up

Open http://localhost:3000 — the admin login is printed in the container logs on first boot. Details in Quick Start.

Tech Stack

  • Framework: Next.js 16 (App Router)

  • Language: TypeScript

  • Database: PostgreSQL + Prisma 7

  • UI: Tailwind CSS v4, shadcn/ui

  • Auth: Better Auth (database-backed sessions, Prisma adapter)

  • MCP: @modelcontextprotocol/sdk (Streamable HTTP)

  • Package Manager: pnpm

Related MCP server: mcpgate

Quick Start (self-hosted)

Full feature parity with the hosted cloud version — nothing is cut for self-host.

git clone https://github.com/alifanov/scopegate.git
cd scopegate
docker compose --profile local up

Open http://localhost:3000. No .env file needed: a local Postgres and a fresh BETTER_AUTH_SECRET are provisioned automatically, and the generated admin login is printed once in the app container logs on first boot (look for Generated admin login) — search it with docker compose logs app | grep -A4 "First run". The password is also saved to the app_data volume so it survives restarts.

To connect real services (Gmail, LinkedIn, GitHub, …), copy .env.example to .env and fill in the OAuth client id/secret for the providers you want — every block is independent and optional, a provider without credentials simply doesn't show up.

Development Setup

Prerequisites

  • Node.js 20.19+, 22.12+ or 24+ (required by Prisma 7)

  • pnpm

  • PostgreSQL

Setup

  1. Clone the repository and install dependencies:

pnpm install
  1. Copy the environment file and fill in your values:

cp .env.example .env

Variable

Description

DATABASE_URL

PostgreSQL connection string

BETTER_AUTH_SECRET

Secret key for session signing

BETTER_AUTH_URL

App base URL (e.g. http://localhost:3000)

ADMIN_EMAIL

Bootstrap admin email

ADMIN_PASSWORD

Bootstrap admin password

  1. Run database migrations:

pnpm prisma migrate dev
  1. Start the development server:

pnpm dev

Open http://localhost:3000.

How It Works

  1. Login — sign in with admin credentials (bootstrapped from env vars on first run)

  2. Create a Project — organize endpoints and services by project

  3. Connect a Service — add a service connection to the project

  4. Create an MCP Endpoint — select a service connection and pick specific permissions (e.g. gmail:read_emails, calendar:create_event)

  5. Use the MCP URL — plug the endpoint URL into any MCP-compatible AI agent; only the allowed actions are exposed

  6. Monitor — track every request in the audit log

Permissions

A permission is a single action, not a service — gmail:read_emails can be granted without gmail:send_email. Groups are derived from src/lib/provider-registry.ts (27 providers: Google Workspace, Google Ads & Search Console, Meta, LinkedIn, Twitter, Slack, Notion, Jira, HubSpot, Salesforce, Stripe, Airtable, …) and listed in src/lib/mcp/permissions.ts. Adding a provider means editing the registry — transport, token strategy and permission groups are all derived from it.

A few Google examples:

Group

Actions

Gmail

gmail:read_emails, gmail:send_email, gmail:list_labels, gmail:search_emails

Google Calendar

calendar:list_events, calendar:create_event, calendar:update_event, calendar:delete_event

Google Drive

drive:list_files, drive:read_file, drive:create_file, drive:delete_file

Database Schema

  • User — authentication, team membership

  • Session — database-backed auth sessions

  • Account — auth provider credentials (email/password)

  • Project — logical grouping for services and endpoints

  • TeamMember — user-project relationship with roles (owner/member)

  • ServiceConnection — OAuth tokens for connected services

  • McpEndpoint — MCP endpoint with API key, rate limit, active status

  • EndpointPermission — allowed actions per endpoint

  • AuditLog — request log with action, status, duration, errors
