Local OAuth + MCP Test Server

A tiny local server that reproduces GitHub's real OAuth behavior — including its quirks — so you can test your AI Studio OAuth provider against something you fully control, instead of debugging blind against github.com.

Setup

Plain HTTP. For a public HTTPS URL, put a tunnel (ngrok, cloudflared, tailscale funnel) in front — it terminates TLS at the edge and forwards to this server over loopback HTTP.

npm install
cp .env.example .env   # optional - everything has working defaults
npm run dev            # tsx watch mode (TypeScript, no build step)
# or:
npm run build && npm start   # compile to dist/ then run

Configuration is read from a .env file and validated through a Zod schema at startup. Invalid values produce a structured error report and the process exits before binding the port.

Precedence: shell exports > .env file > built-in defaults — so PORT=9999 npm run dev just works.

Booleans accept true / false / 1 / 0 / yes / no / on / off (case-insensitive). Anything else fails with a clear error.

Server starts on http://0.0.0.0:4587 by default, advertising http://localhost:4587 as its PUBLIC_URL.

Environment variables

Server / network

Variable

Default

Purpose

PORT

4587

Listen port

HOST

0.0.0.0

Bind address. Set to 127.0.0.1 for localhost-only.

PUBLIC_URL

http://localhost:PORT

URL this server advertises in protocol metadata (OAuth issuer, resource identifier, discovery doc). Set when behind a tunnel so advertised identifiers match what clients see.

OAuth / MCP

Variable

Default

Purpose

CLIENT_ID / CLIENT_SECRET

test-client / test-secret

Must match what you configure in your OAuth client (e.g. AI Studio).

TOKEN_RESPONSE_MODE

form

form | json | always_json — controls the token endpoint's response format. form mirrors GitHub's real default (returns JSON only when the client sends Accept: application/json); always_json forces JSON regardless.

ISSUE_REFRESH_TOKENS

true

Set false to skip issuing refresh_token alongside access_token.

TOKEN_TTL_SECONDS

3600

Access token lifetime — set low (e.g. 5) to test expiry fast.

REFRESH_TTL_SECONDS

86400

Refresh token lifetime.

ROTATE_REFRESH_TOKENS

true

Each refresh issues a new refresh token and invalidates the old one; set false for "static" refresh tokens.

ENABLE_DISCOVERY

false

Set true to serve RFC 8414 / OIDC discovery metadata at /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server (and /.well-known/openid-configuration). Off by default to mirror GitHub's missing metadata.

ENABLE_DCR

false

Set true to serve POST /register (RFC 7591 Dynamic Client Registration). Off by default — real GitHub has no equivalent.

DISABLE_AUTH

false

Set true to bypass every client-side credential check: bearer-token middleware on /mcp, client_id / client_secret validation on /oauth/token, client_id and redirect_uri registration checks on /oauth/authorize, and code / refresh-token validity. With it on, /oauth/authorize and /oauth/token mint valid tokens for any input; /mcp accepts any request as authenticated. Also forces ENABLE_DISCOVERY and ENABLE_DCR off regardless of their values. Local testing only — do NOT enable this while exposing the server (PUBLIC_URL / ngrok).

DCR_STORE_PATH

.dcr-clients.json

Where dynamically-registered clients are persisted. Set /dev/null to disable persistence.
