JavaScript MCP Auth Server

This package shows the remote MCP auth boundary in JavaScript:

  • Express HTTP server

  • MCP Streamable HTTP transport at /mcp

  • Protected Resource Metadata

  • Bearer token middleware

  • Keycloak token introspection

  • audience validation

  • mcp:tools scope enforcement

  • protected add_numbers and server_status tools

Run

pnpm mcp-auth-server-js install
cp .env.example .env
pnpm mcp-auth-server-js demo:keycloak
pnpm mcp-auth-server-js start

For the demo, configure Keycloak with:

  • client scope: mcp:tools

  • MCP server confidential client: mcp-server

  • demo client/user for obtaining an access token

  • token audience: http://localhost:3000/mcp

Related MCP server: mcp-keycloak

Demo Scripts

pnpm mcp-auth-server-js demo:no-token
pnpm mcp-auth-server-js demo:metadata
pnpm mcp-auth-server-js demo:get-token
pnpm mcp-auth-server-js demo:call-tool
pnpm mcp-auth-server-js demo:bad-scope

The important point is the failure order:

  1. no token returns 401 with WWW-Authenticate

  2. metadata tells the client where auth lives

  3. token introspection rejects inactive tokens

  4. audience validation rejects tokens for another API

  5. scope validation rejects tokens without mcp:tools
