Security Report
This is an OAuth 2.0 provider framework for MCP servers with solid security fundamentals but moderate concerns. The code properly implements OAuth allowlist-gating, token management, and PKCE support. However, there are concerns around the paid licensing model, environment variable handling in the landing page, and the permissiveness of the default allowlist that users should be aware of. Permissions are appropriate for the stated purpose. Supply chain analysis found 3 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 3 high severity).

What this is not
- Not a hosted MCP product.
https://mcp.gfbytes.comis a ping-only reference server. - Not a completed handshake. The checker reads discovery metadata. It does not do DCR, mint a token, or call
tools/list. A fail is a scoping signal, not a dead end. - Not the paid attach lab. Four-client attempt + written path lives on the studio product page.
Paste only the URL in a Connectors UI — no API key.
Clone / run
Stdlib Python ≥3.10. No install for the checker:
git clone https://github.com/GFB2026/mcp-oauth-connect.git
cd mcp-oauth-connect
python skills/mcp-oauth-connect/scripts/diagnose.py https://mcp.gfbytes.com
Exit 0 if connector-critical checks pass; 1 otherwise. JSON report on stdout.
Looks for a proper login challenge (not a bare 200 from curl), a registration endpoint, PKCE S256, and RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata.
Tests:
python -m pip install "pytest>=8"
python -m pytest
For AI assistants / contributors
Edit lanes and hard stops: .github/copilot-instructions.md.
Verify with python -m pytest (install pytest>=8; this tree is flat — no pip install -e).
Plugin install (optional)
Claude Code:
/plugin marketplace add GFB2026/mcp-oauth-connect
/plugin install mcp-oauth-connect@mcp-oauth-connect
Grok Build:
grok plugin marketplace add GFB2026/mcp-oauth-connect
grok plugin install mcp-oauth-connect --trust
Then run the same diagnose.py path as above.
