mcp:toolsscope enforcement- protected

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
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:
- no token returns
401withWWW-Authenticate - metadata tells the client where auth lives
- token introspection rejects inactive tokens
- audience validation rejects tokens for another API
- scope validation rejects tokens without
