SSE transport has been removed from the MCP specification in favor of streamable HTTP. This removes all SSE-specific transport code: - Remove `transport-sse-client` and `transport-sse-server` features - Remove `SseClientTransport` and `SseServer` types - Remove SSE-specific examples (`counter_sse`, `counter_sse_directly`) - Migrate auth examples from SSE to streamable HTTP - Update tests to remove SSE transport usage - Update documentation BREAKING CHANGE: The following have been removed: - `transport-sse-client` feature - `transport-sse-client-reqwest` feature - `transport-sse-server` feature - `SseClientTransport` type - `SseServer` type - `sse_client` and `sse_server` modules Users should migrate to streamable HTTP transport which provides equivalent functionality. See `StreamableHttpClientTransport` and `StreamableHttpService` for the replacement APIs. Ref: https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/rust-sdk/pull/561#issuecomment-3576551699

# Model Context Protocol OAuth Authorization
|
|
|
|
This document describes the OAuth 2.1 authorization implementation for Model Context Protocol (MCP), following the [MCP 2025-03-26 Authorization Specification](https://spec.modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-03-26/basic/authorization/).
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- Full support for OAuth 2.1 authorization flow
|
|
- PKCE support for enhanced security
|
|
- Authorization server metadata discovery
|
|
- Dynamic client registration
|
|
- Automatic token refresh
|
|
- Authorized HTTP Client implementation
|
|
|
|
## Usage Guide
|
|
|
|
### 1. Enable Features
|
|
|
|
Enable the auth feature in Cargo.toml:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
rmcp = { version = "0.1", features = ["auth", "transport-streamable-http-client-reqwest"] }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Use OAuthState
|
|
|
|
```rust ignore
|
|
// Initialize oauth state machine
|
|
let mut oauth_state = OAuthState::new(&server_url, None)
|
|
.await
|
|
.context("Failed to initialize oauth state machine")?;
|
|
oauth_state
|
|
.start_authorization(&["mcp", "profile", "email"], MCP_REDIRECT_URI)
|
|
.await
|
|
.context("Failed to start authorization")?;
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Get authorization url and do callback
|
|
|
|
```rust ignore
|
|
// Get authorization URL and guide user to open it
|
|
let auth_url = oauth_state.get_authorization_url().await?;
|
|
println!("Please open the following URL in your browser for authorization:\n{}", auth_url);
|
|
|
|
// Handle callback - In real applications, this is typically done in a callback server
|
|
let auth_code = "Authorization code (`code` param) obtained from browser after user authorization";
|
|
let csrf_token = "CSRF token (`state` param) obtained from browser after user authorization";
|
|
let credentials = oauth_state.handle_callback(auth_code, csrf_token).await?;
|
|
|
|
println!("Authorization successful, access token: {}", credentials.access_token);
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 4. Use Authorized Streamable HTTP Transport and create client
|
|
|
|
```rust ignore
|
|
let am = oauth_state
|
|
.into_authorization_manager()
|
|
.ok_or_else(|| anyhow::anyhow!("Failed to get authorization manager"))?;
|
|
let client = AuthClient::new(reqwest::Client::default(), am);
|
|
let transport = StreamableHttpClientTransport::with_client(
|
|
client,
|
|
StreamableHttpClientTransportConfig::with_uri(MCP_SERVER_URL),
|
|
);
|
|
|
|
// Create client and connect to MCP server
|
|
let client_service = ClientInfo::default();
|
|
let client = client_service.serve(transport).await?;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 5. Use Authorized HTTP Client after authorized
|
|
|
|
```rust ignore
|
|
let client = oauth_state.to_authorized_http_client().await?;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Complete Examples
|
|
|
|
- **Client**: `examples/clients/src/auth/oauth_client.rs`
|
|
- **Server**: `examples/servers/src/complex_auth_streamhttp.rs`
|
|
|
|
### Running the Examples
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Run the OAuth server
|
|
cargo run --example servers_complex_auth_streamhttp
|
|
|
|
# Run the OAuth client (in another terminal)
|
|
cargo run --example clients_oauth_client
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Authorization Flow Description
|
|
|
|
1. **Metadata Discovery**: Client attempts to get authorization server metadata from `/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server`
|
|
2. **Client Registration**: If supported, client dynamically registers itself
|
|
3. **Authorization Request**: Build authorization URL with PKCE and guide user to access
|
|
4. **Authorization Code Exchange**: After user authorization, exchange authorization code for access token
|
|
5. **Token Usage**: Use access token for API calls
|
|
6. **Token Refresh**: Automatically use refresh token to get new access token when current one expires
|
|
|
|
## Security Considerations
|
|
|
|
- All tokens are securely stored in memory
|
|
- PKCE implementation prevents authorization code interception attacks
|
|
- Automatic token refresh support reduces user intervention
|
|
- Only accepts HTTPS connections or secure local callback URIs
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
If you encounter authorization issues, check the following:
|
|
|
|
1. Ensure server supports OAuth 2.1 authorization
|
|
2. Verify callback URI matches server's allowed redirect URIs
|
|
3. Check network connection and firewall settings
|
|
4. Verify server supports metadata discovery or dynamic client registration
|
