FAQ from deAPI MCP Server

What authentication does the server use?

OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code flow with PKCE (for remote connections) or Bearer token via HTTP headers (for local development). Tools do not accept an API token parameter; all authentication is handled at the connection level.

What are the runtime requirements?

Python 3.10 or higher with uv, pip, or conda. For remote deployment, Docker is supported via the provided Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml.

Where does data live?

The server forwards requests to the deAPI API and does not store API tokens. Tokens are used only for the specific request and never persisted or logged.

What transport does the server use?

Streamable HTTP (MCP over HTTP). The server can run locally on localhost:8000 or be deployed to a remote server with MCP_HOST=0.0.0.0.

Are there any known limits?

Polling timeouts are 5 minutes for audio and image jobs, 15 minutes for video jobs. The server retries failed requests up to 3 times
