This project is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server template that demonstrates an authentication flow using Internet Identity. It is intended for developers building AI clients that require secure, delegated identity verification via the Internet Identity system on the Internet Computer.
How to use MCP Server Template with Internet Identity Authentication?
Configure environment variables for both the MCP server and the React web app, start the MCP server, then start the React web application, and connect your AI client to the MCP server. The AI client begins by calling the authenticate tool to initiate the flow.
Key features of MCP Server Template with Internet Identity Authentication
- Internet Identity based authentication flow
- Delegation chain creation with public key and expiration
- Protected MCP tools accessible only after authentication
- React web app (Auth UI) for user login
- Handles pubkey and expiration in authentication URL
Use cases of MCP Server Template with Internet Identity Authentication
- AI client that needs to authenticate a human user via Internet Identity before accessing sensitive tools
- Prototyping MCP servers with delegated identity on the Internet Computer
- Demonstrating how to integrate a web-based auth UI with an MCP server
- Building AI workflows where the server must verify the user’s identity for each session
