OAuth 2.1 Server MCP Authentication: CIMD Support Soon?
Source: supabase/supabase#41695 · opened by @aslanyerdelen
Hello Supabase Team,
As you probably know, Dynamic Client Registration (DCR) has been painful in practice for MCP clients: it bloats the OAuth Apps list (lots of one-off client_ids) and creates security/operational concerns. Supabase’s current MCP auth guidance also highlights DCR as the default path today.
The Model Context Protocol authorization spec has now evolved to de-emphasize DCR and instead prioritize Client ID Metadata Documents (CIMD) (URL-based client identity / metadata).
OpenAI and Anthropic are also implementing the new CIMD approach for their MCP clients, instead of DCR enforcement.
