Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Auth infrastructure for coding agents. User pools, secrets vault, token management. As easy as git.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Computer or cloud
  • Transport: stdio, SSE
  • Category: Developer tools
  • You need to fill in: AUTHSHORE_API_KEY, Authorization

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • You fill in yourself: AUTHSHORE_API_KEY, Authorization

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • Runs in the cloudNothing to install; it connects over the internet
  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Or run it on your computer

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "authshore": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "authshore"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AUTHSHORE_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport sse authshore https://mcp.authshore.ai/sse --header 'Authorization: your-value'

Or run it on your computer

claude mcp add authshore --env AUTHSHORE_API_KEY=your-value -- npx -y authshore

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "authshore": {
      "url": "https://mcp.authshore.ai/sse",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or run it on your computer

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "authshore": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "authshore"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AUTHSHORE_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "authshore": {
      "type": "sse",
      "url": "https://mcp.authshore.ai/sse",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or run it on your computer

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "authshore": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "authshore"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AUTHSHORE_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • AUTHSHORE_API_KEY secret required env
    AuthShore API key (as_...). Get one with 'npx authshore signup --email ' or at https://authshore.ai.
  • Authorization secret HTTP header
    Bearer token using your AuthShore API key: 'Bearer as_...'. Optional: without one the server starts in onboarding mode and can self-signup via the authshore_signup tool.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is Authshore safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: AUTHSHORE_API_KEY, Authorization

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

Either way works: install it on your computer or connect to the cloud version.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.3) reached the registry 3 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: GitHub, Desktop Commander, Cloudflare MCP

Auth infrastructure for coding agents — user pools, secrets vault, token management. As easy as git.

git for your code. as for your auth.

Your agent can scaffold a whole app in an afternoon — then stalls the moment it needs auth. It hardcodes secrets into .env files it later commits, rolls its own JWT handling, and leaves you wiring up Cognito by hand. AuthShore is the auth layer your agent runs itself: one install, and it provisions user pools, stores secrets encrypted, and mints, validates and refreshes tokens — from the terminal, with no console to click through.

Works with: Claude Code · Cursor · Cline · Windsurf · Aider · Codex · any MCP client

Zero to auth in 60sSecrets vaultTokens & pools

More demos: authshore.ai/#demo

Install

npm install -g authshore

The npm package is authshore; the command is as.

Quick Start

# 1. Create a project — free plan, API key active immediately, no card

as signup my-project --email you@example.com --local

2. Create a user pool

as pool create main

3. Store a secret (encrypted at rest, versioned)

as secret set DATABASE_URL "postgres://user:pass@host:5432/db"

4. Sign up a user in your pool

as pool auth signup main --email user@example.com --password SecurePass123!

Full reference

as help

User Pools — Cognito without the console

Every project gets isolated user pools your agent manages from the terminal: create pools, add users, run full signup/signin flows that return real JWT pairs.

as pool create main                      # create a pool

as pool list # list pools as pool users # list users in a pool as pool user add --email E --password P as pool auth signup --email E --password P # returns access + refresh tokens as pool auth signin --email E --password P

Secrets Vault — stop pasting keys into .env

Encrypted, versioned key-value storage scoped to your project. Your agent stores third-party keys once and reads them at deploy time — nothing sensitive left sitting in the repo.

as secret set STRIPE_KEY "sk_..." --env production

as secret get STRIPE_KEY # decrypted read as secret list as secret versions STRIPE_KEY # full version history as secret delete STRIPE_KEY

Tokens — mint, validate, refresh, revoke

The JWT plumbing agents usually hand-roll, done right once.

as token validate <jwt>                  # verify signature + expiry, show claims

as token refresh # rotate the pair as token revoke # kill a compromised token

MCP Server

Prefer tools over a CLI? as ships an MCP server. Point Claude Code (or any MCP client) at it and your agent gets 18 native tools: pools, users, secrets, tokens, project status.

claude mcp add authshore --env AUTHSHORE_API_KEY=as_your_key_here -- as mcp-serve

For clients that use a JSON config (Cline, Cursor, Windsurf), pass your API key via the AUTHSHORE_API_KEY environment variable. The MCP server runs outside your project directory, so it will not pick up .authshore/config.json:

{

"mcpServers": { "authshore": { "command": "as", "args": ["mcp-serve"], "env": { "AUTHSHORE_API_KEY": "as_your_key_here" } } } }

No key yet? as signup my-project --email you@example.com provisions one in seconds — free plan, no card.

Remote MCP — zero install

No CLI at all? Claude Web, Claude Desktop, Raycast, or any hosted MCP client can connect straight to our remote server. Same 18 tools, nothing to install:

URL:  https://mcp.authshore.ai/sse

Auth: Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

No key? Connect without one: the remote server starts in onboarding mode with an authshore_signup tool that provisions your account and unlocks everything in the same session.

Features

  • User pools - isolated pools per project, full signup/signin flows, real JWT pairs
  • Secrets vault - encrypted at rest, versioned, environment-scoped
  • Tokens - validate, refresh, revoke from the terminal
  • MCP server - 18 tools, local (as mcp-serve) or fully remote (mcp.authshore.ai): Claude Code, Claude Web, Cursor, Raycast, any MCP client
  • Agent-first CLI - --json on every command for programmatic parsing
  • Project-local config - .authshore/config.json, auto-loaded, gitignore-friendly

Pricing: free plan with an instantly-active API key — no card, no trial clock. Paid plans (Starter $9 / Pro $29 / Scale $99 per month) come with a 7-day free trial via secure Stripe checkout. Details.

Config

as login --key YOUR_KEY --local     # saves to .authshore/config.json (project-local)

as config # show active config as me # identity check: which project am I?

API key is resolved in this order (highest priority first):

  1. --key flag
  2. AUTHSHORE_API_KEY environment variable
  3. ./.authshore/config.json (project-local)
  4. ~/.authshore/config.json (global)

Add .authshore/ to your .gitignore.

Agent Integration

Add to your CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules, .clinerules, .windsurfrules, or AGENTS.md:

## Auth

This project uses AuthShore for auth: user pools, secrets, tokens. Use the as CLI. Config is in .authshore/config.json (auto-loaded). If not configured: as login --local --key YOUR_KEY Run as help for the full command reference. Run as me before any writes.

Why this exists

Every agent-built app hits the same wall: auth. I watched my agents hardcode secrets, reinvent JWT refresh, and stall on Cognito consoles they can't click. So I built the auth layer the agent runs itself. It's early and I'm iterating fast: if something's rough or missing, open an issue — I read every one.
