The Auth0 MCP Server integrates with LLMs and AI agents, allowing you to perform various Auth0 management operations using natural language. For instance, you could simply ask Claude Desktop to perform Auth0 management operations:
Create a new Auth0 app and get the domain and client ID
Create and deploy a new Auth0 action to generate a JWT token
Could you check Auth0 logs for logins from 192.108.92.3 IP address?
Prerequisites:
Install Auth0 MCP Server and configure it to work with your preferred MCP Client. The --tools parameter specifies which tools should be available (defaults to * if not provided).

Codex CLI
Authenticate once with Auth0:
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server init
Then add the Auth0 MCP server to Codex:
codex mcp add auth0 --env DEBUG=auth0-mcp --env DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:path=/run/user/1000/bus -- npx -y @auth0/auth0-mcp-server run
You can also add it directly to ~/.codex/config.toml:
[mcp_servers.auth0]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "@auth0/auth0-mcp-server", "run"]
[mcp_servers.auth0.env]
DEBUG = "auth0-mcp"
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS = "unix:path=/run/user/1000/bus"
Restart Codex after updating the configuration.
Other MCP Clients
To use Auth0 MCP Server with any other MCP Client, you can manually add this configuration to the client and restart for changes to take effect:
{
"mcpServers": {
"auth0": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@auth0/auth0-mcp-server", "run"],
"capabilities": ["tools"],
"env": {
"DEBUG": "auth0-mcp"
}
}
}
}
You can add --tools '<pattern>' to the args array to control which tools are available. See Security Best Practices for recommended patterns.
Your browser will automatically open to initiate the OAuth 2.0 device authorization flow. Log into your Auth0 account and grant the requested permissions.
[!NOTE] Credentials are securely stored in your system's keychain. You can optionally verify storage through your keychain management tool. Check out Authentication for more info.
Restart your MCP Client (Claude Desktop, Windsurf, Cursor, etc.) and ask it to help you manage your Auth0 tenant
To get a project running with Auth0 from scratch, ask your MCP Client to onboard it (e.g. Onboard my Next.js project with Auth0). This invokes the auth0_onboarding tool, which creates an Auth0 application configured for your framework and writes the credentials to a .env file in your project. Under the hood it composes the auth0_create_application and auth0_save_credentials_to_file tools to do this. It then hands off to auth0_get_quickstart_guide, which resolves your callback URLs, updates the application, and returns the framework-specific code to integrate the Auth0 SDK — taking you from no Auth0 setup to a working integration in a single guided flow.
The Auth0 MCP Server provides the following tools for Claude to interact with your Auth0 tenant:
When configuring the Auth0 MCP Server, it's important to follow security best practices by limiting tool access based on your specific needs. The server provides flexible configuration options that let you control which tools AI assistants can access.
You can easily restrict tool access using the --tools and --read-only flags when starting the server:
# Enable only read-only operations
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server run --read-only
# Alternative way to enable only read-only operations
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server run --tools 'auth0_list_*,auth0_get_*'
# Limit to just application-related tools
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server run --tools 'auth0_*_application*'
# Limit to read-only application-related tools
# Note: --read-only takes priority when used with --tools
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server run --tools 'auth0_*_application*' --read-only
# Restrict to only log viewing capabilities
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server run --tools 'auth0_list_logs,auth0_get_log'
# Run the server with all tools enabled
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server run --tools '*'
[!IMPORTANT] When both
--read-onlyand--toolsflags are used together, the--read-onlyflag takes priority for security. This means even if your--toolspattern matches non-read-only tools, only read-only operations will be available. This ensures you can rely on the--read-onlyflag as a security guardrail.
For environments where CLI flags cannot be passed through (for example, MCP bundle installs), the same controls are available as environment variables:
CLI flags take precedence when both are provided.
This approach offers several important benefits:
Enhanced Security: By limiting available tools to only what's needed, you reduce the potential attack surface and prevent unintended modifications to your Auth0 tenant.
Better Performance: Providing fewer tools to AI assistants actually improves performance. When models have access to many tools, they use more of their context window to reason about which tools to use. With a focused set of tools, you'll get faster and more relevant responses.
Resource-Based Access Control: You can configure different instances of the MCP server with different tool sets based on specific needs - development environments might need full access, while production environments could be limited to read operations only.
Simplified Auditing: With limited tools, it's easier to track which operations were performed through the AI assistant.
For most use cases, start with the minimum set of tools needed and add more only when required. This follows the principle of least privilege - a fundamental security best practice.
The server automatically redacts sensitive fields (e.g., client_secret, token etc.) in relevant MCP tool responses, replacing them with [REDACTED]. This prevents secrets from leaking into AI assistant logs or conversation history.
To securely store credentials locally, the auth0_save_credentials_to_file tool writes Auth0 credentials as environment variables to a user-specified file (e.g., .env.local), and automatically adds it to .gitignore. If the file already exists, credentials are appended (preserving existing content); otherwise, a new file is created. This tool can be invoked manually or the AI assistant will automatically prompt you to save credentials after creating an application.
We recommend regularly scanning this server, and any other MCP-compatible servers you deploy, with community tools built to surface protocol-level risks and misconfigurations.
These scanners help identify issues across key vulnerability classes including: server implementation bugs, tool definition and lifecycle risks, interaction and data flow weaknesses, and configuration or environment gaps.
Useful tools include:
mcpscan.ai
Web-based scanner that inspects live MCP endpoints for exposed tools, schema enforcement gaps, and other issues.
mcp-scan
CLI tool that simulates attack paths and evaluates server behavior from a client perspective.
These tools are not a substitute for a full audit, but they offer meaningful guardrails and early warnings. We suggest including them in your regular security review process.
If you discover a vulnerability, please follow our responsible disclosure process.
The Auth0 MCP Server implements the Model Context Protocol, allowing Claude to:
The server handles authentication, request validation, and secure communication with the Auth0 Management API.
[!NOTE] The server operates as a local process that connects to Claude Desktop, enabling secure communication without exposing your Auth0 credentials.
The Auth0 MCP Server uses the Auth0 Management API and requires authentication to access your Auth0 tenant.
To authenticate the MCP Server:
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server init
This will start the device authorization flow, allowing you to log in to your Auth0 account and select the tenant you want to use.
[!NOTE] Authenticating using device authorization flow is not supported for private cloud tenants. Private Cloud users should authenticate with client credentials.Keep the token lifetime as minimal as possible to reduce security risks. See more
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server init --auth0-domain <auth0-domain> --auth0-client-id <auth0-client-id> --auth0-client-secret <auth0-client-secret>
[!IMPORTANT]
Supported scopes:
read:clientscreate:clientsupdate:clientsread:resource_serverscreate:resource_serversupdate:resource_serversread:actionscreate:actionsupdate:actionsread:logsread:formscreate:formsupdate:forms
- You're setting up the MCP Server for the first time
- You've logged out from a previous session
- You want to switch to a different tenant
- Your token has expired
The
runcommand will automatically check for token validity before starting the server and will provide helpful error messages if authentication is needed.
[!NOTE] Using the MCP Server will consume Management API rate limits according to the subscription plan. Refer to the Rate Limit Policy for more information.
[!TIP] Using the
--no-interactionflag skips the user interaction (press return) to open the browser during setup. This can be useful if the MCP server is initiated in certain environments like an AI Agent.
To see information about your current authentication session:
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server session
For security best practices, always use the logout command when you're done with a session:
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server logout
This ensures your authentication tokens are properly removed from the system keychain.
The server uses OAuth 2.0 device authorization flow for secure authentication with Auth0. Your credentials are stored securely in your system's keychain and are never exposed in plain text.
When encountering issues with the Auth0 MCP Server, several troubleshooting options are available to help diagnose and resolve problems.
Start troubleshooting by exploring all available commands and options:
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server help
export DEBUG=auth0-mcp[!TIP] Debug mode is particularly useful when troubleshooting connection or authentication issues.
The server provides an interactive scope selection interface during initialization:
Interactive Selection: Navigate with arrow keys and toggle selections with spacebar
No Default Scopes: By default, no scopes are selected for maximum security
Glob Pattern Support: Quickly select multiple related scopes with patterns:
# Select all read scopes
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server init --scopes 'read:*'
# Select multiple scope patterns (comma-separated)
npx @auth0/auth0-mcp-server init --scopes 'read:*,create:clients,update:actions'
[!NOTE] Selected scopes determine what operations the MCP server can perform on your Auth0 tenant.
To use Auth0 MCP Server with any other MCP Client, you can add this configuration to the client and restart for changes to take effect:
{
"mcpServers": {
"auth0": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@auth0/auth0-mcp-server", "run"],
"capabilities": ["tools"],
"env": {
"DEBUG": "auth0-mcp"
}
}
}
}
[!NOTE]
You can manually update if needed or if any unexpected errors occur during the npx init command.
