Test Auth Flows Instantly in Claude Desktop

This MCP Server exposes Descope API endpoints as tools so your client triggers and verifies authentication flows in real time. You run `auth_otp_signin_email` or `auth_magiclink_signup_email` directly from the chat box to test how your application handles sign-up events. Claude Desktop handles the back-and-forth validation step for you. By executing `auth_magiclink_verify` or `auth_otp_verify_email`, your agent checks incoming tokens and confirms successful sessions right on your local machine.

Manage Tenants and Users

This MCP server controls your Descope directories directly through simple chat commands. Your agent runs `mgmt_create_user` and `mgmt_update_user` to modify profiles without requiring you to log into the Descope console. Multi-tenant setups get easier when you let the agent handle the structure. Tools like `mgmt_create_tenant` and `mgmt_list_tenants` let you inspect or build out isolated environments on the fly.

Configure Roles and Access Keys

This server secures your backend systems by generating credentials through your conversational interface. The server provides `mgmt_create_access_key` to spin up machine-to-machine keys for your services. Fine-grained access control is managed via `mgmt_create_role` and `mgmt_create_permission`. Your agent builds the exact policy structure you request, saving you from clicking through web dashboards.
