End-to-end auth debugging with Cline

Tell Cline to fix a failing API test by running the `decode_jwt` tool on the test token. It will automatically check if the expiration time is the culprit. If the token expired, Cline generates a fresh one, updates your test setup, and runs the test suite again. This MCP Server integrates directly into Cline's agentic loop. Instead of just pointing out an invalid token, Cline finds the token, decodes it, and fixes the code that generated it.

Secure local verification

Avoid sending secret keys or production tokens to online decoders by using the `decode_jwt` tool to validate signatures offline. This ensures your development workflows don't leak credentials. Cline uses the tool's verification status to confirm your backend is signing tokens correctly. You keep your security posture intact while moving fast.

Fast claim extraction

Read headers and payloads instantly using the `decode_jwt` tool. The tool parses the base64url strings and returns structured JSON that Cline can read and use in its workspace. This lets the agent verify scopes, roles, and custom claims during development. You don't have to write custom parsing helper functions just to debug a test case using this MCP tool.
