Ship user authentication with one prompt: introducing Logto MCP Server

#mcp #ai #authentication

This article is created by Logto, an open-source solution that helps developers implement secure auth in minutes instead of months.

"Integrate Logto into my project"

One prompt, and you get a working auth setup.

Today we’re launching Logto MCP Server: a hosted MCP server that lets your AI tool set up Logto for your app. No local installation. No copying API keys.

The agent can inspect your project, create a Logto application, apply the right settings, and generate integration code you can run. What used to be a multi-step setup becomes a short conversation, inside your IDE.

Get started in 2 steps

  1. Add Logto MCP Server to your AI tool (Cursor, VS Code, OpenCode, Claude Desktop, and any client that supports MCP authorization)
  2. Ask it to integrate Logto

No API keys to copy around. You authenticate once, then you can start working.

What you can do

"Integrate Logto into my project"

The agent detects your stack, creates the Logto app, and generates working integration code. It supports 38+ quick starts, including React, Next.js, Vue, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Express, Go, Python, iOS, Android, Flutter, and more.

"How do I set up social login?"

Ask questions in plain English. The agent searches Logto docs and answers with citations, so you can verify and keep moving.

Built for developers

  • Hosted MCP server, no local installation required
  • Works with your tools: Cursor, VS Code, OpenCode, Claude Desktop, and any client that supports MCP authorization
  • Secure by default: OIDC/OAuth 2.1 compliant, plus RBAC, MFA, CAPTCHA, and more
  • Standards-based auth for MCP: uses the MCP Authorization spec, powered by mcp-auth (our open source project bringing standard auth to MCP servers)

What's next

This first release is about the “quick start” path: get a working sign-in flow running quickly.

Next, we’re expanding what the MCP server can configure and guide you through:

  • Sign-in experience: branding, sign-in methods, social providers
  • RBAC: roles, permissions, and recommended patterns
  • Multi-tenancy: organizations and B2B SaaS setups
