Today is the day, MCP is launching the next version of the spec! The 2026-07-28 version brings a bunch of exciting changes like statelessness, but I'm focused on the boring auth side of things that nobody wants to deal with!

• Issuer validation (RFC 9207)
• Refresh token and offline_access recommendations
• Scope clarifications
• Syncing with RFC 8414 .well-known URI

In the mean time, there's been a ton of excitement around MCP's Enterprise-Managed Auth extension, with a beta program running in Claude and Okta and new MCP servers shipping support by the day!

Join me at the MCP spec release party in London tonight to learn about what's new in enterprise MCP security!

Cross-Domain API Access: Beyond the "Obvious" Shortcuts

Cross-domain access is everywhere in today's software landscape. Whether you look at enterprise SaaS applications, AI agents interacting with user data across multiple platforms, or "integrated experiences" pulling information from a calendar, a chat tool, and a wiki—everything eventually needs to talk across boundaries.

The "Agent Verified" signup flow from WorkOS is exactly what I've been telling the agent platforms they should be doing with Cross App Access! Very cool to see this launch! 👏

https://workos.com/auth-md/docs/flows/verified

"The agent's provider — OpenAI, Anthropic, Cursor, or any trusted agent platform — attests to the user's identity at registration time. Your service verifies the attestation and issues credentials synchronously, no human interaction required."

In Cross App Access terms:

• The "agent platform/provider" is the ID-JAG issuer, because users are already signed in to those platforms when they use agents
• The "service" is the ID-JAG consumer (the Resource AS), and issues an access token if the ID-JAG is trusted and valid

You can test this out in the Cross App Access sandbox today! https://xaa.dev/

San Francisco Billboards - August 2025

Every time I take a Lyft from the San Francisco airport to downtown going up 101, I notice the billboards. The billboards on 101 are always such a good snapshot in time of the current peak of the Silicon Valley hype cycle. I've decided to capture photos of the billboards every time I am there, to see how this changes over time.

The latest version of the MCP spec is now officially 2025-06-18! Congrats to everyone in the MCP community involved in making this happen!

Key updates to the authorization section:

⚙️ MCP Servers are no longer responsible for issuing access tokens or handling user authentication
🛡️ A dedicated Authorization Server separate from the MCP Server handles user authentication and issuing access tokens
🔍 RFC9728 Protected Resource Metadata enables the MCP client to dynamically discover the MCP Server's authorization server
👉 RFC8707 Resource Indicators are required as a security measure

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the many discussions to update the authorization part of the spec to be more compatible with existing OAuth systems!

David Soria Parra, Paul Carleton, Den Delimarsky, Nate Barbettini, William Dawson, Jared Hanson, Karl McGuinness, Darin McAdams, Jean-François LOMBARDO and apologies if I forgot to mention you, those threads were extremely long!

In two weeks I'll be speaking at the MCP Dev Summit in San Francisco! It's going to be a great day packed with back to back sessions.

In less than a year, the MCP project has quickly reshaped how developers are building AI agents. My talk, "Intro to OAuth for MCP Servers", will cover the basics of the new MCP authorization protocol and set the stage for building secure MCP servers.
