MCP Toolset OAuth Authentication Sample

This sample demonstrates the toolset authentication feature where OAuth credentials are required for both tool listing and tool calling.

Overview

The toolset authentication flow works in two phases:

1. Phase 1: When the agent tries to get tools from the MCP server without credentials, the toolset signals "authentication required" and returns an auth request event.

2. Phase 2: After the user provides OAuth credentials, the agent can successfully list and call tools.

Files

• oauth_mcp_server.py - MCP server that requires Bearer token authentication
• agent.py - Agent configuration with OAuth-protected MCP toolset
• main.py - Test script demonstrating the two-phase auth flow

Running the Sample

1. Start the MCP server in one terminal:

PYTHONPATH=src python contributing/samples/mcp_toolset_auth/oauth_mcp_server.py

2. Run the test script in another terminal:

PYTHONPATH=src python contributing/samples/mcp_toolset_auth/main.py

Expected Behavior

1. First invocation yields an adk_request_credential function call
2. The credential ID is _adk_toolset_auth_McpToolset to indicate toolset auth
3. After providing the access token, the agent can list and call tools

Testing with ADK Web UI

You can also test with the ADK web UI:

adk web contributing/samples/mcp_toolset_auth

Note: The web UI will display the auth request and you'll need to manually provide credentials.
