Set Client ID via environment variable when launching Inspector

Open dahlsailrunner opened this issue 2 months ago • 1 comments

I don't think there's a way to set the Client ID value in the MCP Inspector when it is launched either via args or environment variables. For development situations where you have a team working on an MCP server behind oauth where the auth server isn't configured to support DCR, the only thing remaining to simplify an easy (and portable) setup to auto-configure the auth is to set this client ID programmatically somehow. The easiest way would be via an environment variable.

If I've missed something and this is already possible just let me know. Thanks in advance -- hoping this is easy (and I'm no react expert so didn't want to make a PR without understanding better).

Hi @dahlsailrunner! This isn't supported by the existing environment variables, so I labeled this as a feature request.
