It has been moving fast.

One weird thing I found a few weeks ago, when I added my remote MCP to Claude's integration tab on the website, I was getting OAuth errors.

Turns out they are requiring a special "claudeai" scope. Once I added that to my server, I was able to use it remotely in claude desktop!

I couldn't find any docs or reasons online for them requesting this scope.

Also, I have been using remote mcps in claude code for weeks with the awesome mcp-remote proxy tool. It's nice to not need that any longer!

Then as I'm writing a book currently on MCP Servers with OAuth, Elicitations come out! I'm rushing to update this book and be the best source for every part of the latest spec, as I can already see lots of gaps in documentation on all these things.

Huge shout out to VS Code for being the best MCP Client, they have support for Elicitations in Insiders already and it works great from my testing.

This is an extremely helpful bit of information about Oauth scope. THANK YOU

For the curious and lazy, said book appears to be https://leanpub.com/creatingmcpserverswithoauth

For more curious and lazy people -- what are elicitations?

Just call them “web forms” for LLMs.

You can ask the client to fill in a dropdown or input.

Example they give is a restaurants table booking tool.

Imagine saying book a table at 5pm. But 5pm is taken.

You can “elicit” the user and have them select from a list of available times
