About Remote Setup With Jwt Auth
Remote Setup With Jwt Auth is an MCP server published by anisirji in the AI category: secure middleware server implementing Model Context Protocol (MCP) over SSE with JWT authentication. Enables standardized communication between AI tools and clients with dynamic tool registration, request logging, and session management. Perfect for building production-ready AI systems requiring sec. It has been installed 0 times through Conduid.
The repository has 4 stars and 2 forks, with the last commit a year ago. Six months or more without a commit doesn't mean the server is broken, but check the open issues (0) before depending on it in production.
Install
npx mcp-server-remote-setup-with-jwt-authThis server has no ConduID identity, so agent calls to it are not receipted. Pin the version you install and review the source before granting it credentials.

🔐 SSE MCP Server with JWT Authentication
This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) SSE server with JWT-based authentication.
It allows you to expose multiple AI tools over an SSE transport, protected via secure Bearer Token flow.
Built with:
- 🚀 Node.js + Express
- 🧩 @modelcontextprotocol/sdk
- 🔒 JSON Web Tokens (JWT) for authentication
- ⚙️ Zod for input validation
✅ Fully tested with
@modelcontextprotocol/inspector

✨ Features
- ✅ Secure SSE connection using Bearer JWT token
- ✅ Dynamic Tool registration (echo, time, random number, etc.)
- ✅ Tested with MCP Inspector
- ✅ Logs all request lifecycle events
- ✅ Session management for /message endpoint
- 🚀 Ready to extend for production use
⚙️ Setup
1. Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/anisirji/mcp-server-remote-setup-with-jwt-auth.git
cd mcp-server-remote-setup-with-jwt-auth
2. Install dependencies
npm install
3. Create .env file
echo "JWT_SECRET=your-secret-key" > .env
4. Run the server
npm run dev
✅ Server will run on:
http://localhost:3001/sse
🧪 Testing the server with MCP Inspector
Step 1 — Install MCP Inspector
📖 Official Docs: MCP Inspector
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector
Step 2 — Generate a token
Use cURL to get your JWT token:
curl "http://localhost:3001/auth/token?username=aniket&scope=mcp:access"
✅ Example response:
{
"token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9..."
}
Step 3 — Connect MCP Inspector
- Open Inspector UI
- Set Transport Type: SSE
- URL:
http://localhost:3001/sse - Add Authorization Header:
Authorization: Bearer <your-token> - Click Connect
🎉 Success! Your server is now connected.
Step 4 — Test tools
Go to Tools tab in Inspector and click List Tools.
You will see:
- ✅
test - ✅
echo - ✅
get-time - ✅
random-number
Test them and enjoy!
