Partner MCP

Partner MCP is the delegation contract between AgentPress and a registered partner's MCP server. AgentPress signs short-lived EdDSA (Ed25519) JWTs that identify the acting end user; the partner verifies each token against your organization's public JWKS and operates on that user's behalf.

This applies to registered partner integrations only — it is distinct from the public MCP OAuth 2.1 flow for unknown clients. To connect an existing MCP server to your agents from the console, see the MCP Servers guide.

In this section

  • Spec v1 — the wire protocol: token shape, JWKS discovery, key rotation semantics, and the error contract.
  • Integration — wire the @agentpress/sdk verification helpers into your MCP server, end to end.
  • Error Reference — typed SDK error reasons mapped to the HTTP responses your server should return.

When to use this

Reach for Partner MCP when a trusted external platform hosts an MCP server that must act for a specific AgentPress user. If you only need to connect an existing MCP server to your agents, use the MCP Servers guide instead.
