# Authentication Guide

How **`@buildaureon/mcp`** `v0.1.10` authenticates to the live AUREON API — aligned with `@buildaureon/sdk`, safe for humans and for agents that call the **54** tools over hosted HTTP or local stdio.

|

## Who this is for
|
|
10
|
+
|
|
11
|
+
- **Agent operators** wiring Cursor or Claude Desktop to the hosted URL or to stdio with an issued developer key
|
|
12
|
+
- **Integrators** comparing MCP auth to the typed SDK client
|
|
13
|
+
- **Security reviewers** checking that private keys never enter the MCP process
|
|
14
|
+
- **Agents** reading this file as context before calling `aureon_me`, restore, or vault prepare tools
|
|
15
|
+
|
|
16
|
+
If you have not configured the host yet, start with [./setup.md](./setup.md), then return here for credential semantics.

## Goals of MCP auth
|
|
21
|
+
|
|
22
|
+
1. Reach the official API `https://api.aureonlabs.network` on mainnet. Stay on testnet with `AUREON_NETWORK=testnet`. Public Living Capital is still the testnet console.
|
|
23
|
+
2. Bind control-plane actions to a wallet identity (issued key or Bearer session).
|
|
24
|
+
3. Keep signing and broadcasting of on-chain vault steps **outside** MCP.
|
|
25
|
+
4. Prefer a long-lived issued key for always-on agents over interactive wallet handshakes.
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
The operator utility at [app.aureonlabs.network](https://app.aureonlabs.network) remains wallet-Bearer oriented for humans. MCP and the SDK share the issued-key path for automation.
|
|
28
|
+
|
|
29
|
+
### Hosted URL vs stdio
|
|
30
|
+
|
|
31
|
+
| How you connect | Where the issued key lives |
|
|
32
|
+
| --- | --- |
|
|
33
|
+
| `https://mcp.aureonlabs.network/mcp` | Optional. URL-only for open tools. Your wallet tools need `X-Aureon-Api-Key`. |
|
|
34
|
+
| `npx -y @buildaureon/mcp` | In the host `env` as `AUREON_API_KEY` (your Developers key). |
|
|
35
|
+
|
|
36
|
+
Private keys stay out of both. Hosted without a header is not your wallet. Hosted with `X-Aureon-Api-Key` is your issued key. Stdio identity is the key you set in env.

## Credential types
|
|
41
|
+
|
|
42
|
+
| Credential | Where you get it | Put it in MCP? | What it does |
|
|
43
|
+
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|
|
44
|
+
| **Issued developer API key** | Developers page → create key | Yes — `AUREON_API_KEY` | Product access **and** wallet identity for control-plane tools. **Recommended.** |
|
|
45
|
+
| **Bootstrap / env-style key** | Rare / special environments | Only if explicitly issued for that purpose as `AUREON_API_KEY` | Same transport header as an issued key; treat with equal secrecy. Prefer Developers-issued keys for production agents. |
|
|
46
|
+
| **Wallet Bearer token** | Wallet sign-in, or `aureon_verify_wallet` | Optional — `AUREON_AUTH_TOKEN` or in-process after verify | Session for utility-style identity. **Wins** when both key and Bearer are present. |
|
|
47
|
+
| **Wallet private key** | Your wallet / HSM / signing bot | **Never** in MCP env | Sign and broadcast deposit/withdraw txs **outside** MCP after prepare tools return unsigned steps. |
|
|
48
|
+
|
|
49
|
+
Plain language:
|
|
50
|
+
|
|
51
|
+
- **Issued key** = “this agent may call the API as my Developers-bound wallet.”
|
|
52
|
+
- **Bearer** = “this process has an active wallet session.”
|
|
53
|
+
- **Private key** = “this other process may move funds on chain.” MCP does not hold that.
|
|

## Environment variables (auth-focused)
|
|
58
|
+
|
|
59
|
+
| Variable | Role |
|
|
60
|
+
| --- | --- |
|
|
61
|
+
| `AUREON_API_KEY` | Preferred. Issued developer key. |
|
|
62
|
+
| `AUREON_AUTH_TOKEN` | Optional Bearer. Use when you intentionally want a session without (or in addition to) a key — see conflict rules below. |
|
|
63
|
+
| `AUREON_NETWORK` | Optional. Omit for official API / mainnet. Set `testnet` to stay on testnet. |
|
|
64
|
+
| `AUREON_API_URL` | Optional override of `https://api.aureonlabs.network`. |
|
|
65
|
+
|
|
66
|
+
Startup rule: at least one of `AUREON_API_KEY` or `AUREON_AUTH_TOKEN` must be set or the MCP process exits with a clear error.

## Recommended path: issued developer key
|
|
73
|
+
|
|
74
|
+
This is the default for Cursor, Claude, and other always-on agents.
|
|
75
|
+
|
|
76
|
+
### Steps
|
|
77
|
+
|
|
78
|
+
1. Issue a key at [app.aureonlabs.network](https://app.aureonlabs.network) → **Developers**.
|
|
79
|
+
2. Connect the wallet that should own objectives and Capital Book state.
|
|
80
|
+
3. Open **Developers** and create a key (name it after the host, e.g. `cursor-mcp`).
|
|
81
|
+
4. Copy the secret once into the host MCP `env` as `AUREON_API_KEY`.
|
|
82
|
+
5. Do **not** set `AUREON_AUTH_TOKEN` unless you have a specific reason.
|
|
83
|
+
6. Restart the host and call `aureon_ping` then `aureon_me`.
|
|
84
|
+
|
|
85
|
+
Minimal env (official API):
|
|
86
|
+
|
|
87
|
+
```bash
|
|
88
|
+
AUREON_API_KEY=aureon_....
|
|
89
|
+
# AUREON_NETWORK=testnet # stay on testnet on the same official host
|
|
90
|
+
```
|
|
91
|
+
|
|
92
|
+
With only the issued key, agents can sync portfolio, create objectives, fetch restore plans, restore, refresh watchdog, and manage developer keys — without an interactive signature each session.
|
|
93
|
+
|
|
94
|
+
Rotate or revoke from the same Developers page if the secret is exposed. Update the host config immediately after rotation.
|
|
95
|
+
|
|
96
|
+

|
|
97
|
+
|
|
98
|
+
## Optional wallet handshake (Bearer session)
|
|
99
|
+
|
|
100
|
+
Use when you need a utility-style session, when debugging auth, or when an issued key is unavailable and you already hold a Bearer.
|
|
101
|
+
|
|
102
|
+
### Tools involved
|
|
103
|
+
|
|
104
|
+
| Tool | Role |
|
|
105
|
+
| --- | --- |
|
|
106
|
+
| `aureon_get_auth_nonce` | Fetch an EIP-191 challenge message for an address |
|
|
107
|
+
| `aureon_verify_wallet` | Submit address + message + signature (+ optional invite); **stores** the returned Bearer in-process |
|
|
108
|
+
| `aureon_logout` | Revoke the session server-side and clear the in-process token |
|
|
109
|
+
| `aureon_me` | Show the wallet for the active key or Bearer |
|
|
110
|
+
| `aureon_dev_login` | Preview-only login — **not** available on the production API |
|
|
111
|
+
|
|
112
|
+
### Sequence
|
|
113
|
+
|
|
114
|
+
```text
|
|
115
|
+
Agent → aureon_get_auth_nonce(address)
|
|
116
|
+
← challenge message
|
|
117
|
+
|
|
118
|
+
Agent → host wallet signs message (EIP-191) [outside MCP]
|
|
119
|
+
← signature
|
|
120
|
+
|
|
121
|
+
Agent → aureon_verify_wallet(address, message, signature, inviteCode?)
|
|
122
|
+
← token; MCP session.setToken(token)
|
|
123
|
+
|
|
124
|
+
Later tools use getAccessToken() from the in-process session provider.
|
|
125
|
+
```
|
|
126
|
+
|
|
127
|
+
`inviteCode` is only for the optional wallet Bearer handshake when the API asks for it. It is not required to use hosted MCP or stdio with an issued key.
|
|
128
|
+
|
|
129
|
+
You may also seed `AUREON_AUTH_TOKEN` in the host env if you already obtained a Bearer elsewhere. That token is loaded into the same in-process session provider at startup.
|
|
130
|
+
|
|
131
|
+
Prefer issued keys for unattended agents. Handshakes need a human (or separate signing host) for every new session after logout or process restart — unless the Bearer is re-injected via env.
|
|
132

|
+
## How MCP stores Bearer in-process
|
|
136
|
+
|
|
137
|
+
On startup, `@buildaureon/mcp` builds an `@buildaureon/sdk` client with:
|
|
138
|
+
|
|
139
|
+
- `apiKey` from `AUREON_API_KEY` (if set)
|
|
140
|
+
- `getAccessToken` from a small session provider initialized with `AUREON_AUTH_TOKEN` (if set)
|
|
141
|
+
|
|
142
|
+
When `aureon_verify_wallet` (or `aureon_dev_login` on a preview API) succeeds, the MCP layer calls `session.setToken(token)`.
|
|
143
|
+
|
|
144
|
+
When `aureon_logout` succeeds, it clears the in-process token after the API revoke.
|
|
145
|
+
|
|
146
|
+
Important properties:
|
|
147
|
+
|
|
148
|
+
- The Bearer lives **only in the MCP process memory** (plus whatever you put in host env).
|
|
149
|
+
- Restarting the host clears memory unless `AUREON_AUTH_TOKEN` is still in env.
|
|
150
|
+
- MCP does not write tokens to disk and does not sync them into Cursor chat history by itself — but agents may echo tool results; treat tool output as sensitive.
|
|
151
|
+
|
|
152
|
+
Issued keys do not need this session store for identity. The key header alone identifies the Developers-bound wallet.
|
|
153
|
+
|
|
154
|
+
---
|
|
155
|
+
|
|
156
|
+
## `aureon_me` and `aureon_logout`
|
|
157
|
+
|
|
158
|
+
### `aureon_me`
|
|
159
|
+
|
|
160
|
+
Returns the wallet bound to the **effective** credential the gateway sees: issued key identity, or Bearer session when a Bearer is active and winning.
|
|
161
|
+
|
|
162
|
+
Use it as the first identity check after setup:
|
|
163
|
+
|
|
164
|
+
- Expected address matches your Developers wallet → good.
|
|
165
|
+
- Unexpected address → you likely have a stale Bearer winning over the key (see conflict rules).
|
|
166
|
+
|
|
167
|
+
### `aureon_logout`
|
|
168
|
+
|
|
169
|
+
Revokes the current Bearer session and clears the in-process token.
|
|
170
|
+
|
|
171
|
+
It does **not** revoke your issued developer API key. Key lifecycle is managed on the Developers page (`aureon_revoke_api_key` / pause toggle tools, or the UI).
|
|
172
|
+
|
|
173
|
+
After logout, if only `AUREON_API_KEY` remains, subsequent tools continue as the key-bound wallet. If you had neither key nor a remaining env Bearer, authenticated calls will fail until you configure credentials again.

## What MCP never does

178
|

|
|
179
|
+
| Action | MCP behavior |
|
|
180
|
+
| --- | --- |
|
|
181
|
+
| Hold a wallet private key | Never — not in env, not in tool args, not in memory by design |
|
|
182
|
+
| Sign EIP-191 auth challenges | Host / wallet signs; MCP only transports nonce and verify |
|
|
183
|
+
| Sign or broadcast vault txs | `aureon_prepare_vault_*` returns **unsigned** steps only |
|
|
184
|
+
| Custodialize funds | Non-custodial; settlement remains plan-driven on the API / vault |
|
|
185
|
+
| Replace the operator utility | Humans still use the app; MCP is the agent adapter |
|
|
186
|
+
| Enable `aureon_dev_login` on production | Production rejects it; use issued keys |
|
|
187
|
+
|
|
188
|
+
If an agent asks for a private key “so MCP can deposit,” refuse and point to prepare → external sign → sync. See [./security.md](./security.md).

## Conflict rules: key + Bearer together
|
|
193
|
+
|
|
194
|
+
Both credentials may be present:
|
|
195
|
+
|
|
196
|
+
1. Host sets `AUREON_API_KEY` **and** `AUREON_AUTH_TOKEN`, or
|
|
197
|
+
2. Host sets only the key, then the agent runs `aureon_verify_wallet` and stores a Bearer in-process.
|
|
198
|
+
|
|
199
|
+
**Rule:** when both are sent on a request, the **Bearer wins** for wallet identity.
|
|
200
|
+
|
|
201
|
+
Implications:
|
|
202
|
+
|
|
203
|
+
- An old Bearer can mask a freshly rotated issued key’s wallet.
|
|
204
|
+
- Debugging “wrong wallet on `aureon_me`” almost always means clear Bearer: call `aureon_logout`, remove `AUREON_AUTH_TOKEN` from env, restart the host.
|
|
205
|
+
- For always-on agents, keep config key-only so identity is predictable across restarts.
|
|
206
|
+
|
|
207
|
+
Bootstrap or special env keys still travel as `AUREON_API_KEY`. They do not change the Bearer-wins rule when a session token is also attached.

## Private key: outside MCP only
|
|
212
|
+
|
|
213
|
+
Vault deposit and withdraw are two-phase:
|
|
214
|
+
|
|
215
|
+
1. **MCP / SDK prepare** — `aureon_prepare_vault_deposit` or `aureon_prepare_vault_withdraw` returns unsigned calldata / steps.
|
|
216
|
+
2. **External signer** — a wallet UI, hardware wallet, or a separate `@buildaureon/sdk` script with a private key broadcasts the txs.
|
|
217
|
+
3. **Sync** — `aureon_sync_portfolio` / `aureon_get_vault` to refresh Capital Book state.
|
|
218
|
+
|
|
219
|
+
Never paste a private key into MCP tool arguments or host env “for convenience.” That expands the blast radius of every chat that can invoke tools.

## Agent-safe practices
|
|
240
|
+
|
|
241
|
+
1. **Prefer issued keys** in host config; avoid interactive Bearer for unattended loops.
|
|
242
|
+
2. **Never request private keys** in chat; guide operators to prepare → external broadcast.
|
|
243
|
+
3. **Do not echo full API keys or Bearers** back into long chat logs when summarizing tool results.
|
|
244
|
+
4. **Call `aureon_me` once** after connect to confirm identity before write tools.
|
|
245
|
+
5. **On identity mismatch**, clear Bearer before creating objectives or restoring.
|
|
246
|
+
6. **Treat Developers keys like passwords** — rotate on leak; use labeled keys per host.
|
|
247
|
+
7. **Do not expose your stdio process** — use `https://mcp.aureonlabs.network/mcp` for the official host; do not publish your own child process.
|
|
248
|
+
8. **Read** [./agent-guide.md](./agent-guide.md) before multi-step restore or market-event rehearsals.
|
|
249
|
+
9. **Respect locked objective fields** — recreate rather than fighting update errors (see tools doc).
|
|
250
|
+
10. **Assume tool output may be logged** by the host; minimize secret material in responses.

## FAQ
|
|
279
|
+
|
|
280
|
+
### Is an issued key enough for restore?
|
|
281
|
+
|
|
282
|
+
Yes. `aureon_restore_objective` and related control-plane tools authenticate with the issued key. On-chain funding of the vault still needs external signing when deposits are required.
|
|
283
|
+
|
|
284
|
+
### When should I use Bearer instead?
|
|
285
|
+
|
|
286
|
+
Interactive debugging, parity with the operator utility session model, or short-lived demos. Not the default for scheduled agents.
|
|
287
|
+
|
|
288
|
+
### What is a “bootstrap” key in this doc?
|
|
289
|
+
|
|
290
|
+
A key supplied via environment rather than freshly minted in the UI mid-session. Operationally it still goes in `AUREON_API_KEY`. Prefer Developers-issued keys you can pause and revoke from the console.
|
|
291
|
+
|
|
292
|
+
### Does logout delete my API key?
|
|
293
|
+
|
|
294
|
+
No. Logout clears Bearer session state. Manage keys on the Developers page or via developer tools.
|
|
295
|
+
|
|
296
|
+
### Can MCP and the SDK share the same issued key?
|
|
297
|
+
|
|
298
|
+
Yes. Same live API, same key family. Revoking the key affects both surfaces.
|
|
299
|
+
|
|
300
|
+
### Why does Bearer win over the key?
|
|
301
|
+
|
|
302
|
+
So an explicit wallet session can override key identity when operators intentionally complete a handshake. For agents, avoid that ambiguity by not setting Bearer.
|
|
303
|
+
|
|
304
|
+
### Where do I configure credentials?
|
|
305
|
+
|
|
306
|
+
In the MCP host `env` block — see Cursor / Claude examples in [./setup.md](./setup.md). Primary launch remains `npx -y @buildaureon/mcp`.

## Rotating credentials safely
|
|
311
|
+
|
|
312
|
+
When a key may have leaked (pasted in chat, committed to a repo, shared in a screenshot):
|
|
313
|
+
|
|
314
|
+
1. Open [app.aureonlabs.network](https://app.aureonlabs.network) → **Developers**.
|
|
315
|
+
2. Pause or revoke the compromised key immediately.
|
|
316
|
+
3. Create a replacement key with a new label.
|
|
317
|
+
4. Update every MCP host `env` that still references the old secret.
|
|
318
|
+
5. Restart those hosts so in-memory clients reload.
|
|
319
|
+
6. Call `aureon_me` once to confirm the bound wallet is unchanged and authorized.
|
|
320
|
+
|
|
321
|
+
If a Bearer may have leaked, call `aureon_logout` from a trusted session (if still valid), remove `AUREON_AUTH_TOKEN` from env, and re-verify only if you still need a session. Prefer switching the agent to issued-key-only afterward.
|
|
322
|
+
|
|
323
|
+
Do not reuse the compromised secret “temporarily.” Treat rotation as mandatory once exposure is plausible.

## Relationship to the SDK
|
|
328
|
+
|
|
329
|
+
`@buildaureon/mcp` does not invent a second auth protocol. It configures `createAureonClient` from `@buildaureon/sdk` with the same headers the SDK would send in a script:
|
|
330
|
+
|
|
331
|
+
- Issued key → API key header / client option
|
|
332
|
+
- Bearer → access token via the session provider
|
|
333
|
+
- Base URL → `https://api.aureonlabs.network` by default (mainnet). `AUREON_NETWORK=testnet` stays on testnet.
|
|
334
|
+
|
|
335
|
+
If a typed SDK script works with your issued key but MCP fails, compare env names (`AUREON_API_KEY` vs hard-coded client options) and confirm the host actually injects env into the stdio child process.
|
|
336
|
+
|
|
337
|
+
Package version for this guide: **`@buildaureon/mcp` `v0.1.10`**.

## Quick reference checklist
|
|
342
|
+
|
|
343
|
+
- [ ] Issued key from Developers page in `AUREON_API_KEY`
|
|
344
|
+
- [ ] No private key anywhere in MCP config
|
|
345
|
+
- [ ] `AUREON_AUTH_TOKEN` unset unless you need a session
|
|
346
|
+
- [ ] `aureon_me` shows the expected wallet
|
|
347
|
+
- [ ] You know Bearer wins if both are present
|
|
348
|
+
- [ ] Vault moves use prepare tools + external signer
|
|
349
|
+
- [ ] Leaked secrets → revoke / rotate on Developers
|
|
350
|
+
- [ ] After rotation, every host env updated and restarted
