+description: Replace FrontMCP's built-in OAuth pages with custom React components using the auth.ui slot→file map and auth.extras name→handler map (no decorator, no class) plus the @frontmcp/ui/auth hooks.
+---
+
+# Custom Authorization UI (`auth.ui` / `auth.extras`)
+
+FrontMCP's `local` and `remote` OAuth modes serve built-in HTML for the login, consent, incremental, federated, and error steps. The `auth.ui` **slot→file map** replaces any of those slots with **your own React component** while the framework keeps owning everything security-sensitive — CSRF, the Content-Security-Policy, anti-clickjacking headers, the pending-authorization state, the submit target, and the OAuth redirect. **You write only the UI.**
+
+There is **no decorator and no class** — a slot is just a `.tsx` path, and an extra is just a handler function. If no `auth.ui` slot is configured, the built-in pages are served unchanged — the feature is purely additive and opt-in per slot.
+
+## Two halves

+| ---------- | ------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Server** | `@frontmcp/sdk` (`auth.ui` / `auth.extras`) | Transpiles your component's `.tsx` once (server-side, single-file transform — deps stay external), inlines it as an ES module + an import-map, injects the flow state, mints/verifies CSRF, sets CSP. It never bundles or renders your component server-side.                    |
+| **Client** | `@frontmcp/ui/auth`                         | The framework-free contract (`AuthFlowState`, wire constants) **plus** hooks (`useAuthFlow`, …), `<AuthPageWrapper>`, and `mountAuthPage` that read the state, render the component in the browser, and drive submits. Loaded in the browser **from esm.sh** via the import-map. |
+
+At request time the server serializes an `AuthFlowState` into `window.__FRONTMCP_AUTH__`, serves a page with an **empty** `#frontmcp-auth-root` mount node, an **`<script type="importmap">`** mapping `react` / `react-dom` / `@frontmcp/ui/auth` to **esm.sh** (the `@frontmcp/ui/auth` entry gets `?external=react,react-dom` for a single React), and an inline **`<script type="module">`** with your transpiled component + a `mountAuthPage(<YourComponent>)` tail. The browser loads the deps from esm.sh, runs the module, and `mountAuthPage` renders your component **client-side** into the empty node — there is **no bundling and no server-side React**, exactly how a `@Tool({ ui: { file } })` widget loads. `@frontmcp/ui` is browser-only — the SDK passes `@frontmcp/ui/auth` to the renderer only as an import-map specifier string and never imports it. Your component reads the state via the hooks and submits back to the OAuth callback.
+
+## Server: `auth.ui` — a slot→file map
+
+Map each slot to a sibling `.tsx`/`.jsx` source (default export); the SDK transpiles it once with esbuild and inlines it as an ES module (deps loaded from esm.sh via an import-map; `mountAuthPage` appended for you), exactly like a `@Tool({ ui: { file } })` widget. The path is **relative and auto-anchored to the config file's directory** — no `fileURLToPath`:
+
+```ts
+import { App } from '@frontmcp/sdk'; // or @FrontMcp
+
+@App({
+  auth: {
+    mode: 'local',
+    // slot → RELATIVE .tsx, auto-anchored to THIS config file's directory.
+    ui: { login: './auth/login.tsx' },
+  },
+})
+export default class Server {}
+```
+
+Absolute paths pass through unchanged. If the declaring file's directory can't be captured (exotic loader), the framework falls back to `process.cwd()` with a warning — use an absolute path if that's wrong.
+
+### Slots
+
+| Slot          | Replaces the built-in…                      | Key fields the component receives         |
+| ------------- | ------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
+| `login`       | Local sign-in page                          | `clientName`, `scopes`, `redirectUri`     |
+| `consent`     | Tool-consent screen                         | `tools[]` (selectable tool cards)         |
+| `incremental` | Single-app incremental authorization screen | `extras.appId` / `extras.appName`         |
+| `federated`   | Multi-provider selection                    | `providers[]` (selectable provider cards) |
+| `error`       | OAuth error page                            | `error` text                              |
+
+Map only the slots you want to customize — the rest keep their built-in pages.
+
+### Per-app scoping (`splitByApp`)
+
+`auth.ui` / `auth.extras` are **scoped to the auth config they live on** (like `consent`). Under `splitByApp`, each `@App({ auth: { mode, ui, extras } })` gets its OWN custom auth UI (paths anchored to that `@App` file); the parent multi-app scope uses the top-level `@FrontMcp({ auth })` (paths anchored to the server file).
+
+## Server: `auth.extras` — validated extra fields
+
+An `auth.extras[name]` entry is a **server handler function** that adds a server-validated side endpoint your page can POST to **mid-flow**, without finishing the authorization. Each accepted submission is appended to a per-`(pending-auth, extra)` accumulator the framework keeps; the response carries the full accumulator map back so the page refreshes without a reload.
+
+```ts
+import { type AuthExtraContext } from '@frontmcp/sdk';
+
+export async function addEnv(input: Record<string, unknown>, ctx: AuthExtraContext) {
+  const key = typeof input['key'] === 'string' ? input['key'].trim() : '';
+  if (!key) return { ok: false as const, error: 'key is required' };
+  if (ctx.current.some((it) => (it as { key?: string }).key === key)) {
+    return { ok: false as const, error: `"${key}" was already added` };
+  }
+  const value = typeof input['value'] === 'string' ? input['value'] : '';
+  // `addedItems` here is the list of NEW items to APPEND on success.
+  return { ok: true as const, addedItems: [{ key, value }] };
+}
+```
+
+The handler returns `{ ok, error?, addedItems?, sideEffects? }` (sync or async). The `ctx` is minimal and PII-free: `{ name, pendingAuthId?, current }` (`current` is what's already accepted for this extra). Declare it under `auth`: `@FrontMcp({ auth: { mode: 'local', extras: { 'envs:add': addEnv } } })`.

+
+### React hooks + wrapper + client mount
+
+- **`useAuthFlow()`** — the flow-state fields above plus a `submitFinish` handler. `<form onSubmit={submitFinish}>` `preventDefault`s, serializes the form, attaches `pending_auth_id` + `csrf` + the slot marker, posts to the callback, and follows the OAuth redirect.
+- **`useExtraField(name)`** — `{ onSubmit, result, pending }` for an `auth.extras` form. On success it merges the returned `addedItems` back into context.
+- **`useAddedItems(name)`** — the server-side accumulator for a named extra, reactively.
+- **`<AuthPageWrapper>`** — outer chrome that reads the injected state once, provides it via context, and (by default) renders the enclosing `<form>` with the `pending_auth_id` + `csrf` hidden fields so a no-JS submit still works. Pass `renderForm={false}` to supply your own forms.
+- **`mountAuthPage(Component, options?)`** — the client entrypoint; wraps `Component` in `<AuthPageWrapper>` and renders it (`createRoot(...).render(...)`) into the empty `#frontmcp-auth-root` node in the browser. Pure client render — no server markup to hydrate. **The SDK appends `mountAuthPage(<your default export>)` to the inlined module for you**, so a `file`-based component just needs a default export (loaded in the browser from esm.sh via the import-map).
+
+### Vanilla (no framework)
+
+`@frontmcp/ui/auth/vanilla` exposes the same flow without React: `getAuthFlow()` (read `window.__FRONTMCP_AUTH__`; `tryGetAuthFlow()` is tolerant), `getAddedItems(name)`, `submitFinish(formOrData?)`, and `submitExtra(name, formOrData?)`.
+
+## Routes the server adds
+
+When at least one `auth.extras` handler is configured (otherwise it 404s / falls through, so defaults are untouched):
+
+| Route             | Method | Purpose                                                                                                                                                                             |
+| ----------------- | ------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `/oauth/ui/extra` | `POST` | Routes an `auth.extras[name]` submission (the `action` field names the extra) to its handler; returns `{ ok, error?, addedItems?, sideEffects? }`. CSRF-verified (400 on mismatch). |
+
+There is **no `/oauth/ui/:slot.js` route** — the component is transpiled server-side and **inlined** into the authorize/callback page as a `<script type="module">` (deps from esm.sh via the import-map), so there is no separately-served bundle. The pages themselves are served by the existing `/oauth/authorize` + `/oauth/callback` flows; an `auth.ui` slot swaps the served page body (import-map + injected state + the inline transpiled module + empty mount) — the component renders client-side. The finish submit still posts to `/oauth/callback`.
+
+## Security — the framework owns it
+
+- **CSRF**: the server mints a per-pending-authorization token, stores it (echoed into `csrfToken`), and verifies it on the finish submit and every `auth.extras` POST with a constant-time compare. Your component never generates or checks it.
+- **CSP + anti-clickjacking**: the auth-UI HTML ships with a strict CSP — `default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' https://esm.sh; connect-src 'self' https://esm.sh; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' https://esm.sh; img-src 'self' data: https:; frame-ancestors 'none'; base-uri 'self'; form-action 'self'` — plus `X-Frame-Options: DENY`, `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`, `Referrer-Policy: no-referrer`. It allows `https://esm.sh` (deps) + `'unsafe-inline'` (the JSON-escaped state script) but **NOT `'unsafe-eval'`** — the transform is server-side, never in the browser.
+- **No PII**: the injected state carries OAuth client identifiers + control fields only.
+- **Fail-safe**: a component that can't be transpiled (missing / invalid `.tsx`) is logged (error cached so a broken file isn't retried each request) and **falls back to the built-in page** — a broken custom page can't take the server down.
+
+## Local dev / offline (esm.sh caveat)
+
+The browser loads `react`, `react-dom`, and `@frontmcp/ui/auth` from **esm.sh**. `react`/`react-dom` are always there, but `@frontmcp/ui/auth` resolves only once **published to npm**. In an unpublished monorepo, an in-browser render can't fetch it — though the SERVER still emits the full page (import-map + injected state + inline transpiled module), so HTTP-level checks pass; only the browser DOM render is affected. To render before publishing, map the specifier to a locally-served ESM URL via `@FrontMcp({ ui: { cdnOverrides } })`:
+
+```ts
+@FrontMcp({
+  ui: { cdnOverrides: { '@frontmcp/ui/auth': 'http://localhost:5173/ui-auth.mjs' } },
+  auth: { mode: 'local', ui: { login: './auth/login.tsx' } },
+})
+```
+
+A non-esm.sh override URL is left as-is (no `?external=react`). Once published, no overrides are needed.

+- **Deny on load/read** — loading a gated skill the caller can't access throws
+  `AuthorityDeniedError` (MCP code `-32003`), the same as a denied `tools/call`.

+  `skills/search` / `skills/list` (MCP), the `skill://index.json` discovery index and
+  skill-path autocomplete (SEP-2640), and `GET /skills` (HTTP).
+
+```typescript
+@Skill({ name: 'review-pr', description: '…', instructions: '…' })            // open to all
+@Skill({ name: 'internal-runbook', description: '…', instructions: '…',

+
+Two limitations to design around:
+
+- **List-time filtering is role/permission/claims-only.** Discovery runs without
+  request input, so `{ fromInput: '…' }` ABAC/ReBAC policies can't be evaluated when
+  filtering and will hide the skill from discovery. Use role/permission/claims
+  authorities for discoverable skills; input-dependent policies still enforce at
+  load time. (Same limitation applies to tools/resources/prompts.)
+- **HTTP skills discovery is fail-closed.** The Skills HTTP API uses a binary
+  api-key/bearer gate with no claims, so gated skills are hidden from `GET /skills`
+  and denied on `GET /skills/{id}` regardless of the bearer. Serve gated skills over
+  an MCP transport for claims-based access. Ungated skills are unaffected.
+
+Boot-time fail-fast covers skills too: a `@Skill` with `authorities` but no configured
+authorities engine fails server startup with `AuthConfigurationError`, exactly like a
+tool/resource/prompt/agent.

+`authorities: 'admin'` or `{ roles: { any: ['admin'] } }`.

+**HTTP skills discovery is fail-closed.** The Skills HTTP API authenticates with a
+binary api-key/bearer gate that surfaces no JWT claims, so authority-gated skills are
+hidden from `GET /skills` and denied on `GET /skills/{id}` regardless of the bearer.
+Serve gated skills over an MCP transport (full claims context) for claims-based access;
+skills without `authorities` are served over HTTP unchanged.

+## What This Demonstrates
+
+- Returning `credentials: [{ key, secret, metadata? }]` from `authenticate()` so FrontMCP persists them encrypted, keyed by the minted `sub`
+- Reading a per-session credential from a tool via `this.credentials.get(key)` (no `this.authProviders` wiring needed)
+- Prompting the agent to connect a missing credential mid-session with `this.credentials.requireConnect({ key })` (framework-signed `/oauth/connect` URL)
+- Understanding per-session rotation: a reconnect yields an empty vault and old ciphertext is undecryptable
