Recent experiences with Model Context Protocol development, including conferences, security work, and community updates from Build, MCP Developer Summit, and AI Engineer World’s Fair.

AI agents aren’t replacing developers - they’re amplifying what skilled engineers can accomplish. The job replacement panic might just be the wrong place to channel our energy into.

See how the latest Visual Studio Code Insiders builds seamlessly integrate with both new and legacy MCP authorization specs, offering a frictionless developer experience for accessing protected MCP servers with any OAuth provider.

Learn how to protect Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers from confused deputy attacks when implementing Dynamic Client Registration, and how Azure API Management can help mitigate these security risks.

A super-quick overview of the new MCP authorization specification and how it improves security and flexibility for MCP servers.

Fix that annoying issue where authentication windows appear behind your MCP client by implementing smarter window handle discovery. This walkthrough shows you how to properly parent WAM dialogs to VS Code, Claude Desktop, and other MCP clients.

Implement secure, enterprise-ready Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers protected by Entra ID authentication using Azure API Management and Azure Functions. This complete guide walks you through creating a confidential client architecture that protects sensitive tokens while enabling secure LLM tool access.

Learn how to authenticate local Model Context Protocol servers with Entra ID using Windows Web Account Manager (WAM). This practical guide shows how to implement interactive user authentication in local MCP servers without complex OAuth flows.

The Model Context Protocol introduces familiar security challenges we’ve seen before. Let’s not ignore them and step on the same rakes millions stepped on before.

A proposed RFC for MCP authorization that lets developers leverage existing identity providers instead of implementing OAuth from scratch, making secure MCP servers easier to build without security expertise.
