We've been getting great questions about MCP authentication — especially from users running agents in headless or server environments. Here's everything you need to know.

Personal Access Tokens (PAT) support — shipping in 1–2 days

We've prioritized PAT-based MCP authorization and it's nearly done. We'll post an update here as soon as it ships. If you prefer waiting for native Tokens support, it's just around the corner.

Headless workaround — works right now

If you're using an agent like OpenClaw in headless mode (no browser), you can use mcp-remote as a bridge. It's an open-source npm package that sits between your agent and our MCP server, handling the OAuth flow on your behalf so your headless box never needs a browser.

Prerequisites: Node.js must be installed on both machines (the one with a browser and the headless box). Run node -v to check.

1. Run the bridge on a machine that has a browser

```npx mcp-remote https://app.plurality.network/mcp```

A browser window will open asking you to authorize access. Complete the flow once. This can be your laptop or any desktop machine — it just needs a browser.

2. Copy the auth tokens to your headless box

After authorizing, tokens are saved to ~/.mcp-auth/ on that machine. Copy the entire directory to the same path on your headless box using scp, rsync, or any file transfer you prefer:

3. Run the bridge on the headless box too

```npx mcp-remote https://app.plurality.network/mcp```

This time it will find the tokens in ~/.mcp-auth/ and skip the browser step entirely.

4. Point your agent at the bridge

In your agent's MCP config, set the command to run mcp-remote instead of connecting to our server directly. The exact config field depends on your agent — here's what it looks like for common setups:

OpenClaw / Claude Desktop (mcp_config.json):

```

{

"mcpServers": {

"plurality": {

"command": "npx",

"args": ["mcp-remote",

"https://app.plurality.network/mcp"]

}

}

}

```

If your agent uses a different config format, the key idea is the same.

Token auto-refresh: The ~/.mcp-auth/ directory stores both your access token and a refresh key. The refresh key is valid for 30 days from the last time it was used — so as long as your agent runs at least once within any 30-day window, it will auto-refresh silently. You only need to repeat the browser auth step if the session has been completely idle for over 30 days.

Hey AppSumo fam! 👋

We built AI Context Flow out of pure frustration. Every time we switched between ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or a custom LLM app, we were back to square one of re-explaining our brand voice, project context, and workflows from scratch. It was exhausting, and it was slowing us down.

So we built the universal memory layer AI was always missing: one unified context bank that travels with you across every model, every tool, every session, every website. Add it once. Your AI remembers it everywhere.

But we're just getting started. Here's what's coming for the community:

📦 Team Plans: Shared context libraries for your whole team are on the way. (Heads up: you can already share contexts with individual teammates today.)

🛒 Context Marketplace: We're building a place where you can publish, discover, and monetize your best contexts. Whether it's a killer prompt system for LLM SEO, a set of skills to audit websites, a legal brief template, an epic fitness regimen or a brand voice guide. If you've built something valuable, you'll soon be able to share it with the world and get rewarded for it.

We're giving AppSumo members lifetime access now, before any of this goes mainstream. You're not just buying a tool, you're getting in on the ground floor of how AI memory works.

P.s. A review on the listing means a great deal to us and helps us focus on the features that matter the most. Let's build something great together.
