OAuth 2.1 + PKCE authentication for mcvsphere MCP server.
Features:
- OIDC integration via FastMCP's OIDCProxy
- Authentik identity provider support
- Dynamic Client Registration for MCP clients
- PKCE flow for secure authorization
- Permission groups mapped from Authentik groups
- Audit logging with user identity
Tested end-to-end with Claude Code CLI.
- Remove required_scopes validation (Authentik doesn't embed scopes in JWT)
- Add oauth_base_url config for proper HTTPS callback URLs
- Add docker-compose.dev.yml for host proxy via Caddy
- Update docker-compose.oauth.yml with unique domain label
Authentik uses opaque access tokens that don't include scope claims.
Authentication is enforced at the IdP level, so scope validation in
the token is unnecessary and was causing 401 errors.
- Service Account + OAuth Audit model for vCenter integration
- Authentik as OIDC provider with JWT validation
- Permission escalation based on OAuth groups
- Credential broker pattern for user mapping
- Implementation checklist and environment variables

README rewritten with comprehensive documentation of all 94 tools.
FileInfo attributes (owner, modificationTime, size, type) vary across
guest OS types. Use getattr with defaults to prevent AttributeError
when these optional fields are missing.
Mark tools that handle already-in-target-state gracefully:
- storage_vmotion: returns "no_migration_needed" if already on target
- convert_to_template: returns "already_template" if already converted
- convert_to_vm: returns "already_vm" if already a VM
This signals to LLM clients that these operations are safe to retry.
VCenterOpsMixin provides tools that require vCenter Server:
Storage vMotion:
- storage_vmotion: Move VM disks to different datastore
- move_vm_disk: Move specific disk to different datastore
Template Management:
- convert_to_template: Convert VM to template
- convert_to_vm: Convert template back to VM
- deploy_from_template: Deploy new VM from template
Folder Organization:
- list_folders: List VM folders in datacenter
- create_folder: Create new VM folder
- move_vm_to_folder: Move VM to different folder
Tasks & Events:
- list_recent_tasks: List recent vCenter tasks
- list_recent_events: List recent vCenter events
Cluster Operations:
- list_clusters: List clusters with DRS/HA status
- get_drs_recommendations: Get DRS recommendations for cluster
Also fixes empty-list serialization issue in FastMCP by returning
informative messages when results are empty.
