Hosting

Remote, hosted by Clerk

Transport

Streamable HTTP

Endpoint

https://mcp.clerk.com/mcp

Authentication

OAuth sign-in is required for all tools. The user selects a Clerk workspace; effective access follows workspace role and granted OAuth scopes. The server redacts secret configuration values and does not return instance secret keys.

Requirements

• MCP client supporting Streamable HTTP
• Clerk CLI is optional for automatic multi-client setup

Setup steps

1. Connect to https://mcp.clerk.com/mcp and complete Clerk OAuth sign-in, then select the intended workspace and approve scopes.
2. For supported clients, `clerk mcp install` registers the server; other clients can add the remote endpoint directly.
3. Review write/production-creation tools and confirm intended scopes before use.

Exact 21-tool hosted inventory from current docs. Account actions are OAuth/workspace-scope governed; creating production instances is irreversible and requires confirm=true.
