```
Check if the MCP endpoint requires authentication by making a test request.
**Returns:**
- True if auth appears to be required, False otherwise
## Classes
### `ClientNotFoundError` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L38" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
Raised when OAuth client credentials are not found on the server.
### `StoredToken` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L44" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
Token storage format with absolute expiry time.
### `FileTokenStorage` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L59" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
File-based token storage implementation for OAuth credentials and tokens.
Implements the mcp.client.auth.TokenStorage protocol.
Each instance is tied to a specific server URL for proper token isolation.
Uses JSONFileStorage internally for consistent file handling.
**Methods:**
#### `get_base_url` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L75" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
```python
get_base_url(url: str) -> str
```
Extract the base URL (scheme + host) from a URL.
#### `get_tokens` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L96" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
```python
get_tokens(self) -> OAuthToken | None
```
Load tokens from file storage.
#### `set_tokens` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L132" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
```python
set_tokens(self, tokens: OAuthToken) -> None
```
Save tokens to file storage.
#### `get_client_info` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L149" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
```python
get_client_info(self) -> OAuthClientInformationFull | None
```
Load client information from file storage.
#### `set_client_info` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L179" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
```python
set_client_info(self, client_info: OAuthClientInformationFull) -> None
```
Save client information to file storage.
#### `clear` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L185" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
```python
clear(self) -> None
```
Clear all cached data for this server.
Note: This is a synchronous method for backward compatibility.
Uses direct file operations instead of async storage methods.
#### `clear_all` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L199" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
```python
clear_all(cls, cache_dir: Path | None = None) -> None
```
Clear all cached data for all servers.
### `OAuth` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L242" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
OAuth client provider for MCP servers with browser-based authentication.
This class provides OAuth authentication for FastMCP clients by opening
a browser for user authorization and running a local callback server.
**Methods:**
#### `redirect_handler` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L322" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
```python
redirect_handler(self, authorization_url: str) -> None
```
Open browser for authorization, with pre-flight check for invalid client.
#### `callback_handler` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L343" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
```python
callback_handler(self) -> tuple[str, str | None]
```
Handle OAuth callback and return (auth_code, state).
#### `async_auth_flow` <sup><a href="https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp/blob/main/src/fastmcp/client/auth/oauth.py#L376" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
```python
async_auth_flow(self, request: httpx.Request) -> AsyncGenerator[httpx.Request, httpx.Response]
```
HTTPX auth flow with automatic retry on stale cached credentials.
If the OAuth flow fails due to invalid/stale client credentials,
clears the cache and retries once with fresh registration.
