FastAPI-MCP is a tool that lets you easily turn your FastAPI web API endpoints into Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools, which AI agents can use directly. It requires almost no setup—just connect it to your FastAPI app, and it automatically preserves your request/response data models and documentation. It also includes built-in authentication using your existing FastAPI security methods. You can run the MCP server inside your app or separately, and it communicates efficiently using FastAPI’s ASGI interface. This makes it simple to integrate AI capabilities with your existing FastAPI services without rewriting code, saving you time and effort while keeping your API secure and well-documented[1][5].

A generic, spec-compliant, thorough implementation of the #OAuth request-signing logic for python
OAuth often seems complicated and difficult-to-implement. There are several prominent libraries for handling OAuth requests, but they all suffer from one or both of the following:
They predate the OAuth 1.0 spec, AKA RFC 5849.
They predate the OAuth 2.0 spec, AKA RFC 6749.
They assume the usage of a specific HTTP request library.
OAuthLib is a generic utility which implements the logic of OAuth without assuming a specific HTTP request object or web framework. Use it to graft OAuth client support onto your favorite HTTP library, or provide support onto your favourite web framework. If you’re a maintainer of such a library, write a thin veneer on top of OAuthLib and get OAuth support for very little effort.

OAuth 2 Simplified
Sun, Jul 29, 2012 9:30am -07:00
Many services such as #Facebook, #Github, and #Google have already deployed OAuth 2 servers, and deployed implementations win.
The #OAuth 2 spec itself leaves many decisions up to the implementor. Instead of describing all possible decisions that need to be made to successfully implement OAuth 2, this post makes decisions that are appropriate for most implementations.
This post is an attempt to describe OAuth 2 in a simplified format to help developers and service providers implement the protocol.
