ScopeGate
Never hand an AI agent a full OAuth scope again.
ScopeGate sits between your agents and the accounts they reach — yours or your clients'. You connect a service once, tick the exact actions an agent may call, and hand it an MCP endpoint that can do nothing else. Every call is logged; one click kills the key without touching the connection.
- Per-action permissions —
gmail:read_emailsyes,gmail:send_emailno. Finer than any provider's OAuth scopes. - Audit trail — who, which tool, what outcome, how long. Per project, exportable.
- One-click revocation — regenerate an endpoint key; the service connection stays.
- Tokens never leave — AES-256-GCM at rest, refreshed automatically, agents only ever see
sg_….
Run it yourself in one command:
docker compose --profile local up
Open http://localhost:3000 — the admin login is printed in the container logs on first boot. Details in Quick Start.
Tech Stack
- Framework: Next.js 16 (App Router)
- Language: TypeScript
- Database: PostgreSQL + Prisma 7
- UI: Tailwind CSS v4, shadcn/ui
- Auth: Better Auth (database-backed sessions, Prisma adapter)
- MCP:
@modelcontextprotocol/sdk(Streamable HTTP) - Package Manager: pnpm
Quick Start (self-hosted)
Full feature parity with the hosted cloud version — nothing is cut for self-host.
git clone https://github.com/alifanov/scopegate.git
cd scopegate
docker compose --profile local up
Open http://localhost:3000. No .env file needed: a local
Postgres and a fresh BETTER_AUTH_SECRET are provisioned automatically, and the
generated admin login is printed once in the app container logs on first boot
(look for Generated admin login) — search it with docker compose logs app | grep -A4 "First run".
The password is also saved to the app_data volume so it survives restarts.
To connect real services (Gmail, LinkedIn, GitHub, …), copy .env.example to .env
and fill in the OAuth client id/secret for the providers you want — every block is
independent and optional, a provider without credentials simply doesn't show up.
Development Setup
Prerequisites
- Node.js 20.19+, 22.12+ or 24+ (required by Prisma 7)
- pnpm
- PostgreSQL
Setup
- Clone the repository and install dependencies:
pnpm install
- Copy the environment file and fill in your values:
cp .env.example .env
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
DATABASE_URL | PostgreSQL connection string |
BETTER_AUTH_SECRET | Secret key for session signing |
BETTER_AUTH_URL | App base URL (e.g. http://localhost:3000) |
ADMIN_EMAIL | Bootstrap admin email |
ADMIN_PASSWORD | Bootstrap admin password |
- Run database migrations:
pnpm prisma migrate dev
- Start the development server:
pnpm dev
Open http://localhost:3000.

How It Works
- Login — sign in with admin credentials (bootstrapped from env vars on first run)
- Create a Project — organize endpoints and services by project
- Connect a Service — add a service connection to the project
- Create an MCP Endpoint — select a service connection and pick specific permissions (e.g.
gmail:read_emails,calendar:create_event) - Use the MCP URL — plug the endpoint URL into any MCP-compatible AI agent; only the allowed actions are exposed
- Monitor — track every request in the audit log
Permissions
A permission is a single action, not a service — gmail:read_emails can be granted
without gmail:send_email. Groups are derived from src/lib/provider-registry.ts
(27 providers: Google Workspace, Google Ads & Search Console, Meta, LinkedIn,
Twitter, Slack, Notion, Jira, HubSpot, Salesforce, Stripe, Airtable, …) and listed
in src/lib/mcp/permissions.ts. Adding a provider means editing the registry —
transport, token strategy and permission groups are all derived from it.
A few Google examples:
| Group | Actions |
|---|---|
| Gmail | gmail:read_emails, gmail:send_email, gmail:list_labels, gmail:search_emails |
| Google Calendar | calendar:list_events, calendar:create_event, calendar:update_event, calendar:delete_event |
| Google Drive | drive:list_files, drive:read_file, drive:create_file, drive:delete_file |
Database Schema
- User — authentication, team membership
- Session — database-backed auth sessions
- Account — auth provider credentials (email/password)
- Project — logical grouping for services and endpoints
- TeamMember — user-project relationship with roles (owner/member)
- ServiceConnection — OAuth tokens for connected services
- McpEndpoint — MCP endpoint with API key, rate limit, active status
- EndpointPermission — allowed actions per endpoint
- AuditLog — request log with action, status, duration, errors
