Onboard a new DCR OAuth MCP catalog entry with provider-doc vetting and curl probes.

  • Works in 4 steps: Protected Resource Metadata (RFC 9728) → Authorization Server metadata (RFC 8414) → Dynamic Client Registration (RFC 7591) → …
  • Changing mode: dcr entries in MCPSERVERS
  • SKILL.md covers Candidate selection (run…, Provider docs gate (run first), When you need more than a… and Curl probe checklist, plus 2 more sections
  • Calls rg, curl and jq; reaches api.novu.co

What it does

Nv Onboard Dcr MCP is an agent skill from novuhq/novu. Onboard a new DCR OAuth MCP catalog entry with provider-doc vetting and curl probes. Use when adding or changing mode: dcr entries in MCPSERVERS. Abort if the provider requires whitelist or manual approval.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `blocked-mcp-servers.md`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering MCP servers and OAuth and OpenID Connect. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: The open-source communication infrastructure for agents and products.

When your agent uses it

  • Changing mode: dcr entries in MCPSERVERS
  • Tasks that involve MCP servers
  • Tasks that involve OAuth and OpenID Connect

Example prompts

  • “/nv-onboard-dcr-mcp”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Protected Resource Metadata (RFC 9728)
  2. Authorization Server metadata (RFC 8414)
  3. Dynamic Client Registration (RFC 7591)
  4. Scope sanity

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c4d3eda. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • rg
    • curl
    • jq
    • python3
    • pnpm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • api.novu.co

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Nv Onboard Dcr MCP loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 626 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 626 words (~1,801 tokens).

“Use this checklist when adding a new mode: dcr entry to packages/shared/src/consts/providers/mcp-servers.ts.”
