Fixed frequent LangSmith MCP OAuth timeouts/re-auth prompts caused by concurrent token refreshes invalidating the session; refreshes are now serialized across dcode processes and provider instances.


dcode stores MCP OAuth tokens per-server under ~/.deepagents/.state/mcp-tokens/. The MCP SDK's OAuthClientProvider serializes refreshes with an in-memory OAuthContext.lock, which only covers a single provider instance. Two dcode processes — or two provider instances in one process (e.g. a throwaway discovery session created during tool loading alongside the cached runtime session) — can each read the same refresh token from disk and POST the refresh_token grant concurrently.

The LangSmith OAuth server (in langchainplus) rotates refresh tokens and, on replay of an already-rotated token, treats it as reuse and revokes every active refresh token for that identity+client. That is why the LangSmith MCP worked for a few minutes (one access-token lifetime) and then hung until a full re-auth.

This adds a cross-process lock (filelock) keyed on a sibling .lock file next to each token file. Before refreshing, _ExpiryAwareOAuthClientProvider acquires the lock, reloads tokens from disk (so a peer's rotation is observed and the refresh is skipped when the token is already valid), and only then performs and persists the SDK refresh grant. The lock wait is bounded (falls back to a best-effort refresh on timeout so a crashed peer can't hang tool calls), and all blocking file IO runs in a worker thread to keep the blockbuster-guarded server loop responsive. The lock file holds no token material.

filelock is added as a direct dependency (>=3.12,<4.0.0); it was already resolved transitively (via huggingface-hub) at 3.29.4. It is MIT-licensed and actively maintained.

Two dcode processes or provider instances sharing an MCP token file could
concurrently replay the same refresh token. The LangSmith OAuth server
rotates refresh tokens and revokes the whole identity+client token family
on reuse, so this surfaced as requests hanging until a full re-auth.

Guard the refresh with a cross-process `filelock` keyed on a sibling lock
file, reload tokens from disk after acquiring it (so a peer's rotation is
observed and the refresh is skipped when the token is already valid), and
only then perform and persist the SDK refresh grant. Blocking file IO runs
in a worker thread to keep the server event loop responsive.

Fixed frequent LangSmith MCP OAuth timeouts/re-auth prompts caused by
concurrent token refreshes invalidating the session; refreshes are now
serialized across dcode processes and provider instances.

---

dcode stores MCP OAuth tokens per-server under
`~/.deepagents/.state/mcp-tokens/`. The MCP SDK's `OAuthClientProvider`
serializes refreshes with an in-memory `OAuthContext.lock`, which only
covers a single provider instance. Two dcode processes — or two provider
instances in one process (e.g. a throwaway discovery session created
during tool loading alongside the cached runtime session) — can each
read the same refresh token from disk and `POST` the `refresh_token`
grant concurrently.

The LangSmith OAuth server (in `langchainplus`) rotates refresh tokens
and, on replay of an already-rotated token, treats it as reuse and
revokes every active refresh token for that identity+client. That is why
the LangSmith MCP worked for a few minutes (one access-token lifetime)
and then hung until a full re-auth.

This adds a cross-process lock (`filelock`) keyed on a sibling `.lock`
file next to each token file. Before refreshing,
`_ExpiryAwareOAuthClientProvider` acquires the lock, reloads tokens from
disk (so a peer's rotation is observed and the refresh is skipped when
the token is already valid), and only then performs and persists the SDK
refresh grant. The lock wait is bounded (falls back to a best-effort
refresh on timeout so a crashed peer can't hang tool calls), and all
blocking file IO runs in a worker thread to keep the
`blockbuster`-guarded server loop responsive. The lock file holds no
token material.

`filelock` is added as a direct dependency (`>=3.12,<4.0.0`); it was
already resolved transitively (via `huggingface-hub`) at `3.29.4`. It is
MIT-licensed and actively maintained.
