Summary

When an MCP client reauthorizes OAuth consent, its oauth_configs row has been "authorized" since the original bootstrap and never regresses. Polling the bare config status endpoint during a reauthorize flow therefore reads "authorized" on the very first tick, before the admin has signed in upstream, causing the dashboard to close the consent popup prematurely. This PR fixes that by threading a flow_id through the reauthorize response and status polling path so the server resolves status from the live flow row rather than the stale config row.

Changes

  • POST /api/mcp/client/{id}/reauthorize now includes flow_id and a corrected status_url (with ?flow_id= appended) in its response, so callers know which flow row to poll against.
  • GET /api/oauth/config/{id}/status accepts an optional flow_id query parameter. When present, it resolves the returned status from the flow row via a new resolveOAuthFlowPollStatus function rather than from the config row. The response echoes flow_id and includes a flow_status field with the raw flow row state. A flow_id that belongs to a different config returns 404.
  • resolveOAuthFlowPollStatus encodes the resolution logic: pending/claiming flow rows return "pending", an expired-deadline pending row returns "expired", a failed row returns "failed", and a gone row falls back to the config status (with a "pending" config treated as "expired" since the bootstrap flow was swept without completing).
  • A new "expired" status value is added to the OAuthConfigStatus schema and the OAuthStatusResponse type.
  • The UI OAuth2Authorizer component now accepts flowId and expiresAt props, passes flow_id on every status poll, and stops polling with a timeout error once the flow deadline passes rather than waiting on a row the server may have already swept.
  • The getOAuthConfigStatus RTK Query endpoint is updated to accept either a plain config ID string or an object with oauthConfigId and optional flowId.
  • The onConflict handler in mcpClientsTable is corrected: a 409 during reauthorize means the consent did not actually complete, so it now shows an error toast instead of a false success.
  • A table-driven unit test (mcp_oauth_flow_poll_status_test.go) covers all branches of resolveOAuthFlowPollStatus.
  • OpenAPI docs are updated to document the new flow_id query parameter, the flow_id/flow_status response fields, the expired enum value, and the updated 404 condition.

  • Transports (HTTP)
  • Providers/Integrations
  • Plugins
  • UI (React)
  • Docs

How to test

  1. Configure an MCP client with admin-mode OAuth and complete the initial authorization so the config status is "authorized".
  2. Trigger a reauthorize flow. Confirm the response includes flow_id and that status_url contains ?flow_id=.
  3. Poll GET /api/oauth/config/{id}/status?flow_id={flow_id} before completing the upstream consent. Confirm the response returns status: "pending" rather than "authorized".
  4. Complete the upstream consent. Confirm the next poll returns status: "authorized".
  5. Trigger a reauthorize flow and let it expire without completing. Confirm the poll returns status: "expired".
  6. Confirm that polling without flow_id still returns the config's own status, unaffected.
# Core/Transports
go test ./transports/bifrost-http/handlers/...

# UI
cd ui
pnpm i || npm i
pnpm build || npm run build

Breaking changes

  • No

The flow_id query parameter is optional and the endpoint is fully backward-compatible. The new "expired" status value is additive.

Security considerations

A flow_id supplied by the caller is validated against the config ID in the URL before any data is returned. A flow belonging to a different config returns 404, preventing a poll on config A from reading the state of config B's flow.

Checklist

  • I read docs/contributing/README.md and followed the guidelines
  • I added/updated tests where appropriate
  • I updated documentation where needed
  • I verified builds succeed (Go and UI)
  • I verified the CI pipeline passes locally if applicable

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • OAuth reauthorization now tracks individual flows for accurate status updates.
    • Status responses include flow identifiers and states, including expiration.
    • OAuth initiation responses provide flow-specific status URLs.
    • Users can retry failed or incomplete authorization flows with progress feedback.
    • Added an option to refresh available tools for MCP clients.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented stale configuration status from overriding active reauthorization flow state.
    • Validated that requested flows belong to the selected OAuth configuration.
    • Polling now enforces expiration deadlines and reports incomplete flows clearly.

Walkthrough

OAuth reauthorization now returns a flow ID, polls flow-specific status, handles expiration and incomplete consent, and exposes the related API and OpenAPI fields.

Changes

OAuth flow polling

Layer / File(s) Summary
OAuth flow and status contracts
docs/openapi/paths/management/oauth.yaml, docs/openapi/schemas/management/oauth.yaml
The API documents flow_id, flow-specific statuses, expiration, and invalid flow ownership responses.
Backend flow status resolution
transports/bifrost-http/handlers/mcpoauth2.go, transports/bifrost-http/handlers/mcp.go, transports/bifrost-http/handlers/mcp_oauth_flow_poll_status_test.go
The backend resolves status from the requested flow, validates configuration ownership, returns flow metadata, and tests pending, expired, failed, completed, and missing-flow cases.
Frontend status API and response types
ui/lib/store/apis/mcpApi.ts, ui/lib/types/mcp.ts
The frontend sends optional flow_id values, exposes flow identifiers and statuses, and exports the MCP client tools refresh mutation.
Reauthorization flow polling
ui/app/workspace/mcp-registry/views/mcpClientsTable.tsx, ui/app/workspace/mcp-registry/views/oauth2Authorizer.tsx
The UI stores flow identifiers and deadlines, polls flow-specific status, fails expired flows, and retries incomplete authorization flows.
