What

Fix MCP OAuth scope parsing to handle comma-separated scopes (e.g. Slack) in addition to standard space-separated scopes. Also fix access_token extraction to fall back to authed_user.access_token when not present at the top level.

Closes: #265

How

  • mcp_oauth_scopes.py: parse_token_scopes now checks authed_user.scope when top-level scope is absent, splits on comma or space for both string and list inputs.
  • mcp_oauth_handlers.py: handle_mcp_oauth_callback falls back to authed_user.access_token, handles Slack-style ok: false error responses, and logs the token exchange response (redacted) for troubleshooting.
  • Changes are generic — no provider-specific logic. Any OAuth MCP returning comma-separated scopes or nesting tokens under authed_user will work.

Testing

  • Unit tests added/updated
  • Ran locally (uv run pytest tests/unit -x)
  • Manual verification: trigger OAuth flow against Slack MCP, verify scopes are granted without "missing requested scopes" error

Walkthrough

OAuth callback handling now returns provider error messages when responses contain ok: false. Access-token extraction falls back to authed_user.access_token and logs response keys when no token is found. Scope parsing supports standard and Slack-style fields with comma- or space-separated values. Unit tests cover these response and scope formats.

response-handling flow to recursively redact access_token and refresh_token
values in nested objects such as authed_user before logging. Reuse or add a
focused sanitization helper, and ensure the existing top-level filtering
behavior remains covered without exposing token values.

- Around line 33-43: Update the scope parsing logic for both string inputs and
list elements in the scope normalization function to split each value on commas
and whitespace simultaneously, so mixed forms such as comma-plus-space separated
scopes produce individual entries; preserve trimming and empty-item filtering.

… scopes

Slack's OAuth token endpoint nests access_token/scope under authed_user
and returns comma-separated scopes instead of the standard space-separated
list. Fall back to authed_user for both fields, and split on comma when
present (including within list elements), so MCP OAuth token exchange and
scope enforcement work correctly for Slack-backed MCP servers.

…eparators

Recursively redact access_token/refresh_token from logged OAuth response
bodies (e.g. Slack's nested authed_user block), and parse scopes using a
regex split so comma- and space-separated values can appear together in
the same string.

Reverts the _redact_tokens() logging helper and the regex-based
comma/space scope splitting introduced in 290e978, restoring the
simpler single-separator scope parsing and raise_for_status() error
handling in the OAuth token exchange callback.

…alse errors

Covers the OAuth callback's error path when the token endpoint returns
ok: false, the access_token fallback to authed_user, and scope parsing
precedence between top-level scope and authed_user.scope.

Related issue: #265

Adds a regression test for the case where access_token is absent from
both the top-level and authed_user response, and a test ensuring empty
strings in a scope list are skipped rather than producing blank entries.
