Environment variables

Defined in the server's official registry manifest. Required secrets are shown as <YOUR_…> placeholders in the configs above.

LIVENXMCP_URL required — LiveNX base URL (e.g., https://nxapi.example.com).
LIVENXMCP_TOKEN required secret — LiveNX API Bearer token.
MCP_AUTH_MODE required — Client authentication mode for the /mcp endpoint. One of: none | static-key | signed-key | resource-server. Required at runtime — the server refuses to start without it (no default).
MCP_API_KEY secret — Static bearer token clients present as `Authorization: Bearer <key>`. Required only when MCP_AUTH_MODE=static-key.
MCP_ED25519_PUBLIC_KEY — Ed25519 public key (base64url) that MCP_AUTH_MODE=signed-key verifies license tokens against. DEFAULTS TO A SHARED DEMO KEY, which authenticates a token holder rather than a customer — every BlueCat-issued token for this
MCP_SIGNED_KEY_AUDIENCE — When set, a license token must carry exactly this audience or it is rejected — a declarative scope check on top of the key, so a token minted for another deployment fails even if it verifies. Unset means the aud claim is
MCP_OAUTH_ISSUER — Token issuer URL, matched against the iss claim of incoming JWTs. Required when MCP_AUTH_MODE=resource-server — the server refuses to start in that mode without it.
MCP_OAUTH_JWKS_URI — JWKS endpoint whose public keys verify the signature on every incoming Bearer JWT. Required when MCP_AUTH_MODE=resource-server — the server refuses to start in that mode without it.
