# Convex: MCP server, CLI and agent surfaces

Yes: Convex runs a public MCP server at mcp.convex.dev, found by guessing the subdomain, and it listed 4 tools to a client with no credentials on 4 November 2026. Examples: start\_convex\_app, add\_convex\_to\_existing\_project, get\_convex\_scaling\_guidance. It speaks streamable-http, protocol 2025-06-18. A CLI is on record: convex on npm.

## Authentication

| Auth type | No authentication |

### The sign-in route, step by step

1.  Send the handshake to `https://mcp.convex.dev/mcp` over streamable-http. Servers on the 2026-07-28 revision answer `server/discover`; older servers answer `initialize`.
2.  Send `tools/list`, then `resources/list` and `prompts/list` if the capabilities name them.
3.  Send no token. The connector sent none and the server answered, so any MCP client can read this list.
4.  Calling a tool is a separate step this directory never takes.

See [OAuth for MCP: client ID metadata documents and dynamic registration](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/guides/oauth-for-mcp-cimd-dcr/) for how each route works.
