Descope, the no-code identity provider for customers and AI agents, has launched Agentic Identity Hub 2.0, a comprehensive identity platform designed specifically for AI agents and MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers. The new release provides organizations with standards-based authentication, ephemeral credentials, tool-level access control, and enterprise-grade policy enforcement. This enables secure management of AI agents as first-class identities alongside human users, addressing key production-readiness and security challenges as agentic AI moves from pilot to enterprise scale.
“AI agents are breaking traditional identity systems,” said Slavik Markovich, Co-founder and CEO of Descope. “They're autonomous, scalable, and non-deterministic, meaning they can't be managed like human users or service accounts. The Descope Agentic Identity Hub is a dedicated identity provider for AI agents, giving developers the abstraction layers they need to securely take their AI systems to market while ensuring least privilege access and ongoing protocol compliance. We’re grateful to the several customers already using the Agentic Identity Hub and are excited to be a part of the infrastructure layer needed for secure AI adoption.”
2025 marked the mainstream emergence of AI agents, yet identity remains a major bottleneck. Developers face pressure to implement complex protocols like OAuth 2.1, PKCE, DCR, and CIMD per MCP specifications, while security teams struggle to enforce governance without hindering innovation. Descope’s no-code platform simplifies these challenges with visual workflows for authentication and authorization journeys tailored to AI agents and MCP servers.
The updated platform delivers targeted features for builders and security teams alike:
Provides a centralized dashboard for all agent identities—dynamically created or manually registered—with attributes including associated users, tenants, tool-level scopes, and OAuth client IDs.
Enables MCP server developers to add protocol-compliant auth with user consent flows, hardened DCR/CIMD, per-agent/per-tool scopes, and tenant isolation for B2B scenarios.
Securely manages, stores, and refreshes OAuth tokens and API keys for agent access to third-party systems, with 50+ prebuilt connection templates and DCR presets for dynamic integration.
Allows organizations to define granular authorization rules based on user roles, JWT claims, tenants, agent types, and other attributes to enforce least privilege access.
Offers full visibility into agent actions, access patterns, and misconfigurations, with the ability to revoke access, stream events to SIEM platforms, and support compliance.
“The Descope Agentic Identity Hub frees up our developers from tooling and integration work so they can spend more time shipping core features instead,” said Soham Mazumdar, Co-founder and CEO of WisdomAI. “Our customer-facing MCP server uses Descope as the auth layer—this MCP server is used by Fortune 500 customers and helps us show the value of our AI-powered analytics platform while having the confidence that identity controls are baked-in.”
“Descope is a key under-the-hood component of the Cequence AI Gateway,” said Shreyans Mehta, co-founder and CTO of Cequence Security. “Descope’s flexible, developer-friendly handling of MCP auth has played an important role in helping Cequence AI Gateway customers securely connect their applications, APIs, and data to AI agents.”
With over 1,000 organizations—including GoFundMe, Databricks, GoodRx, Navan, and You.com—using Descope for customer and machine identity management, the Agentic Identity Hub 2.0 positions the platform as essential infrastructure for secure, scalable AI adoption. By combining developer-friendly abstractions with robust security controls, Descope enables organizations to confidently operationalize AI agents and MCP servers while mitigating identity-related risks.
