Building for the agentic era: How to add auth to your MCP servers

​Join us for a technical deep dive into building for the Agentic Era—specifically, how to authenticate your MCP servers (Model Context Protocol) servers to enable powerful agentic workflows.

​This session is designed for technical founders, CTOs, staff engineers, DevTool PMs, and API builders looking to stay ahead of the curve in developer tooling and infrastructure.

What you’ll learn:
• What is an MCP server—and how tools like GitHub Copilot use it to call external systems
• What “MCP support” actually means: OAuth scopes, endpoints, and secure access
• Should your DevTool support MCP? A framework to evaluate the ROI
• Where agentic workflows fit into your customer journey and use cases
• How your agent integration gets discovered (and when it starts driving revenue)
• How to build your first secure, MCP-compatible OAuth layer
• Code snippets, real-world examples, and common pitfalls to avoid
