What changed

  • Adds a dedicated Client ID Metadata Documents (CIMD) guide.
  • Adds the guide to documentation navigation.
  • Documents metadata requirements, PKCE, consent, scopes, and client admission policies.
  • Updates OAuth implementation and discovery documentation.
  • Updates MCP build and connection guidance to distinguish CIMD from Dynamic Client Registration.

Why

The existing MCP guidance required Dynamic Client Registration for every client. Clerk now supports CIMD as the preferred URL-based alternative, with explicit and default-deny client controls.

User impact

Readers can configure compatible clients without Dynamic Client Registration and understand explicit, implicit, and blocked client statuses.

Validation

  • pnpm run build:tsx
  • pnpm run lint
  • Prettier checks for changed files
  • git diff --check
