ThinkReview MCP - Version 1.3 Release Notes
Release Date: 11 August 2026
Product: MCP

🎯 What's New
Browser OAuth for MCP clients 🔐
ThinkReview MCP now supports OAuth 2.1 at mcp.thinkreview.dev. Add a URL-only config in Cursor, Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or GitHub Copilot, then click Authenticate — a browser window opens on the ThinkReview portal so you can sign in and allow access.
No Bearer token is required in your MCP config files for this flow. Portal consent lives at portal.thinkreview.dev/mcp/oauth.
Portal setup: choose OAuth or Bearer 🎛️
The MCP integration page now presents two clear authentication methods:
- OAuth (recommended) — URL-only snippets and Authenticate steps for each client
- Bearer token — the existing long-lived portal token (still used by the browser extension and as a fallback)
OAuth MCP sessions are separate from the extension Bearer token. Regenerating the Bearer token does not revoke OAuth sessions.
Claude Desktop support documented 🖥️
Claude Desktop does not accept Claude Code’s "type": "http" config in claude_desktop_config.json. v1.3 docs cover:
- Connectors (recommended) — add https://mcp.thinkreview.dev/v1 as a custom connector
- mcp-remote bridge — local stdio proxy for the Desktop config file
Streamlined Firestore OAuth store 🗄️
The authorization server now keeps clients, pending consent, auth codes, and tokens in a single McpOAuth collection (kind-prefixed documents), with the same PKCE and hashing security model as before.
