+# Open MCP Auth Proxy
 
-## Overview
+The Open MCP Auth Proxy is a lightweight proxy designed to sit in front of MCP servers and enforce authorization in compliance with the [Model Context Protocol authorization](https://spec.modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-03-26/basic/authorization/) requirements. It intercepts incoming requests, validates tokens, and offloads authentication and authorization to an OAuth-compliant Identity Provider.
 
-OpenMCPAuthProxy is a security middleware that implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) Authorization Specification (2025-03-26). It functions as a proxy between clients and MCP servers, providing robust authentication and authorization capabilities. The proxy intercepts incoming requests, validates authentication tokens, and forwards only authorized requests to the underlying MCP server, enhancing the security posture of your MCP deployment.

-## Setup and Installation
+## **Setup and Installation**
 
-### Prerequisites
+### **Prerequisites**
-- Go 1.20 or higher
+
-- A running MCP server (SSE transport supported)
+* Go 1.20 or higher  
+* A running MCP server (SSE transport supported)  
+* An MCP client that supports MCP authorization 
+
+### **Installation**
 
-### Installation
 ```bash
 git clone https://github.com/wso2/open-mcp-auth-proxy  
 cd open-mcp-auth-proxy  
 go build -o openmcpauthproxy ./cmd/proxy
 ```
 
-## Configuration
+## Using Open MCP Auth Proxy
 
-Create a configuration file `config.yaml` with the following parameters:
+### Quick Start 
+
+Allows you to just enable authentication and authorization for your MCP server with the preconfigured auth provider powered by Asgardeo.
+
+If you don’t have an MCP server, follow the instructions given here to start your own MCP server for testing purposes.
+1. Download [sample MCP server](resources/echo_server.py)
+2. Run the server with
+```bash
+python3 echo_server.py
+```
+
+#### Configure the Auth Proxy
+
+Create a configuration file config.yaml with the following parameters:
 
 ```yaml
 mcp_server_base_url: "http://localhost:8000"  # URL of your MCP server  
 listen_address: ":8080"                       # Address where the proxy will listen
 ```
 
-## Usage Example
+#### Start the Auth Proxy
-
-### 1. Start the MCP Server
-
-Create a file named `echo_server.py`:
-
-```python
-from mcp.server.fastmcp import FastMCP
-
-mcp = FastMCP("Echo")
-
-
-@mcp.resource("echo://{message}")
-def echo_resource(message: str) -> str:
-    """Echo a message as a resource"""
-    return f"Resource echo: {message}"
-
-
-@mcp.tool()
-def echo_tool(message: str) -> str:
-    """Echo a message as a tool"""
-    return f"Tool echo: {message}"
-
-
-@mcp.prompt()
-def echo_prompt(message: str) -> str:
-    """Create an echo prompt"""
-    return f"Please process this message: {message}"
-
-if __name__ == "__main__":
-    mcp.run(transport="sse")
-```
-
-Run the server:
-```bash
-python3 echo_server.py
-```
-
-### 2. Start the Auth Proxy
 
 ```bash
 ./openmcpauthproxy --demo
 ```
 
-The `--demo` flag enables a demonstration mode with pre-configured authentication with [Asgardeo](https://asgardeo.io/).

+Enable authorization for the MCP server through your own Asgardeo organization
+
+1. [Register]([url](https://asgardeo.io/signup)) and create an organization in Asgardeo
+2. Now, you need to authorize the OpenMCPAuthProxy to allow dynamically registering MCP Clients as applications in your organization. To do that,
+   1. Create an [M2M application](https://wso2.com/asgardeo/docs/guides/applications/register-machine-to-machine-app/)  
+         1. [Authorize this application](https://wso2.com/asgardeo/docs/guides/applications/register-machine-to-machine-app/#authorize-the-api-resources-for-the-app) to invoke “Application Management API” with the `internal_application_mgt_create` scope.

+         2. Note the **Client ID** and **Client secret** of this application. This is required by the auth proxy 
+
+#### Configure the Auth Proxy
+
+Create a configuration file config.yaml with the following parameters:
+
+```yaml
+mcp_server_base_url: "http://localhost:8000"  # URL of your MCP server  
+listen_address: ":8080"                       # Address where the proxy will listen
+
+asgardeo:                                     
+  org_name: "<org_name>"                      # Your Asgardeo org name
+  client_id: "<client_id>"                    # Client ID of the M2M app
+  client_secret: "<client_secret>"            # Client secret of the M2M app
+```
+
+#### Start the Auth Proxy
+
+```bash
+./openmcpauthproxy --asgardeo
+```
+
+### Use with Auth0
+
+Enable authorization for the MCP server through your Auth0 organization
+
+**TODO**: Add instructions
+
+[Enable dynamic application registration](https://auth0.com/docs/get-started/applications/dynamic-client-registration#enable-dynamic-client-registration) in your Auth0 organization
+
+#### Configure the Auth Proxy
+
+Create a configuration file config.yaml with the following parameters:
+
+```yaml
+mcp_server_base_url: "http://localhost:8000"     # URL of your MCP server  
+listen_address: ":8080"                          # Address where the proxy will listen
+```
+
+**TODO**: Update the configs for Auth0.
+
+#### Start the Auth Proxy
+
+```bash
+./openmcpauthproxy --auth0
+```
+
+### Use with a standard OAuth Server
+
+Enable authorization for the MCP server with a compliant OAuth server
+
+#### Configuration
+
+Create a configuration file config.yaml with the following parameters:
+
+```yaml
+mcp_server_base_url: "http://localhost:8000"  # URL of your MCP server  
+listen_address: ":8080"                       # Address where the proxy will listen
+```
+**TODO**: Update the configs for a standard OAuth Server.
+
+#### Start the Auth Proxy
