Ole-Morten Duesund 2c7b50012c docs: initial planning artifacts for fjmcp-broker 
Establish project scope, architecture, and phased implementation plan
for an OAuth 2.1 broker that fronts forgejo-mcp, delegating user
authentication to Forgejo and spawning a per-session stdio
forgejo-mcp subprocess scoped to each authenticated user's token.

No code yet — planning only.

forgejo-mcp-broker

OAuth 2.1 authorization server and MCP session broker for forgejo-mcp.

Lets MCP clients such as Claude.ai connect to a Forgejo instance through a single public HTTPS endpoint, with per-user authentication delegated to Forgejo's own OAuth2 provider. The broker handles the OAuth dance, then spawns a dedicated forgejo-mcp --transport stdio subprocess for each authenticated session, scoped to the authenticated user's Forgejo access token.

Status: Planning. No code yet. See docs/design.md for the architecture and docs/plan.md for the phased implementation plan.

How it fits

Claude.ai ──HTTPS──▶ Caddy ──▶ fjmcp-broker ──stdio──▶ forgejo-mcp  ──▶ Forgejo API
                                  (this)              (one per user     (per-user
                                                       session)          token)
  • fjmcp-broker (this project): one long-running process. Handles OAuth discovery, dynamic client registration, the authorization-code flow against Forgejo, session lifecycle, and stdio-to-streamable-HTTP bridging.
  • forgejo-mcp (existing project): used as-is. Spawned per-session with the authenticated user's FORGEJO_ACCESS_TOKEN in the environment.
  • Caddy: terminates TLS for the public hostname and reverse-proxies to the broker.

Why a broker instead of adding OAuth to forgejo-mcp?

Process-level isolation. Each user's Forgejo token lives in exactly one subprocess — the broker never needs to demultiplex tokens inside a single shared client. This keeps forgejo-mcp's sync.Once singleton-client pattern valid and avoids a refactor of every tool handler. Full trade-off in docs/design.md.
