OAUTH 2.0

AlphaXiv MCP gives agents cited access to arXiv research: search papers, pull abstracts, authors, and citations in one call.

Does the agent access AlphaXiv as the user or as a shared key?
As the user. Each workspace member authorizes once and Scalekit resolves their credential at request time. Audit logs attribute every action to that user, not a shared service account.
Where is the AlphaXiv OAuth token stored?
In Scalekit's managed AES-256 token vault, namespaced per tenant. Refresh is automatic. Revocation is a single dashboard action. Tokens never appear in prompts, logs, or LLM context.
Can I limit what the agent is allowed to do in AlphaXiv?
Yes. Pass a tool name filter to listScopedTools so the AI agent only sees the subset you authorize. Pre-API-call scope checks block out-of-policy actions before the request reaches AlphaXiv.
What happens when a user revokes AlphaXiv access?
The connection is invalidated on the next tool call. Subsequent requests for that user fail closed with a clear error. Other users in the tenant remain unaffected. The event is logged for audit.
Are paper queries and reading history per user?
Yes. Paper discovery, PDF queries, and repository reads run with the authorizing user's AlphaXiv credential, so research trails stay personal to each scientist.
