Now Live: OAuth Support for Transifex MCP Server!

What's new?
1

We’re excited to introduce OAuth support for the Transifex Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server.

You can now securely authenticate your favorite AI clients—like Cursor, Codex, Claude Code, or Windsurf—using your standard Transifex login in just a few clicks.

How It Works

With OAuth, setting up your MCP server is seamless:

  1. When your AI tool connects to the Transifex MCP Server [https://mcp.transifex.ai/mcp] for the first time, an authentication prompt will trigger.

  2. A browser window opens automatically, guiding you to sign in with your Transifex credentials.

  3. Once approved, your AI client is connected—no token handling required!

How to Set It Up

To use OAuth, simply configure your MCP host configuration files without including a bearer header.

Cursor Configuration

Update or create .cursor/mcp.json in your workspace:

JSON

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Transifex": {
      "url": "https://mcp.transifex.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Codex Configuration

Update or create .codex/config.toml in your project:

Ini, TOML

[mcp_servers.transifex]
transport = "streamable_http"
url = "https://mcp.transifex.ai/mcp"
enabled = true

:light_bulb: Prefer using API tokens? Don’t worry—token-based authentication via Authorization: Bearer <Your-Transifex-API-Token> is still fully supported.
