Why it matters
MCP servers connect AI agents to operational systems, making token validation and authorization boundaries important controls against unauthorized tool access.
NeuralTrust's MCP server guide explains how servers expose resources, tools, and prompt templates to AI applications, and highlights security risks including confused-deputy behavior and token passthrough. The provided excerpt cites guidance requiring MCP servers to reject tokens not explicitly issued for them.
