Grantex

OAuth 2.0 for AI agents — scoped, revocable, auditable

Grantex launched on March 3, 2026 with 1 votes, #8,013 of 23,380 launches that month.

What it does

Open authorization protocol for AI agents. Instead of handing agents all-or-nothing API keys, Grantex lets humans approve scoped, time-limited grants. Agents receive signed JWTs that any service can verify offline via JWKS — no Grantex account needed. Every action is logged in an append-only audit trail. Revocation takes effect in under 1 second.Ships with TypeScript, Python, and Go SDKs plus 8 framework integrations including LangChain, CrewAI, OpenAI Agents SDK, and MCP.

Open-source delegated authorization for AI agents: scoped permissions, human consent, agent identity, JWT verification, revocation, delegation, and audit.

Grantex gives AI agents verifiable identity and scoped, time-limited, revocable authority, with service-side verification and audit records. Its tested OAuth Agent Grants profile adds PAR, PKCE, DPoP, rotating refresh tokens, token exchange, and revocation. Owned by Orchestrum Technologies LLP. Inventor and owner: Sanjeev Kumar. Contact [email protected] or [email protected] . Release snapshot verified on 7 September 2026. TypeScript 0.6.0, Python 0.5.0, Go v0.3.0, and x402 0.4.0 are registry-verified. External custody remains operator-supplied. Implemented product areas; follow the linked docs for package-level status and limitations. Offline consent bundles and on-device…from grantex.dev

    Hi HN — I’m a heavy OpenClaw user and, like many others, I’ve been thinking about how to give these new “unleashed” agents secure access to my accounts. Agents need API access to be useful. But API keys are long-lived secrets. And agents are not secure environments. So I built something for myself that quickly turned into a product: keychains.dev. The idea is simple: agents never see raw credentials. With Keychains.dev: • Agents make API calls via a drop-in replacement for curl or JavaScript’s fetch() • They use template variable names instead of embedding credentials • The request is…

    OAuth credential delegation for AI agents

    I’ve been experimenting with AI agents lately, and one problem kept coming up: they either get a raw API key with full access or nothing at all. That’s risky, especially if you’re testing agents that can make arbitrary calls. So I hacked together a tiny package called Kage Keys - https://github.com/kagehq/keys It lets you wrap agent actions with scoped, short-lived tokens instead of handing over your real API keys. Example: ```js import { withAgentKey, getLogs } from "@kagehq/keys"; async function main() { await withAgentKey("github:repos.read", async () => {…

  • A self-hosted OAuth 2.0 server for authenticating AI agents and machineFeb 2026 · github.com · ▲6

    MachineAuth is a self-hosted OAuth 2.0 server for authenticating AI agents and machines. What is an AI agent in this context? A software bot (like OpenCLAW, Claude Code, etc.) that makes API calls to access protected resources. Instead of sharing long-lived API keys, your agents can authenticate using OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials and receive short-lived JWT tokens. Why? No more sharing API keys Short-lived tokens (configurable) Easy credential rotation Industry-standard security

    over this weekend myself and two of my friends took part in a hackathon and built this side-project. we have been diving into computer-use recently and developed an sdk to make it easy to implement for devs like us. one feature we were missing though, was the agent being able to log into services. anthropic understandably blocks this capability with their guardrails, and you wouldn't want your credentials to end up in any model context anyways. so we added a keychain service to the vm that the agent is using. it was built using the pass cli (https://www.passwordstore.org/).…
