Description
Closes #2168.
When connecting to hosted Executor v2 from headless, remote, or SSH environments (such as Codex CLI/App Server, CI, or remote machines), browser OAuth flows present two pain points:
"Authentication required".http://localhost:<port>fail or require manual tunnel forwarding in remote SSH sessions.Executor Cloud already supports long-lived API key authentication over
Authorization: Bearer <api-key>. This PR updates the MCP Connect card UI and the hosted documentation to guide users on using API keys for remote/SSH and headless clients.Changes
packages/react/src/components/mcp-install-card.tsx: Added clear guidance under HTTP connection settings pointing remote/SSH users to create and use an API key via--header 'Authorization: Bearer <api-key>'.apps/docs/hosted/cloud.mdx: Documented both Browser OAuth and API Key authentication methods with sample configs for Codex (~/.codex/config.toml) and generic MCP clients.apps/docs/mcp-proxy.mdx: Added header authentication instructions for remote/headless setups..changeset/headless-ssh-mcp-auth-api-keys.md: Changeset for@executor-js/react.Verification
