Yeah, I read this and thought "makes total sense that Okta would be one of the prime movers behind this". The more I think about it, the more this is just like an app dashboard that an employee can use to access many different apps and that the enterprise can use to control and monitor access. So it makes total sense that they solved this (very real) problem.

I like one of the author's characterizations[0].

> Now employees no longer have to connect MCP servers manually and wait for a series of OAuth and login prompts. Once you log in to Claude from Okta, all the preconfigured MCP servers are already connected! It's not every day you get to improve both usability and security!
