    OAuth authorization with Dynamic Client Registration. During authorization
    the client approves scopes (mcp:users.read, mcp:workapps.read,
    mcp:requests.read, mcp:requests.write) that determine which tools are
    available. Supported across Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, Codex, VS Code, and
    many other MCP clients.

notes: >-
  Cakewalk publishes two distinct MCP surfaces. (1) This developer MCP server
  (mcp.getcakewalk.io/mcp) exposes read tools over the Cakewalk Open API for AI
  assistants. (2) Separately, the Cakewalk product itself is an MCP Gateway that
  governs and proxies AI agents' tool calls to third-party apps (Slack, Google,
  Salesforce, GitLab, etc.) with runtime policy evaluation and audit logging.
