description: Unblocked ships an official MCP server. On macOS it is built and run by the Unblocked CLI
  (`unblocked mcp`, JSON-RPC over stdio), installed one-shot via `curl -fsSL https://getunblocked.com/install-mcp.sh
  | bash`, which auto-configures Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, and other detected
  agents and installs the companion Agent Skills. A hosted remote MCP server is also offered for Windows/Linux
  and remote setups (per-agent install guides); the OAuth authorization server backing remote MCP auth
  is published at https://getunblocked.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server (authorization-code
  + refresh, PKCE S256, dynamic client registration).
