* fix(mcp): reject credentials that cannot travel as HTTP header values
A request-scoped secret or user_auth credential with a trailing newline
(the usual result of reading a token from a file, or a CRLF env-file),
CR/LF, surrounding whitespace, or characters outside Latin-1 sailed
through the credential interceptors into the HTTP client, where httpx/h11
reject it with an exception that echoes the full value:
LocalProtocolError: Illegal header value b'Bearer sk-...\n'
ToolErrorHandlingMiddleware copies that message into a model-visible
ToolMessage, so the secret landed in the prompt, the checkpoint, and
traces - everywhere headers_from_context promises it never goes.
Add illegal_header_value_reason to mcp/headers.py, mirroring the
transport's own rules (Latin-1 encodable; h11's field_vchar is [^\x00\s]
with SP/HTAB legal only between visible characters), and fail closed in
both interceptors before the value can reach the client. The denial names
only the secret key (plus the reason) and never repeats the value.
Illegal values are denied regardless of on_missing: the key is present,
so a passthrough fallback would silently run the call under the shared
discovery credential - the exact authority confusion the deny default
exists to prevent.
Values the transport accepts are not rejected: embedded SP/HTAB
('Bearer <token>'), Latin-1 high bytes, and DEL all still pass, pinned
by tests against h11's observed behaviour.
* fix(mcp): tighten header value validation to httpx's ASCII boundary
The validator mirrored h11's Latin-1 boundary, but the transport rejects
more than h11 does: build_server_params hands dict[str, str] headers
through the MCP SDK's create_mcp_http_client into httpx.AsyncClient, and
httpx (pinned 0.28.1) encodes str header values as ASCII - so a Latin-1
high byte like 'Bearer caf\xe9' passed validation here only to raise
UnicodeEncodeError inside httpx before h11 ever ran, with the exception
message repeating the offending value.
Validate str values against ASCII instead, flip the tests that pinned
Latin-1 high bytes as transportable, and pin the boundary against the
real client: create_mcp_http_client must reject what the validator
flags and construct cleanly for what it accepts (embedded SP/HTAB and
DEL still pass).
Addresses review feedback on the ASCII vs Latin-1 boundary.
* fix(mcp): validate OAuth and static header values at the same boundary
The validator added for headers_from_context and user_auth left two paths
uncovered. A token endpoint returning an access_token or token_type with a
newline reached httpx/h11, which raise with the full token in the message, and
ToolErrorHandlingMiddleware copies that message into a model-visible
ToolMessage -- the leak this PR set out to close. The operator's static headers
had the same hole.
OAuthTokenManager.get_authorization_header now renders the Authorization value
through one checked helper, so the tool interceptor, the initial discovery
headers and the durable task path are all covered by a single guard. The
rendered value is what gets checked rather than the two fields separately,
because that is what the transport sees: an access_token with leading
whitespace is legal once it follows "Bearer ".
build_server_params applies the same check to statically configured headers.
build_servers_config already isolates a per-server failure, so a bad value
drops that one server and logs the reason instead of the value.
* docs(mcp): correct which transport echoes the full header value
The rationale claimed httpx and h11 both render the full value into their
exception message. Only h11 does, on the line break and surrounding whitespace
cases. httpx's ASCII failure is a UnicodeEncodeError naming the offending
character and its position, not the credential, so at most one character
escapes there; refusing the value up front buys an actionable error rather than
an encode failure raised from inside the client.
Corrected in headers.py and in every copy of the claim: context_headers.py,
user_scoped_auth.py, oauth.py, client.py, mcp/AGENTS.md, docs/MCP_SERVER.md,
the frontend mcp.mdx, and the test comments carrying the same wording. No
behavior change.

Development Notes
- Uses pnpm workspaces (see
packageManagerin package.json) - Turbopack is used by default in development except on Windows, where Webpack avoids known Turbopack runtime instability. Set
DEER_FLOW_DEV_BUNDLER=turboorDEER_FLOW_DEV_BUNDLER=webpackto override the platform default for local diagnosis. - Environment validation can be skipped with
SKIP_ENV_VALIDATION=1(useful for Docker) - Backend API URLs are optional; nginx proxy is used by default in development
