challenge.rs

1//! OAuth challenge construction for the proxy auth boundary.
2//!
3//! [`OAuthChallengeBuilder`] builds the `WWW-Authenticate: Bearer` 401/403
4//! responses (per RFC 6750 and RFC 9728) that drive MCP and agent clients into
5//! their OAuth discovery handshake, deriving the advertised `resource_metadata`
6//! URL from the incoming request host. [`AuthValidator`] performs the bearer
7//! check and [`challenge_or_error`] maps a failed check onto a [`ProxyError`].
