Hi HN,I'm building AuthForge - authentication infrastructure for AI agents. Early preview at https://auth-forge-web-two.vercel.app: When AI agents need to access your tools (Slack, GitHub, Jira), how do you handle auth? Current options are expensive proprietary platforms or DIY OAuth with security risks.: - Zitadel for identity/SSO - Ory Hydra for OAuth 2.1 (MCP-specific flows) - Cerbos for policy engine (time/context-based rules) - HashiCorp Vault for token management - All Apache 2.0 licensed : Is this overengineered? Should I start with just basic OAuth + agent registry and add complexity later? Or is the enterprise stack necessary from day 1?Background: 15+ years building infrastructure.
The company sits in the show hn launch segment, where it competes on its core product or service.
The company is listed at the Show HN launch stage of development.
