## Description

OAuth-protected gateway implementation that provides secure tool execution with JWT-based authentication and authorization. Built as a starter template by David Crowe (creator of GatewayStack), it integrates with OAuth providers like Auth0, Clerk, Google, and Okta to verify bearer tokens and enforce scope-based permissions before proxying tool calls to backend services. Features automatic OIDC discovery, WWW-Authenticate header generation for ChatGPT OAuth flows, and flexible deployment options supporting both local development and Cloud Run production environments with built-in request logging and error handling.
