About this blog

Who writes here, what we cover, and how to follow along.

This is the engineering and product blog of LumoAuth, a hosted authentication and authorization service with two jobs: passwordless sign-in for people, and identity plus guardrails for AI agents.

We write about the things we build and the standards they sit on: passkeys and magic links, enterprise SSO and directory sync, OAuth 2.1, token exchange, rich authorization requests, HTTP message signatures, DPoP, MCP server authorization and human-in-the-loop approvals for agents.

What to expect

  • Explainers and standards deep dives, with links to the RFCs.
  • How-tos that run against the real SDKs and API.
  • Comparisons with other identity platforms, dated and sourced.
  • Checklists and scenarios for teams putting agents into production.
