Okta shipped a hosted managed MCP server in Early Access for identity operations—no local clone/uv wrapper. Point Claude Code, Cursor, or VS Code at it for user lookups, group assignments, system log slices, pending approvals, and bulk access requests. Schema validation blocks hallucinated field names, and payload cleaning flattens responses to TSV so the model is not drowned in metadata. Versus the open-source Okta MCP "clone and uv sync" path, this is the turnkey hosted lane. Details on the Okta product blog.
