Adds first-class `client_cert` / `client_key` config keys so MCP servers
behind mTLS work without an external TLS-terminating proxy. Resolves
inbound community question (Jeremy W.).
Schema (per `mcp_servers.<name>`, HTTP/SSE only):
- `client_cert: "/path/to/combined.pem"` — single PEM with cert + key
- `client_cert: "/path/to/cert"` + `client_key: "/path/to/key"` — separate
- `client_cert: [cert, key]` or `[cert, key, password]` — list form,
with optional passphrase for encrypted keys
Paths support `~` expansion. Missing files raise a server-scoped
`FileNotFoundError` at connect time rather than failing later with an
opaque TLS handshake error.
Wiring:
- New SDK HTTP path (mcp >= 1.24): `cert=` on the user-owned
`httpx.AsyncClient` alongside the existing `verify=` handling.
- SSE path: routed through an `httpx_client_factory` that wraps the
SDK's defaults (follow_redirects=True) and layers `verify` + `cert`
on top. The factory is only injected when needed, so the SDK's
built-in `create_mcp_http_client` keeps being used in the default
case.
- Deprecated mcp<1.24 path left untouched — that SDK's
`streamablehttp_client` signature doesn't expose `cert`, and adding
it would be dead code.
Also documents the previously-undocumented `ssl_verify` key (bool or
CA bundle path) in the MCP config reference.
Tests:
- `tests/tools/test_mcp_client_cert.py` (new, 19 tests):
- `_resolve_client_cert` helper: all three input forms, `~` expansion,
missing-file and validation errors.
- HTTP transport: `cert=` forwarded into `httpx.AsyncClient` for
string and tuple forms; absent when unset; missing-file error
propagates.
- SSE transport: factory only injected when cert or non-default
verify is set; factory applies cert, custom CA bundle, and
preserves `follow_redirects=True` + forwarded headers/auth.
- Existing tests: 200/200 in `test_mcp_tool.py` + `test_mcp_sse_transport.py`
still pass.
