Token Refresh Skill
Purpose
Manages OAuth token lifecycle with automatic refresh, expiry detection, and secure token rotation.
When to Use
- Tokens approaching expiry
- Token refresh required
- Check token validity
- Handle token expiration
Available MCP Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|
mcp__kernel-v2-oauth__refresh | Refresh access token |
mcp__kernel-v2-oauth__status | Check token status |
mcp__kernel-v2-credentials__retrieve | Get stored refresh token |
mcp__kernel-v2-credentials__store | Store new tokens |
Refresh Strategy
- Buffer Time: 15 minutes before actual expiry
- Auto-refresh: Tokens refreshed automatically
- Rotation: Refresh tokens rotated on each use
Workflow
Check and Refresh Token
- Call
mcp__kernel-v2-oauth__status to check expiry
- If within 15-minute buffer, call
mcp__kernel-v2-credentials__retrieve for refresh token
- Call
mcp__kernel-v2-oauth__refresh with refresh token
- Store new tokens with
mcp__kernel-v2-credentials__store
