Problem Statement

Snowflake's MCP server implementation requires 127.0.0.1 and does not accept localhost.
Snowflake Documentation

It would be great if we could override the callback URL to support this feature from Snowflake.

Proposed Solution

Rather than just supplying the callback port. Add a new parameter (--callbackUrl) that will override the default callback of 'LocalHost'. So, the config in .claude.json would look something like this:

"snowflake-mcp": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://<ACCOUNT>.snowflakecomputing.com/api/v2/databases/<YOURDBNAME>/schemas/<YOURSCHEMANAME>/mcp-servers/<YOURMCPSERVERNAME>",
"oauth": {
"clientId": "LOCAL_APPLICATION",
"callbackPort": 8080,
"callbackUrl": "http://127.0.0.1"
}
}

Alternative Solutions

Based on the limitation from Snowflake and Claude, there are no workarounds that I am aware of.

Use Case Example

  1. I want to use Snowflake's self hosted/managed MCP server
