| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| blockInternal | Reject loopback/private/link-local hosts. The only internal targets permitted are explicit loopback hosts reached over plaintext http (the local-development allowance). Used for every attacker-influenceable fetch (OAuth/discovery, JWKS, introspection, proxy upstream). |
| allowUserConfigured | Resolve and pin the address (TOCTOU-stable) but do NOT reject internal or loopback targets. Used for the user-chosen MCP client transport endpoint. |
How a fetch treats internal targets.
