This is the public documentation and configuration repo for the hosted LinkMCP service. The server is a managed remote MCP server and its code is not open source. There is nothing to install or run locally.
Quick start
Sign up at app.linkmcp.io. The 7-day trial is free and needs no card.
Connect your LinkedIn account once in the web app (this needs a paid plan).
Add the server to your AI client (see below) and ask, for example: "Research the VP of Sales at Acme Corp. Check their recent posts. Draft a connection request."
Remote MCP endpoint
https://app.linkmcp.io/api/mcpTransport: Streamable HTTP. Auth: OAuth (browser sign-in, dynamic client registration) or an access key as Authorization: Bearer <key> (create it in the web app under API Keys).
Claude (web, desktop)
In Claude, open Customize > Connectors and click "Add custom connector". Paste https://app.linkmcp.io/api/mcp and click "Add". On Team and Enterprise plans, an Owner adds it for the organization in Organization settings > Connectors; then each member clicks "Connect" under Customize > Connectors.

Pricing
Free trial: 7 days, no card. Profile and company lookups, post data and email or phone finding work in the trial. Connecting your own LinkedIn account (inbox, search as you, invites, posting) needs a paid plan.
Starter: $19 per month. Pro: $49 per month (5x the Starter usage). Max: $199 per month (50x the Starter usage).
Every plan includes every tool. Each plan has a monthly usage allowance and a hard cap, so a looping agent cannot run up a bill. Top-up packs cost $10.
