linkedin-growth-mcp

Custom MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for LinkedIn — post to your profile via the official (free) LinkedIn API.

Published on npm: @mj4384963/linkedin-growth-mcp

3 Tools

| Tool | What it does | |------|-------------| | post_to_linkedin | Publish a text post to your profile | | post_with_link | Publish a post with a link preview card (GitHub repo, demo, article) | | get_my_profile | Get your profile basics (name, email, person URN) |

Note: LinkedIn's public API only allows posting to your own profile (free). Follows, comments, feed reading are NOT available in the public API — those are partner-only.

Setup (one time)

1. Create a LinkedIn Developer App

• Go to linkedin.com/developers/apps → Create app
• Add products: "Share on LinkedIn" + "Sign In with LinkedIn using OpenID Connect"
• In Auth tab, add redirect URL: http://localhost:8914/callback
• Copy Client ID + Client Secret

2. Get your access token (60-day validity)

npx -y @mj4384963/linkedin-growth-mcp   # no — for auth use:
git clone https://github.com/my5757980/linkedin-growth-mcp
cd linkedin-growth-mcp && npm install
# put LINKEDIN_CLIENT_ID + LINKEDIN_CLIENT_SECRET in .env
npm run auth   # opens OAuth flow, prints LINKEDIN_ACCESS_TOKEN

claude mcp add linkedin-growth -s user \
  -e LINKEDIN_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_token \
  -- npx -y @mj4384963/linkedin-growth-mcp@latest
