How It Works

You install mcp-linkedin (npm or .mcpb)
         │
         └─► First use triggers OAuth
                   │
                   └─► Tokens stored locally on your machine
                             │
                             └─► Claude posts to LinkedIn for you

Your credentials stay on your machine. The OAuth relay only handles the initial handshake.

Privacy

• Your LinkedIn access token is stored locally on your machine
• We never store or access your LinkedIn credentials
• All API calls go directly from your machine to LinkedIn

Requirements

• Claude Desktop
• LinkedIn account
