LinkedIn MCP server — publish posts, articles, and media via the LinkedIn API
Most developer tooling work still happens through a UI a human drives. Linkedin MCP server moves it into the conversation instead. LinkedIn MCP server — publish posts, articles, and media via the LinkedIn API.
MCP server for publishing posts, articles, and media to LinkedIn. Part of the Human Agency Protocol.
The server publishes 7 tools. What each one is for:
create_post — Publish a text postcreate_article_post — Publish a post with a link/articlecreate_image_post — Publish a post with an imageget_post — Get a post by URNlist_posts — List your recent postsdelete_post — Delete a postget_profile — Get your LinkedIn profileThe server ships on npm as @humanagencyp/linkedin-mcp, so your MCP client can launch it on demand — there is no separate build step. Add the server block to your client's configuration, restart it, and the tools register themselves.
Configuration is passed through the environment: LINKEDIN_ACCESS_TOKEN. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Linkedin's toolset — create_post, create_article_post, create_image_post and 4 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by GitHub Actions; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
