MCP Agent Compatibility¶
LinkedIn MCP Pro works as a stdio MCP server, so it plugs into any host that
launches MCP servers via a command + args pair in a JSON config. The
installer ships with first-class support for the following agents.
| Agent | OS | Config path | Install command |
|---|---|---|---|
| Claude Desktop | macOS | ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json |
linkedin-mcp-install add claude-desktop-mac |
| Claude Desktop | Linux | ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json |
linkedin-mcp-install add claude-desktop-linux |
| Claude Desktop | Windows | %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json |
linkedin-mcp-install add claude-desktop-win |
| Claude Code | All | ~/.claude.json |
linkedin-mcp-install add claude-code |
| Cursor | All | ~/.cursor/mcp.json |
linkedin-mcp-install add cursor |
| Cline (VS Code) | All | ~/.cline/mcp_settings.json |
linkedin-mcp-install add cline |
| Continue.dev | All | ~/.continue/config.json |
linkedin-mcp-install add continue |
| Windsurf | All | ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json |
linkedin-mcp-install add windsurf |
| Zed | All | ~/.config/zed/settings.json |
linkedin-mcp-install add zed |
| Open WebUI | All | ~/.open-webui/mcp_servers.json |

| LibreChat | All | ~/.librechat/librechat.yaml |
linkedin-mcp-install add librechat |

You can also drive the installer over HTTP via the /api/install/* routes
(see INSTALL.md).
