Connect your client

Connect Cursor, VS Code & Windsurf

Add the Linkeddit connector to editor-based AI clients over OAuth.

Editors with native remote MCP

Cursor, VS Code (with an MCP extension), and Windsurf accept an HTTP MCP server entry. Where the client supports remote OAuth, add the URL with no headers and authorize in the browser when prompted:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "linkeddit": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.linkeddit.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}json

If the client asks for an OAuth Client ID (because Linkeddit does not auto-register clients), enter linkeddit-mcp-claude and leave the Client Secret blank.

Clients without native OAuth (mcp-remote)

If your client can't do the OAuth handshake itself, bridge it with mcp-remote, which opens a browser to authorize and then proxies the connection:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "linkeddit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://mcp.linkeddit.com/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}json

Reload the editor after saving, complete the browser authorization, then confirm the Linkeddit tools appear in the MCP tools list.

Because Linkeddit does not support dynamic client registration, pass the pre-registered client id to mcp-remote: add --static-oauth-client-info '{"client_id":"linkeddit-mcp-claude"}' to the args. There is no client secret.
