LinkedIn MCP for Claude: connect LinkedIn and X to Claude

To connect LinkedIn and X to Claude, add Flaghand's MCP server, https://app.flaghand.com/mcp, as a custom connector under Customize › Connectors and sign in. Claude can then draft LinkedIn and X posts in your chat and send them to you for approval. You approve each exact post with your passkey, and Flaghand posts it at the time you approved.

Checked on October 28, 2026, against Claude's help center and Flaghand's setup docs, linked under Sources.

Connect it in five steps

1. Add the connector. In Claude on the web or the desktop app, open Customize › Connectors, click + Add, then Add custom connector. Name it Flaghand, enter https://app.flaghand.com/mcp and click Continue. If Claude asks how to sign in, choose Sign in now and Use Claude's published identity. There's no client ID, secret or API key to make.

2. Sign in to Flaghand. Click Add, then Connect if Claude asks. Flaghand's page opens: sign in with your passkey, Google or email and click Allow (pick the workspace first if you have more than one). No account yet? Use the sign-up link on that page, Start your free trial, to create one with a passkey, Google or email, without a card, then return and click Allow. There's no separate site sign-up to do first.

3. Turn it on in this chat. Open + › Connectors in the chat and switch Flaghand on.

4. Connect your social accounts. In Flaghand, connect your LinkedIn profile and X account under Settings › Account. Each network shows its own sign-in; Flaghand never asks for your LinkedIn password or browser cookies.

5. Ask for a post. Try:

   Use Flaghand: draft a LinkedIn post about what I learned this week, and send it to me for approval.

Claude writes the post, Flaghand checks it against LinkedIn's rules, and Claude gives you an approval link. Open it on your phone or computer, look at the post as LinkedIn will show it, and approve with Face ID, Touch ID or a security key. Nothing posts until you do.

On Team or Enterprise, an owner adds the connector once under Organization settings › Connectors, and each member clicks Connect with their own Flaghand account. Claude's Free plan allows one custom connector; Pro and Max allow more. A connector added on the web or desktop also works in Claude's mobile apps.

What Claude can and can't do through Flaghand

Claude's Flaghand token has four scopes: read, drafts, media and request-approval. None of them can approve, schedule or post, so Flaghand's server refuses Claude if it tries. You approve the exact post: its text, media, account and time. Any change needs a new approval.

Flaghand posts to LinkedIn only through LinkedIn's official API, and only to your personal profile. It doesn't post as a company page, and it doesn't read profiles, your feed, messages or jobs. If you need those, see the best LinkedIn MCP servers, compared.

Questions
