Linear MCP Server
The Linear MCP server lets any AI agent — Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or Codex — call Linear through AllMCP's single hosted endpoint. Connect once and your agent gets 100 Linear tools across issues, users, teams, projects, labels, comments. There is nothing to install or keep running: AllMCP hosts the connector, you get one URL and one sign-in.

How to connect an AI agent to Linear
- Add the AllMCP endpoint
https://go.allmcp.co/mcp/ to any MCP client (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex). Sign in with Google or GitHub when the browser opens — no card, no passwords. - Ask your agent to connect Linear. Paste your Linear API key (or webhook URL) into the secure AllMCP connect page your agent links you to. Your key is encrypted at rest and the agent never sees it.
- Your agent can now call all 100 Linear tools directly. The first 20,000 tool calls each month are free; system and discovery calls never count.

}Linear connects with an API key or webhook URL you paste into a secure AllMCP page — the agent never sees it.

Frequently asked questions
Does Linear have an MCP server?
Yes. AllMCP is a remote, hosted MCP server for Linear — 100 Linear tools are available today. Add one URL to your MCP client and your agent can call Linear without you running any server yourself.
How do I connect Claude to Linear?
Add the AllMCP endpoint https://go.allmcp.co/mcp/ in Claude (Desktop, Code, or web), sign in with Google or GitHub, then ask Claude to connect Linear. That's it — the same steps work for ChatGPT, Cursor and Codex.
Is the Linear MCP server free?
Yes, to start. AllMCP includes 20,000 tool calls a month on the free tier, with no card required. Only real provider tool calls count against the quota — listing tools and connecting accounts never do.
What can the Linear MCP server do?
It exposes 100 tools across issues, users, teams, projects, labels, comments, search, cycles, so an agent can read and act on your Linear data in natural language.
How are my Linear credentials stored?
Encrypted at rest and never written to logs. Disconnecting Linear revokes them immediately, and deleting your AllMCP account erases them.
