LinkedIn MCP Server: schedule LinkedIn posts from Claude or ChatGPT

https://app.distinctful.com/api/mcpWorks with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, and any MCP client.
What you can do with the LinkedIn MCP server
Ask in plain words. Your AI works from your own strategy, calendar, and results in Distinctful.
Plan a week of LinkedIn
Ask for a week around a launch or a theme, review the drafts, and have them land on your calendar in one go.
Write from your strategy
It reads your positioning, audience, voice rules, and pillars before it writes, so posts sound like you and stay on topic.
See which posts landed
It reads views and engagement on the LinkedIn posts Distinctful published and compares each one with your usual.
Learn from LinkedIn outliers
It browses Discover for LinkedIn posts in your niche that beat their creator’s usual, and drafts your own take.
Turn long writing into posts
Give it a newsletter, a talk, or notes and it drafts LinkedIn posts from the strongest ideas, ready for you to edit.
Prompts to try
Copy one into Claude or ChatGPT once you are connected.
- “Turn this blog post into a LinkedIn post in my voice and schedule it for Tuesday at 9am.”
- “Plan five LinkedIn posts for next week around our pricing change and put them on my calendar.”
- “Which of my LinkedIn posts from the last 30 days beat my usual, and what do they have in common?”
- “Find this week’s strongest LinkedIn outliers for founders in Discover and draft my take on the best one.”
- “What do I have scheduled on LinkedIn next week?”
- “Save this as an idea in my Hooks folder: most founders explain the product before the problem.”

LinkedIn MCP server questions
Do I need an API key?
No. Your tool signs in to Distinctful through OAuth, so you approve access on a Distinctful screen and never paste a key.
Can it post to a LinkedIn company page?
No. Distinctful posts as your member profile. Company page publishing is not part of the LinkedIn connection.
Can it add images to a LinkedIn post?
Your AI writes the post and plans it. Add up to 20 images, or one video, to the draft in Distinctful before it publishes.
Will the AI post to LinkedIn without asking me?
It schedules or publishes only when you ask, on the accounts you name, and most AI tools confirm before they run an action that changes data. Ask it to plan the post instead and the draft waits on your calendar for you to schedule.
Can it reply to LinkedIn comments or send messages?
No. Distinctful plans, schedules, and publishes your own posts and reads how they performed. It does not reply to comments, send messages, or read private profiles.
Which plan do I need?
Connecting an AI tool through MCP is included on the Grow plan and higher.
