Claude Cowork is Anthropic's agent for general knowledge work. It can use your computer, files, and connected applications to complete longer-running tasks across your work tools. With Composio Connect, Cowork can securely access apps like Linkedin through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent. ## What is the Linkedin MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Linkedin MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Linkedin account. It provides structured and secure access to your LinkedIn profile and company pages, so your agent can post updates, fetch your profile, manage company info, and even delete posts on your behalf. - Automated LinkedIn posting: Let your agent create and share new posts from your profile or managed company pages, keeping your network engaged without manual effort. - Profile information retrieval: Instantly fetch your LinkedIn profile details, including author ID and headline, for use in resumes, reporting, or personalized content generation. - Company page management: Retrieve a list of organizations you manage, making it easy for your agent to post or gather company info for employer branding and outreach. - Content cleanup and moderation: Direct your agent to delete specific LinkedIn posts (by share ID) to maintain a professional, up-to-date presence. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `LINKEDIN_CREATE_ARTICLE_OR_URL_SHARE` | Create article or URL share | Tool to create an article or URL share on LinkedIn using the UGC Posts API.

With a standalone Linkedin MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Linkedin tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Linkedin and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint. ### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Claude Cowork? Yes, you can. Claude Cowork fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Linkedin tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Linkedin while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Linkedin scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do. ### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router? All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Linkedin data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
