As a local MCP server: npm package
Built from what Official MCP Registry declares.
claude mcp add --env "GITHUB_TOKEN=<YOUR_GITHUB_TOKEN>" --env "LINEAR_ACCESS_TOKEN=<YOUR_LINEAR_ACCESS_TOKEN>" --env "LINEAR_ALLOWED_ORGANIZATION_ID=<YOUR_LINEAR_ALLOWED_ORGANIZATION_ID>" --env "LINEAR_API_KEY=<YOUR_LINEAR_API_KEY>" --transport stdio linear-project -- npx -y @openly-useful/linear-project-mcp-server[mcp_servers.linear-project]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "@openly-useful/linear-project-mcp-server"]
[mcp_servers.linear-project.env]
GITHUB_TOKEN = "<YOUR_GITHUB_TOKEN>"
LINEAR_ACCESS_TOKEN = "<YOUR_LINEAR_ACCESS_TOKEN>"
LINEAR_ALLOWED_ORGANIZATION_ID = "<YOUR_LINEAR_ALLOWED_ORGANIZATION_ID>"
LINEAR_API_KEY = "<YOUR_LINEAR_API_KEY>"{
"mcpServers": {
"linear-project": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@openly-useful/linear-project-mcp-server"
],
"env": {

}
}
}
}Replace the values in angle brackets with your own. We show the names of the settings, never values.
Optional settings it also lists: GITHUB_ALLOWED_REPOSITORIES, LINEAR_ALLOWED_PROJECT_IDS, LINEAR_ALLOWED_SCOPE_CODES, LINEAR_ALLOWED_TEAM_IDS, MCP_AUDIT_LOG_PATH, MCP_WRITES_ENABLED, MCP_WRITE_WINDOW_EXPIRES_AT, OBSIDIAN_ALLOWED_DIRECTORIES, OBSIDIAN_VAULT_NAME, OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH.
We do not store launch arguments. If the server needs any, its own documentation names them.

Found by meaning, not by shared code or a shared repository: similar plugins stay separate products, and this is not a review or a recommendation.
Is this your plugin?
Add it to your projects and prove you maintain it with a file in its repository, a file on your domain or a DNS record. You get alerts when a marketplace lists it, drops it, changes its verified mark or what it asks for, and its remote endpoint goes on monitoring as a web service.
Data comes from the Official MCP Registry (registry.modelcontextprotocol.io), CC0 1.0. Figures come from our own regular passes over the marketplaces, last read on . We publish no contact details for plugin publishers.
