Knit doesn't offer a managed Linear MCP server yet, but its MCP Hub already offers MCP servers for 106 other apps, with managed auth, multi-app servers and built-in monitoring. [See Docs](https://developers.getknit.dev/docs/knit-mcp-server-getting-started) [Request the Linear MCP Server](/book-demo/) Knit vs the official Linear MCP server -------------------------------------- Linear publishes [an official Linear MCP server](https://linear.app/docs/mcp). Here's how it compares with Knit's MCP Hub. #### Official Linear MCP server - **Access and auth:** Each user authorizes Linear separately in every AI client they connect. - **Apps per server:** Linear tools only. Every other app needs its own server and login. - **Monitoring:** Visibility depends on what Linear's own admin tools show. #### Knit MCP Hub - **Access and auth:** Knit manages access: it stores and refreshes credentials, and clients connect with one server URL and token. - **Apps per server:** Combine tools from several apps in a single MCP server. [How it works](https://developers.getknit.dev/docs/knit-mcp-server-getting-started) - **Monitoring:** Built-in monitoring and observability across every app in the server. If Linear is the only app your agent needs, the official server is a good fit. Knit fits when your agent works across several apps, or when you want access and monitoring managed in one place.

Knit's MCP Hub supports 106 apps today, and Linear isn't one of them. Request it from this page and we'll tell you when it's available. Is there an official Linear MCP server?Yes. Linear publishes its own Linear MCP server. It covers Linear only, so an agent that also works in other apps needs a separate server and login for each one. What would Knit add over the official Linear MCP server?The same things Knit's MCP Hub provides for every app it supports: managed access and auth, the option to combine tools from several apps in one server, and built-in monitoring and observability. If Linear is the only app your agent needs, the official server is a good fit. Can I use Knit's MCP Hub with the apps it already supports?Yes. You can create a server with tools from any of the 106 supported apps, combine several apps in one server, and connect it to Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or your own MCP client.
