`Connect via Linden MCP Remote Server`

You can use external tools or apps to interact with your Linden account via our remote MCP server. This page explains what that means, why it's useful, and what you can do through it — all in simple terms.

OVERVIEW

`What is MCP (“Model Context Protocol”)?`

MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. It’s a standard interface that enables apps and tools to communicate with a system (like Linden) in a structured, predictable, and secure way.

Rather than building custom integrations for every tool, MCP offers a common “bridge” so tools can request actions (like “get profile” or “list family members”) without knowing Linden’s internal architecture.

A remote MCP server means this bridge is exposed over the Internet, so authorized tools can reach it from any location.

Follow these instructions to link a tool or app to your Linden account via MCP:

Choose or install the tool

Enter the MCP endpoint

Use the external app or tool you want to connect
(Cursor, ChatGPT).

Enter the MCP endpoint

In the tool’s settings or connection dialog, set the MCP URL to: https://mylinden.family/mcp/

Authenticate / authorize

The tool will redirect you or prompt you to log in to your MyLinden account. You’ll see a consent screen asking which permissions (scopes) it needs (read, write, etc.). Approve only what you’re comfortable with.

Tool invokes actions

After authorization, the tool may call MCP “methods,” such as `getAccountDetails`, `listFamilyMembers`, `createContact`, or `getReminders`.

You get responses

The responses (data) come back in structured form (e.g. JSON) and the tool displays them.

Manage or revoke access anytime

You can return to your settings in Linden and revoke or change permissions of any connected tool.
