}Authenticating Over OAuth
The server authenticates securely over OAuth 2.0 with PKCE. After you sign in, your client securely receives and stores tokens for subsequent requests. Only existing LinkedRefs members can connect. The server does not create accounts or organizations.
Supported Protocols
Any MCP client that speaks Streamable HTTP and supports OAuth works out of the box. We have verified Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, and Google Gemini. No custom proxies or complex setups required.
