# Linear MCP Server Extension for Zed
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Linear has an [official MCP Server](https://linear.app/docs/mcp).
> It is a remote server and doesn't need to be installed. See the [config](#official-linear-mcp-server-configuration) below.
> You should use that one instead.
This extension integrates [(Unofficial) Linear MCP Server](https://github.com/odgrim/linear-mcp) as a context server for [Zed's](https://zed.dev) [Agent Panel.](https://zed.dev/docs/ai/overview)
Several were analyzed and this one worked the best in practice.
You'll need to grab a Linear access token for your account.

```json
"context_servers": {
"mcp-server-linear": {
"settings": {
"linear_api_key": "<LINEAR_API_KEY>"
}
}
}
```
## Official Linear MCP Server Configuration
Linear has an official MCP and it's easy to customize and doesn't require an extension to help with the installation.
```json
"context_servers": {
"mcp-server-linear": { // name can be whatever you want
"url": "https://mcp.linear.app/mcp",
"headers": { // optional, if you don't want to use the OAuth flow
"Authorization": "Bearer <your linear token>"
}
}
}
```
