@loopstack/mcp-linear-example-workflow

Demonstrates how to connect a Loopstack chat agent to Linear’s hosted MCP server  using @loopstack/mcp-module.

By using this example you’ll get…

• A parent workflow that launches ChatAgentWorkflow with mcp_list_tools and mcp_call
• A reference @InjectTool config with allowedHosts and hostHeaderEnv (on the workflow class for documentation)
• A safe, minimal pattern for talking to a hosted MCP server with OAuth-style auth

Workspace registration required. Because this example uses ChatAgentWorkflow as a sub-workflow, MCP tools must also be registered on your workspace with the same @InjectTool config — not only on McpLinearExampleWorkflow. While the chat agent runs, tool resolution uses the executing workflow (ChatAgentWorkflow) and then the workspace. See @loopstack/mcp-module — Registering the tools . The app template shows this in default.workspace.ts.

Installation

npm install @loopstack/mcp-linear-example-workflow

The package depends on @loopstack/mcp-module and @loopstack/agent.

Environment

Set the Linear OAuth token (the header value is sent raw, so include the Bearer prefix):

LINEAR_MCP_TOKEN="Bearer lin_oauth_..."

Linear’s MCP endpoint requires an OAuth access token. Personal API keys (lin_api_*) will not authenticate.

How It Works

1. Import McpModule and register McpListToolsTool / McpCallTool on your workspace with mcp.linear.app in allowedHosts (copy the config from mcp-linear-example.workflow.ts).
2. hostHeaderEnv maps Authorization → LINEAR_MCP_TOKEN for the Linear host. The value is read at call time, never logged.
3. McpLinearExampleWorkflow starts ChatAgentWorkflow with tools: ['mcp_list_tools', 'mcp_call'].
4. The chat agent calls Linear’s MCP at https://mcp.linear.app/mcp over Streamable HTTP.
