The LFX MCP Server is available as a hosted, production service at:
https://mcp.lfx.dev/mcp
You will be prompted to log in with your Linux Foundation account (LFID) the first time you connect. All MCP permissions correspond to LFX platform permissions granted to your LFID.
The following clients are set up to work with the LFX MCP Server. Please file an issue to request additional client support. Running the LFX MCP Server as a local (stdio) MCP server is not supported at this time.
Copy-paste into your browser location bar:
goose://extension?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.lfx.dev%2Fmcp&type=streamable_http&id=lfx&name=LFX&description=LFX%20MCP%20Server
Start a new chat and Goose will open a browser window for LFID login.
- Run
goose configure. - Select Add Extension → Remote Extension (Streamable HTTP).
- Enter
LFXas the name. - Enter
https://mcp.lfx.dev/mcpas the URI. - Enter
300for the timeout. - Enter

After it acknowledges that your configuration was saved, running goose will open a browser window for LFID login.
OpenCode requires a client ID. The following client ID only works with OpenCode.
Add the following to your ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json:
{
"$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
"mcp": {
"lfx-mcp-server": {
"type": "remote",
"url": "https://mcp.lfx.dev/mcp",
"enabled": true,
"oauth": {
"clientId": "LnBd9qGpwjXNs26aZxeXSkTCs0ac4zgM"
}
}
}
}See the OpenCode MCP documentation for more details.
In Zed, open the Agent panel settings (ellipsis button) → Add Custom Server → Remote. Enter the following:
{
"lfx": {
"url": "https://mcp.lfx.dev/mcp"
}
}Click Add Server → Authenticate to open a browser window for LFID login.
If you use the Linux Foundation's enterprise Claude.ai organization, the LFX MCP Server is already provisioned as a connector in both Claude Desktop and Claude Code.
- From the sidebar, select Customize → Connectors.
- Find LFX in the list.
- Click Connect and sign in with your LFID.
Run /mcp inside Claude Code and select claude.ai LFX → Authenticate. Claude Code will open a browser window for LFID login.
- From the sidebar, select Customize → Connectors.
- Use the + button and select Add Custom Connector.
- Enter LFX and the URL
https://mcp.lfx.dev/mcp. - Press Add, then Connect and sign in with your LFID.
claude mcp add --transport http lfx https://mcp.lfx.dev/mcpRun /mcp inside Claude Code and select lfx → Authenticate. Claude Code will open a browser for LFID login.
Run MCP: Open User Configuration to open the mcp.json file to add the LFX MCP server in your user-level config:
{
"servers": {
"lfx": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.lfx.dev/mcp"
}
}
}VS Code will prompt you to trust the server, then open a browser window for Linux Foundation SSO.
Cursor requires a client ID. The following client ID only works with Cursor.
Add the following to your ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"lfx": {
"url": "https://mcp.lfx.dev/mcp",
"auth": {
"CLIENT_ID": "HwGWwUy4uvqVQYDsuXb9IVamzcUhdZj5"
}
}
}
}If your MCP client is not listed here, you may try using mcp-remote as a local proxy.
The client ID shown here is only for embedding mcp-remote as a proxy and does not support direct MCP client use.
The port 3334 is required so that the OAuth callback URL matches the registered client. Please refer to your client's documentation for the exact configuration syntax.
{
"mcpServers": {
"lfx": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"mcp-remote",

"{\"client_id\":\"tjrXD5ZJORf6rpngMSRqqPmf3W1bnHEV\"}"
]
}
}
}A browser window will open for authentication on first use. To re-authenticate, clear cached credentials with:
rm -rf ~/.mcp-authMCP Inspector requires a client ID. The following client ID only works with MCP Inspector.
MCP Inspector is a browser-based tool for exploring and testing MCP servers. To connect it to the LFX MCP Server:
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --transport http --server-url https://mcp.lfx.dev/mcpFrom the MCP Inspector sidebar, find Authentication → OAuth 2.0 Flow → Client ID and enter 4ibLLbnz9kwMEcE3RUCUH51F0RS3Hx3O.
