Linkly is a service that turns long web addresses into short, branded links and tracks who clicks them. This MCP server is the official connector that lets your AI assistant work with your Linkly account for you. It is handy if you share links in emails, posts, or campaigns and want to see how they perform without clicking around a dashboard.

What is an MCP server? The 30-second version

On its own, your AI can only chat with you. An MCP server is a small helper that gives your AI a new skill or a connection to an app. This one connects your AI to Linkly, so it can look up your links, create new ones, and pull click numbers when you ask. You stay in the chat, and the helper does the running around.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI something like "make a short link for this page" or "how many clicks did my launch link get last week?". The AI passes your request to this Linkly helper. The helper talks to your Linkly account and does the work, like creating the short link or counting clicks by country. Then it sends the answer back, and your AI shows it to you in plain words.

Flow diagram: you ask your AI “Make a short link for this page”, the Linkly MCP server connects it to Linkly, and you get back short link or click stats.

“How many clicks did my newsletter link get in the last 30 days?”
“Show me my top five links by clicks this month”
“List my custom domains and tell me which one has the most links”

What it gives back to you

You get answers in the chat: a new short link with its address, a list of your links, or numbers like total clicks and a breakdown by country or platform. Exports come back as detailed click records you can read or save. When it changes something, like creating or deleting a link, it tells you what it did.
