Use Wingmen from Claude

What Claude can do

Eleven things. Nine of them read, and every connection gets those.

• Pipeline status

  Where the workspace stands right now: leads by status, how many came in today, whether discovery and outreach are running, and which list approved leads are saved to.

• Leads waiting on you

  The queue in Lead Radar, highest score first, with enough on each person to make the call.

• Contact search

  Find a saved contact or lead by name, company or email. It covers both your saved contacts and the leads the copilot found, and someone who is in both is returned once, tagged with where they came from. You can narrow it to a discovery status (approved, pending, low_confidence, removed), which searches the copilot's leads rather than your saved contacts.

• Campaign performance

  How the agents are doing: leads enrolled, invites sent, acceptances, replies, send failures, and the all-time funnel.

• Conversations

  Your Wingmen inbox. Filter by sentiment or search by lead name.

• Usage against your plan

  Contacts generated, messages sent, AI credits, connected accounts, and how much of each is left.

• Your ICP

  The ideal customer profile exactly as scoring and targeting read it, not a summary of it.

• Your LinkedIn connections

  Search the people you are already connected to, by name and headline. It answers from a copy we hold, so it is instant and costs nothing. Every answer says how much of your network has been read so far, so a count is never mistaken for the whole thing.

• Read in more of your connections

  Fetches the next few hundred of your own connections into that copy. A large network takes several goes, and it picks up where it stopped. It sends nothing and contacts nobody; it uses your account's own daily allowance for reading your connection list.

Two more, only if you allow them

You choose between read only and read plus approving leads when you connect: on the consent screen in the browser, or when you create a key for Claude Code or Desktop. A read-only connection cannot see or call either of these.

• Approve a lead

  Saves a lead from the queue to your target list. Nothing goes out at that moment. The campaign engine drains that list on its own schedule, under the same pacing, billing and safety limits as an approval you click yourself.

• Dismiss a lead

  Takes a lead out of the queue so it stops coming back. Nothing is deleted, the lead stays on record as removed.

What it cannot do

Claude cannot send a message or an email, send a connection request, view anyone's profile, post, comment, enrich a lead, spend your credits, or change your targeting. Those are not exposed to it at all, on either scope, so there is no prompt that reaches them. Reading in your connections is the one thing that touches LinkedIn at all, and it only reads your own connection list, which nobody is notified about.

Setting it up

1. Claude on the web, the short way

No key to copy and nothing to paste into a config file. In Claude, open Settings, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and give it this address:

https://app.flywingmen.com/api/mcp

Paste it exactly as it is, starting with https://. Claude will not accept the bare domain. You will land on a Wingmen page that names your workspace and lists what the connection can and cannot do; press Allow and you are connected. If you are not signed in to Wingmen yet it will ask you to, then bring you straight back to that page.

2. Claude Code and Claude Desktop

These use a key instead. In Wingmen, open Settings and pick the Claude / MCP access tab. Give the key a name so you can tell your keys apart later, choose what Claude may do, then press Create key. The key is shown once, so copy it before you close that panel. The same panel hands you both snippets below with your key already filled in.

2a. Claude Code

Run this in your terminal, with your own key in place of the placeholder.

claude mcp add --transport http wingmen https://app.flywingmen.com/api/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer wgm_live_your_key_here"

2b. Claude Desktop

Add this to your Claude Desktop config file (Settings, Developer, Edit Config), then restart Claude Desktop. The mcp-remote command it runs is the bridge a desktop client uses to reach a server that lives on the web.

3. Ask it something

• “What is in my pipeline right now?”
• “Who is waiting on a decision, best first?”
• “How did my agents do this week, and where am I losing people?”
• “Anything hot sitting in my inbox?”
• “Am I close to any of my plan limits?”

Access and safety

• The key is shown once

  Wingmen keeps only a fingerprint of it, so no screen can show it to you again, and no one at Wingmen can read it back. If you lose it, create a new one and revoke the old.

• Revoke anytime

  Settings, Claude / MCP access, the revoke button next to the key. It stops working immediately and anything connected with it loses access on the next call.

• Read only unless you say otherwise

  Approving leads is a separate choice at the moment you connect, shown on the consent screen or picked when you create a key. It is not a setting Claude can change later.

• A connection sees one workspace

  The workspace is fixed at the moment you connect. Nothing in a request can point it at anyone else's data.

• Every call is recorded

  Calls land in the audit trail marked as coming from Claude, so an approval made this way never reads as you clicking it in the app.

• It follows your subscription

  An active subscription or a running trial is what keeps the connection alive, and that is checked on every single request rather than once at setup. If your plan lapses, Claude stops being able to reach your workspace immediately and says why. Start paying again and it works again, with nothing to reconnect and no new key to make.

• There is a daily ceiling

  500 calls per workspace per day. A normal conversation is nowhere near that. It is there so a client stuck in a loop stops instead of running all night.

If you made a key, treat it like a password: anyone holding it has the access above until you revoke it. A browser connection has no key to lose, and you end it the same way, from Settings.
