LinkedIn MCP Server

What is LinkedIn MCP Server?

LinkedIn MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides three automation tools for LinkedIn: job searching, networking through auto-connect and outreach, and contact scraping into Excel. It uses Puppeteer to control a browser and requires manual LinkedIn login. It is intended for users who want to automate LinkedIn tasks via an MCP client.

How to use LinkedIn MCP Server?

Install Node.js 18.0.0 or higher, clone the repository, run npm install, optionally copy config.example.env to .env, then start the server with npm start. The server exposes three tools: find_job_openings, auto_connect_and_outreach, and scrape_contacts_to_excel. Each tool is invoked by an MCP client with the required JSON arguments (e.g., skills, target roles, profile URLs).
