linkedin-api-mcp

A community-driven Model Context Protocol server that allows AI agents to interact with LinkedIn by driving a headless browser using the user's own logged-in session. It provides tools to read profiles, companies, jobs, posts, and messages, as well as write capabilities to send messages and connection requests, all paced against user-controlled limits.
