Instructions

How this product works — pick your engine, then talk to LinkedIn in chat.

You are on the web app

This site is LinkedMCP — account, LinkedIn connect, and guides. The agent is Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, or Copilot. Connect LinkedIn here, then fold open your engine below and add the MCP there.

Install in your agent

This page is the product. The agent is Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, or Copilot. Fold one open.

  1. 1

    Add to Cursor

    Opens the Cursor app and offers LinkedMCP.

  2. 2

    Confirm

    Accept the MCP in the Cursor prompt.

  3. 3

    Log in

    Browser OAuth — same account as this site.

  4. 4

    Ask in chat

    “What’s in my LinkedIn?”

  1. 1

    Open Claude

    We fill name + MCP URL in Add custom connector.

  2. 2

    Create the connector

    Confirm LinkedMCP in the Claude dialog.

  3. 3

    Log in

    OAuth in the browser — same account as this site.

  4. 4

    New chat

    Turn the connector on, then ask about LinkedIn.

Needs the public HTTPS URL (linkedmcp.xyz), not localhost.

  1. 1

    Copy the command

    It adds LinkedMCP over HTTP.

  2. 2

    Paste in a terminal

    Run it where the Claude Code CLI is installed.

  3. 3

    Restart if needed

    Quit Claude Code fully if tools look stale.

  4. 4

    Ask in chat

    “What’s in my LinkedIn?”

  1. 1

    Turn on Developer mode

    Settings → Security and login → Developer mode. Do this first or the next link does nothing useful.

  2. 2

    Go to Plugins

    chatgpt.com/plugins — not Settings.

  3. 3

    Browse Plugins

    Scroll to the bottom and click Browse Plugins. The + is not on the catalog itself.

  4. 4

    Hit +

    That opens the create-connector dialog. Open Plugins jumps you here after Developer mode. Name it LinkedMCP and paste the MCP URL — we copy it for you.

  5. 5

    Finish OAuth

    Log in with the same LinkedMCP account.

  6. 6

    Enable it in a chat

    New chat → tools menu → LinkedMCP.

Open Plugins

Not on free ChatGPT or mobile. Custom MCP is hidden until Developer mode is on. Writes are most reliable on Business / Enterprise / Edu.

  1. 1

    Add in VS Code

    Opens the Copilot / VS Code MCP install.

  2. 2

    Trust LinkedMCP

    Confirm the server when VS Code asks.

  3. 3

    Log in

    Browser OAuth — same account as this site.

  4. 4

    Ask in chat

    “What’s in my LinkedIn?”

What to say

Connect LinkedIn · what’s in my inbox · who do I need to reply to? · anything new? · look up a linkedin.com/in/ URL · am I connected to these people? · send a connection · send InMail · show usage · invite a teammate. Confirm message wording before the agent sends. invite is a teammate on this workspace, not a LinkedIn invite.

Quotas

Each LinkedIn plan has safe daily/monthly caps (messages, profile views, search, connection requests, InMail). get_usage shows what is left. The agent warns around 80%. At 100% it needs you to accept going over. Character limits cannot be overridden. “Anything new?” does not spend the messages quota.
