LinkFetch: LinkedIn MCP server

LinkedIn MCP server for Claude, Cursor and any AI agent

<!-- mcp-name: io.linkfetch/linkedin -->

linkfetch-mcp gives any AI agent a full set of LinkedIn tools: search every public LinkedIn job since April 2026, look up companies, score and sort them with AI functions, and, through a LinkedIn account you connect, search people and posts, read profiles and your inbox, and send messages and connection requests.

It is a small stdio bridge to LinkFetch's hosted MCP server: every tool call goes to https://linkfetch.io/mcp with your API key, so the tools and prices are always current and nothing runs a browser on your machine. If your client supports remote MCP over HTTP, you can skip this package and use the URL directly.

Full tool list with prices, and setup for each client: linkfetch.io/mcp/claude

Tools

• Jobs and companies (no LinkedIn account needed): searchjobs, getjob, searchcompanies, getcompany
• AI functions: aiscore, aiclassify, aiextract, aiwrite, each over up to 25 jobs or companies
• Your leads: listleads, savelead, listleadlists
• Through your connected LinkedIn account: people and company search, profiles, employees, posts and reactions, connections, invitations, conversations, messages, comments, reactions, follows

Each call costs a flat number of credits, stated in the tool's description. Every connected account works inside daily and weekly limits that LinkFetch enforces whatever the agent asks for.

Setup

Create an API key (lf…) on the MCP page of your LinkFetch dashboard. New accounts start with free credits. Then add the server to your client: every client runs npx -y linkfetch-mcp with LINKFETCHAPI_KEY set. Node.js 18+ is required.

Upgrading from 0.1.x? Keys starting with sklive stopped working when LinkFetch 2 launched in October 2026. Create a new lf_… key and replace it in your config.

Claude Desktop

Settings → Developer → Edit Config, or edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claudedesktopconfig.json (macOS) / %APPDATA%\Claude\claudedesktopconfig.json (Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "linkfetch": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "linkfetch-mcp"],
      "env": { "LINKFETCH_API_KEY": "lf_..." }
    }
  }
}

Fully quit and reopen Claude.

claude mcp add linkfetch -e LINKFETCH_API_KEY=lf_... -- npx -y linkfetch-mcp

Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, Cline

These use the same mcpServers block as Claude Desktop above. Put it in:
