Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted LinkedIn MCP that lets an assistant read your synced conversations, search contacts, enrich profiles and draft messages you send yourself.

What you can do
  • Read accounts, conversations and messages, and check credit balance
  • List, import, update and delete contacts and companies; manage custom fields and tags
  • Enrich profiles with work email and phone from third-party providers
  • Create and update views, templates and follow-up sequences
  • Review activity and activity summaries for outbound reporting
  • Load built-in skills and send feedback
When to use it
For founders, consultants and sales teams who want an assistant to triage LinkedIn inboxes, score and tag contacts against an ICP, draft first messages and follow-ups, and report on outbound performance, while keeping every send manual.
Requirements
Remote Streamable HTTP endpoint with OAuth sign-in to a TalkToHumans account; the Pro plan is required. The TalkToHumans browser extension must be connected to LinkedIn and the browser kept open for sync. No LinkedIn password is given; the AI client signs in to TalkToHumans.
Before you install
Imports and enrichment consume TalkToHumans credits, so usage can cost money. Tools can delete contacts, tags and sequences, and write drafts, views and templates. Contact data, including emails and phone numbers, is synced to and enriched through TalkToHumans and 20+ data providers. Drafting only: nothing is sent without your approval.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open LinkedIn MCP (by TalkToHumans) in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.TalkToHumans%2Flinkedin-mcp/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

Why this LinkedIn MCP is safer

LinkedIn has no official MCP server, and its public API doesn't give access to your private messages. Every LinkedIn MCP is third-party, and most fall into one of three groups:

Open-source scrapersCloud LinkedIn toolsTalkToHumans
PaceWhatever pace your agent setsDaily caps sized for campaignsHuman pace, enforced: daily limits plus a gap between every action, per LinkedIn account. Nobody can override them
What 100 agent calls do100 trips to LinkedIn100 trips to LinkedIn, from their serversRead a synced cache, so no more LinkedIn activity than one call
Where LinkedIn actions runA script driving a browser on your machineTheir servers, often behind proxy IPsThe browser you already use. No cloud automation, no proxy IP
Where you workIn your agent's chatIn your agent's chatWherever suits the task: your agent's chat, the TalkToHumans app, or right inside LinkedIn and Sales Navigator
Who presses sendUsually the agentThe agent or a campaignYou. The MCP only drafts

No LinkedIn tool is completely risk-free. Here is how TalkToHumans keeps the risk down:

  • Human pace, enforced. Every action type has its own conservative daily limit and a slightly random gap between actions, so nothing goes out in bursts. Limits belong to the LinkedIn account, so every teammate and every agent shares them. Nobody can raise them, not even your agent.
  • Cache-based sync. Your agent reads a synced copy of your LinkedIn data, not LinkedIn itself. Ask it 100 questions about your inbox and your account sees the same activity as one, with no hopping from profile to profile. The background sync that fills that copy is paced the same way.
  • Runs in your browser. LinkedIn actions go through the browser you already use. No cloud automation, no proxy IPs and no virtual browsers acting on your behalf.
  • Work in the chat, the app or LinkedIn. Everything your agent does also lands in the TalkToHumans app and in panels embedded in LinkedIn's own pages. Check conversations, see what's scheduled and take over by hand wherever you are.
  • Drafts only. The MCP can write a reply or stage a full follow-up sequence. Nothing goes out until you hit send.

What your agent can do on LinkedIn

Founders, consultants, sales teams and agencies use it for the same handful of jobs. Each one has a ready-to-paste prompt further down.

  • Find leads in your network. Describe your ideal customer, and your agent scores your connections. They're already connected to you, so you can message them today.
  • Find the replies you owe. Scan hundreds of LinkedIn, Sales Navigator and Recruiter threads for the ones where someone is waiting on you, every morning if you like.
  • Draft messages in your voice. Your agent researches each person and writes a first message that sounds like you. You review every draft and send it yourself.
  • See what gets replies. Analyze acceptance rates, reply rates and templates, from connection request to booked meeting.
  • Stage follow-up sequences. Follow-ups that stop when the lead replies, written for each person, waiting for you to launch them.
  • Import new leads. Find people showing intent online, or bring in a list from an event or Sales Navigator, and get a ready-to-work view.
  • Score and tag contacts. Fill an ICP score for every contact, or backfill tags on hundreds of conversations the way your team already uses them.
  • Keep your CRM in sync. Combine it with your CRM's MCP to log LinkedIn conversations, or use the native HubSpot integration.

Your agent also gets work email and mobile phone for the people you talk to, from 20+ providers in a waterfall.

Connect your AI client to LinkedIn

You need a TalkToHumans account on the Pro plan, with the TalkToHumans browser extension connected to LinkedIn. Try it free.

Connect Claude to LinkedIn (web and desktop)

  1. In Claude, open Customize > Connectors and click + Add > Add custom connector.
  2. Name it TalkToHumans and paste https://api.talktohumans.app/mcp.
  3. Click Continue, then Add, and sign in to TalkToHumans.

In a chat, click + > Connectors and turn TalkToHumans on. On Team and Enterprise plans, an owner adds it first in Organization settings > Connectors.

Claude Code

bash
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user talktohumans https://api.talktohumans.app/mcp

Then run /mcp in Claude Code, pick talktohumans and sign in.

Connect ChatGPT to LinkedIn

  1. In ChatGPT, open Plugins in the sidebar and click + > Add custom MCP server.
  2. Name it TalkToHumans and paste https://api.talktohumans.app/mcp.
  3. Click Create as a plugin and sign in to TalkToHumans.

In a chat, type @TalkToHumans. Custom MCP servers need a ChatGPT Business, Enterprise or Edu plan.

Codex

bash
codex mcp add talktohumans --url https://api.talktohumans.app/mcpcodex mcp login talktohumans

Cursor

Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json. Cursor asks you to sign in the first time it uses it.

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "talktohumans": {      "url": "https://api.talktohumans.app/mcp"    }  }}

VS Code

Run MCP: Add Server from the Command Palette, choose HTTP, paste https://api.talktohumans.app/mcp, name it talktohumans and choose Global. VS Code asks you to sign in.

n8n and other MCP clients

Any client that supports remote MCP servers over Streamable HTTP with OAuth can use the same URL. The MCP docs have the steps for each client.

Once connected, ask: "Use TalkToHumans to list my LinkedIn accounts."

Prefer a CLI?

Running Claude Code, Codex or another terminal agent, or writing scripts and cron jobs? The LinkedIn CLI (tth) gives your agent the same workspace, safety rules and playbooks, without loading tool definitions into every session.

bash
brew install talktohumans/tap/tthtth auth logintth skill --install

LinkedIn MCP use cases and prompts

Replace the parts in [brackets]. Each prompt works in Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or Cursor once TalkToHumans is connected. They're ordered from the ones people run most.

Find leads in your LinkedIn network

At least 10–20 people in your network probably already fit your ICP, and you can message them without a connection request.

txt
Use TalkToHumans MCP to find up to 20 leads in my LinkedIn networkI should reach out to today for [BUSINESS NAME].
My ICP is: [DESCRIBE YOUR ICP]
Then create a view in TalkToHumans with those 20 leads so I can work through them today.

To find intro paths instead, ask for people who could introduce you to your ICP, why each one is relevant, and a draft of the intro ask.

Find the LinkedIn replies you owe

Leads rarely go cold because they said no. They go cold because nobody answered.

txt
Use TalkToHumans MCP to go through my LinkedIn conversations.List every thread where the other person wrote last and I haven't answered,most important first. Draft a reply for each one. Don't send anything.

Save it as a scheduled task in your AI client for a LinkedIn inbox brief every morning. Your agent reads the inbox synced by the TalkToHumans extension, so keep LinkedIn open in your browser for the latest messages.

Draft LinkedIn messages in your voice

A good first message is the hardest part. Your agent gets you past the blank page, and every draft waits in TalkToHumans until you review and send it.

txt
Use TalkToHumans MCP and open the contacts in this view:[LINK TO THE CONTACT VIEW IN TALKTOHUMANS]
Draft a first message for each of them.
Rules:- Max 3 sentences.- No pitch in the first message. Open a real conversation.- Use their profile or our past conversation to show you know something  true and specific about their world. No fake flattery.- Match their tone, based on how they write or how their profile reads.- Ask yourself: "Would I reply to this if I were them?" If not, rewrite it.- Review your output with https://github.com/hardikpandya/stop-slop/blob/main/SKILL.md
I'll review each message before sending.

Analyze your LinkedIn outbound performance

txt
Use TalkToHumans MCP to analyze my LinkedIn outbound performance over the past 2 weeks.Work out what tends to work and what doesn't, from accepted connection requestto booked meeting. Then tell me what to change, improve or stop doing for the next 2 weeks.
Add charts where they make the analysis easier to read.

Stage LinkedIn follow-up sequences

Most replies come from the follow-up, and writing three of them for every lead is where most people give up. Your agent stages each sequence as a draft. It stops as soon as the lead replies, and nothing starts until you launch it.

txt
Use TalkToHumans MCP to find the contacts who accepted my connection requestin the last 30 days but never replied.
For each one, stage a 2-step follow-up sequence as a draft:- Day 3: a short follow-up that adds one useful, specific thing for them- Day 10: a light last nudge
Same rules as a first message: short, no pitch, specific to them.I'll review and launch each sequence myself.

Find new leads online and import them

Pair TalkToHumans with a web search MCP such as Parallel to find fresh leads every day.

txt
Use Parallel Search MCP to find 20 high-quality leads I should reach out to todayfor [BUSINESS NAME].
My ICP is: [DESCRIBE YOUR ICP]
Prioritize people who recently showed direct or indirect buying intent online:engaging with relevant topics, discussing a problem we solve, or interacting with competitors.
Then:1. Remove duplicates and anyone already in TalkToHumans.2. Import the new leads with TalkToHumans MCP.3. Create a view for them so I can start working through them.

Import a LinkedIn lead list you already have

Got a list from an event, a webinar, a Sales Navigator search or another tool? Your agent imports up to 500 LinkedIn profiles at a time.

txt
Use TalkToHumans MCP to import the people from this list:[PASTE LINKEDIN PROFILE URLS, OR ATTACH A CSV WITH A LINKEDIN URL COLUMN]
Skip anyone already in TalkToHumans, tag them "[TAG NAME]", and create a view for them.Then draft a first message for each one that mentions [WHERE THEY COME FROM, E.G. THE EVENT].

Score contacts against your ICP

Your agent stores the score in an "ICP score" custom field, so you can sort and filter your contacts by it.

txt
Use TalkToHumans MCP and open the contacts in this view:[LINK TO THE CONTACT VIEW IN TALKTOHUMANS]
If a contact custom field named "ICP score" doesn't exist yet, create it.Then analyze each contact one by one and fill in their ICP score.
Our ICP is: [DESCRIBE YOUR ICP]
Use web search and their company website to be more accurate.

Tag LinkedIn contacts and conversations automatically

Tags work well when you're working through new conversations. To backfill hundreds of old ones, hand it to your agent. Keep tags few and simple, like "Hot lead", "Friend", "Candidate", "Investor" or "Spam": a contact with no tag is better than a wrong one.

txt
Use TalkToHumans MCP. First, look at our existing tags and how we use them.Then tag every lead that has no tags, using those existing tags,based on our conversations and what you know about the contact and their company.
Rules:- Reuse existing tags. Only create a new one if none fits, and keep the list short.- Tags are 1-2 words in plain English, like "Hot lead", "Friend", "Candidate", "Investor", "Spam".- One tag per contact is usually enough.- If you're unsure, don't tag the contact.

Log LinkedIn conversations in your CRM

Using HubSpot? The native integration on the Pro plan already syncs it. For any other CRM with an MCP server, such as Attio or Twenty, your agent can do it:

txt
Use TalkToHumans MCP and my CRM's MCP.For every LinkedIn conversation with a new message in the last 7 days:1. Find the matching person in my CRM, or create them if they're missing.2. Add a two-line summary of the conversation as a note.3. If their work email is missing in my CRM, find it with TalkToHumans MCP.

FAQ

What is a LinkedIn MCP server?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard that lets AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor use outside tools. A LinkedIn MCP server connects your agent to your LinkedIn data. It can read your conversations, search your network and prepare messages, instead of you copying everything into a chat.

Is there an official LinkedIn MCP?

No. LinkedIn doesn't offer an MCP server, and its public API doesn't cover private messages. Every LinkedIn MCP is third-party.

Can my agent send LinkedIn messages on its own?

No, and that's on purpose. Your agent can read, sort and draft, down to a full follow-up sequence. Every message that carries your name still gets your approval.

Do I have to give you my LinkedIn password?

No. TalkToHumans works through your logged-in browser session. Your AI client signs in to TalkToHumans, not to LinkedIn.

How fresh is the data?

Your workspace syncs while your browser is open with the TalkToHumans extension on, newest conversations first. Older message history loads when you open a conversation in TalkToHumans.

Is there a LinkedIn CLI?

Yes. The LinkedIn CLI (tth) is the same workspace from the terminal, for Claude Code, Codex, scripts and cron jobs. It only drafts too. See the CLI docs.

Is there a LinkedIn API too?

Yes. The Pro plan also includes a REST API for contacts, companies, conversations, drafts, views and activity. See the developer docs.

Which plan includes the MCP?

MCP, CLI and API access come with the Pro plan, alongside sequences, analytics and CRM integrations.
