LinkedIn Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server

*

A powerful Model Context Protocol server for LinkedIn interactions that enables AI assistants to search for jobs, generate resumes and cover letters, and manage job applications programmatically.

Features

• Authentication: Secure LinkedIn authentication with session management
• Profile Management: Access and update LinkedIn profile information
• Job Search: Search for jobs with flexible filtering options
• Resume Generation: Create customized resumes from LinkedIn profiles
• Cover Letter Generation: Generate tailored cover letters for specific job applications
• Job Applications: Submit and track job applications

Components:

• MCP Handler: Routes requests to appropriate service handlers
• API Modules: Specialized modules for LinkedIn interactions (auth, job search, profile, etc.)
• Core Protocol: Defines request/response structures and data models
• Utilities: Configuration management and helper functions
