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

Architecture

This project implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) specification, allowing AI assistants to interact with LinkedIn through standardized JSON-RPC style requests and responses.

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
