LinkedIn Jobs MCP Server

Self-hosted MCP server that scrapes LinkedIn jobs via the linkedin-api Voyager wrapper. Runs in Docker. No Apify, no per-run costs.

Setup

1. Configure credentials

cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and fill in your LinkedIn email and password

⚠️ Use a burner LinkedIn account — automated access violates LinkedIn's ToS and risks the account being restricted.

2. Build and test

# Build the Docker image
docker build -t linkedin-mcp .

# Quick smoke test — should print the MCP server startup log
docker run --rm --env-file .env linkedin-mcp
# Ctrl+C to stop

3. Wire into Claude Desktop

Edit your Claude Desktop config file:

  • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "linkedin-jobs": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": [
        "run", "--rm", "-i",
        "--env-file", "/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/linkedin-mcp/.env",
        "linkedin-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

⚠️ Use the absolute path to your .env file. ~/ does not expand here.

4. Restart Claude Desktop

After saving the config, fully quit and reopen Claude Desktop. You'll see a 🔧 tools icon in the chat bar — click it to confirm scrape_jobs, get_job_details, and check_auth are listed.

5. First conversation

You: Check if my LinkedIn session is authenticated
Claude: [calls check_auth] ✓ Authenticated as John Doe

You: Scrape 20 AI Engineer or ML Engineer jobs posted in the last 3 days in the US
Claude: [calls scrape_jobs] ...returns full job list with descriptions
