LinkedIn Claude Automation

Full LinkedIn growth automation using Claude Code and a custom LinkedIn MCP server. Runs daily via Windows Task Scheduler with zero manual interaction required.

What it does

Every day at 2pm automatically:

• Checks your LinkedIn inbox and replies to messages in In English (Serbian also supported) with high-quality, human-feeling responses

• Relevant, high-quality and human-feeling posts

• Sends 7 to 8 personalized connection requests

• Tracks your connection count growth daily

• Prints a full session report

On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday it also:

• Asks you for a post idea (60 second window)

• Auto-generates and publishes a post in your voice if you don't respond

How it works

This project extends the linkedin-scraper-mcp package by adding two missing tools:

• create_post - publishes a post to your LinkedIn profile

• comment_on_post - leaves a comment on any LinkedIn post

These tools use browser automation (Patchright/Chromium) to interact with LinkedIn's UI directly.

Claude Code reads a prompt file (linkedin_daily.md) that contains detailed instructions for the daily automation. Windows Task Scheduler fires the bat file at 2pm every day.

Requirements

• Windows PC (always on during automation time)

• Claude Code installed

• UV installed

• Claude Pro or API access

Setup

1. Install UV

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"

2. Clone and install the custom MCP

git clone https://github.com/dzigi00/linkedin-claude-automation C:\Users\<you>\linkedin-mcp-custom
cd C:\Users\<you>\linkedin-mcp-custom
uv sync

3. Login to LinkedIn

uv run -m linkedin_mcp_server --login

A browser opens. Log in to your LinkedIn account. Session is saved automatically.

4. Register the MCP with Claude Code

claude mcp add linkedin -s user -- "C:\Users\<you>\.local\bin\uv.exe" "--directory" "C:\Users\<you>\linkedin-mcp-custom" "run" "-m" "linkedin_mcp_server" "--transport" "stdio"

5. Copy the automation files

Copy linkedin_daily.md and run_linkedin.bat to C:\Users\<you>\

Edit linkedin_daily.md to match your profile, niche, and content topics.

Edit run_linkedin.bat to replace the path with your actual username.

6. Schedule with Windows Task Scheduler

• Open Task Scheduler

• Create Basic Task

• Name: LinkedIn Daily

• Trigger: Daily at 2:00 PM

• Action: Start a program

• Program: C:\Users\<you>\run_linkedin.bat

• Start in: C:\Users\<you>

7. Customize for your profile

Before running the automation, open linkedin_daily.md and update these sections to match your own profile:

• Your story - replace the mechanic to funnel builder background with your own journey

• Content pillars - replace the listed topics with your own niche and expertise

• Target audience - update the countries, job titles, and industries you want to connect with

• Brands and clients - replace AICom, EcomDegree, Publishing.com with your own work history

• Location exclusions - update or remove the North Macedonia exclusion based on your situation

• Voice and tone - the casual, direct style works for most people but adjust if needed

The linkedin_daily.md file is the brain of the automation. Everything Claude does daily is driven by the instructions in that file. Spend 10 minutes personalizing it before your first run.

8. Fix: Auto-trust the working directory

By default Claude Code asks "Do you trust this folder?" every first run. To skip this permanently, run this once in PowerShell:

$json = Get-Content "C:\Users\<you>\.claude.json" -Raw | ConvertFrom-Json
$json.projects."C:\Users\<you>".hasTrustDialogAccepted = $true
$json | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 100 | Set-Content "C:\Users\<you>\.claude.json" -Encoding utf8

Replace <you> with your actual Windows username.
