Hey, did you use the .dxt from the Releases tab?

[Luan1Schons]

Hello, thanks for getting back to me! Yes, it is active on Claude.

My claude config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "linkedin-scraper": {
      "command": "/home/luan/.local/bin/uv",
      "args": [
        "--directory",
        "/home/luan/.config/Claude/Claude Extensions/local.dxt.daniel-sticker.linkedin-mcp-server/",
        "run",
        "main.py",
        "--no-setup"
      ],
      "disabled": false,
      "requiredTools": [
        "get_person_profile",
        "get_company_profile",
        "get_job_details",
        "search_jobs"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CHROMEDRIVER": "/usr/bin/chromedriver"
      }
    }
  }
}

The issue is that the login is failing. This can be due to multiple reasons:

• linkedin sends captcha after login (happens after lots of logins, trying different scrapers, vpn use etc.)
• linkedin sends 2fa confirmation to mobile app (if you approve quickly before timeout it should work)
• wrong password / email combination

You can try the local setup and run the mcp server with the --no-headless flag to see the automated browser window open. I plan on adding better debugging (screenshot of automated window if login fails) in the future...

Also pull the newest Docker image docker pull stickerdaniel/linkedin-mcp-server:latest
