This skill automates LinkedIn lead generation and outreach with Free and Pro tiers. It handles secure login, targeted user search, batch connection requests, automated follow-ups, and exports lead reports. The tool is designed to save time and scale outreach while encouraging responsible use.
The skill authenticates into LinkedIn (supports session reuse) and performs searches by keywords, location, company, and title to collect target URNs. It can send personalized connection requests in batches, schedule follow-up messages after a configurable delay, and export activity and lead data as CSV or JSON. Configuration is stored locally and credentials can be provided via environment variables for auto-login.
What limits are in the Free tier?
Free tier allows 10 connection requests per month; follow-ups and analytics are limited. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited actions.
How do I avoid account restrictions?
Follow LinkedIn rules: limit daily requests, personalize messages, reuse sessions, and avoid aggressive repeat automation.
What export formats are supported?
Lead and activity reports can be exported as CSV or JSON for easy import into CRMs and analytics tools.
