Connect LinkedIn to Cursor

• Catch you up

  Ask what you missed and Cursor reads your unread LinkedIn chats, then gives you the short version: who needs an answer, what was decided, what can wait.

  get_messages_to_summarize

• Find any message

  The address someone sent last month, the price a client agreed to, the link from a group chat. Cursor searches your LinkedIn history and quotes the message.

  search_messages

• Draft replies

  Cursor writes the reply in your tone, in the chat's language, with the context of the whole thread. You read it, edit it, and send it.

  draft_reply

• Send with your OK

  When you approve a draft, ConnectChats sends it from your own LinkedIn account and confirms delivery. Auto-send only runs in chats where you switch it on.

1. 1

   Add ConnectChats to Cursor

   • Open ~/.cursor/mcp.json to use ConnectChats in every project, or .cursor/mcp.json for one project.
   • Add this entry and save: { "mcpServers": { "connectchats": { "url": "https://api.connectchats.com/mcp" } } }
   • Open Customize in the sidebar, find connectchats and sign in when Cursor asks. Use your passkey on the ConnectChats page.
   • In the agent chat, ask about your messages.
2. 2

   Link your LinkedIn account

   • Open https://connectchats.com/app and choose Link a chat app, then LinkedIn.
   • Sign in to linkedin.com in your browser, then copy the session cookies ConnectChats asks for, following the guide on screen.
   • ConnectChats checks the session and lists your conversations.
   • If LinkedIn signs you out, link it again the same way.
3. 3

   Pick the chats Cursor can see

   Every chat is listed in your ConnectChats dashboard. Share all of them or only the ones you choose. Cursor never sees the rest.

4. 4

   Ask Cursor about your LinkedIn

   Open a new conversation in Cursor and ask about your chats. Cursor calls ConnectChats when it needs your messages.

• LinkedIn in ConnectChats

  Your LinkedIn inbox is supported: one to one messages, group conversations and InMail you receive. Posts, comments and connection requests are not included, only messages. Each linked chat starts with its last 200 messages, then every new message arrives as it is sent. Sales Navigator and Recruiter inboxes are separate products and are not included.

• ConnectChats in Cursor

  Cursor reads MCP servers from an mcp.json file and supports OAuth sign-in for remote servers. Add ConnectChats once and its agent can look up messages while you work, such as the bug report a teammate sent you on WhatsApp. Cursor signs in with OAuth and renews the token on its own, so you sign in once. You can switch ConnectChats off in Customize without removing it from mcp.json. Cloud Agents keep their own sign-in, separate from the desktop app. Team admins can limit which MCP servers members can use with an allowlist.

• You pick the chats

  Cursor only sees the LinkedIn chats you share. Unshare a chat and it disappears from every AI app at once.

• Drafts by default

  Cursor prepares replies. You approve each one before it reaches LinkedIn, unless you turn on auto-send for that chat.

• Stored messages are encrypted

  Stored messages are encrypted with a key that only your passkey can unlock. We never train models on your messages.
