LeadShark MCP

Overview

The LeadShark MCP (Model Context Protocol) server lets AI assistants like Cursor, Claude, and ChatGPT manage your entire automation workflow through conversation.

What You Can Say

Talk to your AI assistant naturally. It figures out which tool to use.

Tools (35)

Complete automation control. Each tool does one thing well.

marks an Apex-only tool. Everything else is available on Pro+ and Apex.

The core “Act” arm of the agent loadout — engage as yourself with the posts and people you surface anywhere across the toolkit: discover_lead_magnets and list_signals, your own feed, get_person_activity (the posts someone's recently been commenting on and reacting to), list_post_engagers (everyone who engaged a given post), list_person_posts / list_recent_posts, or search. Use comment_on_post / react_to_post with a post's post_id, and send_connection_request to invite a person to connect. Go further into conversations with send_message (DMs, or InMail a non-connection with as_inmail) and engage_with_comment (reply to or like a comment), and read what's happening with list_recent_messages, get_messages_with_person, feed (your own home feed), and get_lead_activity (a lead's full history with you). Acting as yourself is Apex; the Company-Page equivalents below stay Pro+.

Act as a LinkedIn Company Page you administer. Start with list_companies to get the page's id, then pass it as organization_id to the other tools (including schedule_post_with_automation). You must be an admin of the page on your connected LinkedIn account.

The SEE and DECIDE half of the agent loop. search finds ICP-fit people or companies on LinkedIn by keyword and degree (proactive prospecting); list_person_posts pulls a person's recent posts so you have something concrete to act on (closing the loop into comment_on_post / react_to_post); get_person_activity surfaces a person's recent comments and reactions — the sharpest intent signal, available nowhere else; list_post_engagers turns any post into a deduped, warmest-first lead list of who commented, reacted, or reposted it; discover_lead_magnets pulls fresh, prospect-rich posts from the LeadShark radar to engage; list_signals returns your heat-scored hot leads; enrich and enrich_company turn a person or company into a structured profile so your agent can rank fit and intent itself. Feed them into the act tools (comment_on_post, send_connection_request, create_automation). All require Apex.
