Multi-account¶

Manage multiple LinkedIn accounts from one installation — useful for personal + company pages, agency work, or managing clients.

Setup¶

linkedin-mcp-install account add
# Prompts for: account name, cookies (or launch browser)

This creates a new account entry in ~/.linkedin-mcp/profile/accounts/.

Listing accounts¶

linkedin-mcp-install account list

Output:

NAME          COOKIES  STATUS    LAST USED
personal      ✓        active    2 min ago
company       ✓        active    1 hour ago
client-acme   ✓        paused    3 days ago

Switching accounts¶

Per-action (recommended)¶

linkedin-mcp-schedule add --draft-id 123 --account company

Default account¶

linkedin-mcp-install account default personal

The default is used when --account is omitted.

In the dashboard¶

Sidebar footer → account switcher dropdown.

Per-account config¶

Each account has its own:

Setting	Where
Cookies	`~/.linkedin-mcp/profile/accounts/{name}/cookies.json`
Drafts	`~/.linkedin-mcp/profile/accounts/{name}/drafts/`
Schedules	`~/.linkedin-mcp/profile/accounts/{name}/schedules/`
Templates	Shared (templates are account-agnostic)
Safety caps	Per-account overrides possible
Persona (for AI drafts)	Per-account
Profile (for jobs module)	Per-account

Per-account safety¶

Each account has its own safety profile:

linkedin-mcp-safety set-caps --account personal \
    --posts-per-day 5 \
    --comments-per-day 30 \
    --likes-per-day 100 \
    --applications-per-day 25

This lets you run a personal account more cautiously than a company page.

Account isolation¶

LinkedIn cookies for one account are never used by another. The browser auto-picker uses the right cookies per account.

Pausing / resuming¶

Pause an account when you don't want automated activity:

linkedin-mcp-install account pause company
# All scheduled posts for "company" are queued, not fired
linkedin-mcp-install account resume company

Removing an account¶

linkedin-mcp-install account remove client-acme
# Prompts for confirmation
# Removes: cookies, drafts, schedules, profile
# Templates (shared) are kept

Warning

Removing an account is irreversible. Back up first:

tar czf client-acme-backup.tar.gz \
    ~/.linkedin-mcp/profile/accounts/client-acme/
