Leadshark Apex

LeadShark Apex is a hosted, remote MCP server for LinkedIn automation. Connect it to Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT or any MCP client and let your agent run comment-to-DM automations, publish lead magnets, work your Leadbox inbox, schedule posts and read your analytics, all inside your own LinkedIn activity limits.

• Endpoint: https://apex.leadshark.io/mcp
• Transport: Streamable HTTP
• Auth: OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration (PKCE S256)
• Scopes: mcp:read, mcp:write
• MCP Registry name: io.leadshark/apex
• Website: https://www.leadshark.io
• Docs: https://www.leadshark.io/linkedin-mcp-server

There is nothing to install or self-host. This repository holds the public listing metadata (server.json, mcp.json) and docs for the hosted server.

What you can do

• Comment-to-DM automations: create, edit, pause and inspect automations that reply to comments with a keyword and send the DM.
• Lead magnets: publish lead-magnet links and LeadShark Pages, and pull the leads they capture.
• Leadbox inbox: read your DM threads, get the full context with one person, and reply.
• Posts: schedule posts with an automation attached, edit or move them, and comment or react as yourself or as a Company Page.
• Prospecting and analytics: search people and posts, enrich profiles and companies, see who engaged with a post, and track engagement on your recent posts.
• Safety: check and set your activity limits before acting. Every write action is logged so your agent can audit what it did.

Connect

When you add the server, your client opens a LeadShark sign-in page. Approve access and you are connected. No API key to copy.

Claude (claude.ai and Claude Desktop)

1. Open Settings, then Connectors.
2. Click Add custom connector.
3. Name it LeadShark Apex and paste https://apex.leadshark.io/mcp as the URL.
4. Click Connect and sign in to LeadShark.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http leadshark-apex https://apex.leadshark.io/mcp

Then run /mcp inside Claude Code and choose Authenticate.

Cursor

Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (project):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "leadshark-apex": {
      "url": "https://apex.leadshark.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Open Cursor Settings, then MCP, and click Login next to leadshark-apex.

ChatGPT

2. Back in Apps & Connectors, click Create.
3. Name it LeadShark Apex, paste https://apex.leadshark.io/mcp as the MCP server URL, and choose OAuth for authentication.
4. Click Create and sign in to LeadShark.

Any other MCP client

Most clients that support remote servers accept the same mcp.json shape:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "leadshark-apex": {
      "url": "https://apex.leadshark.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Clients that only speak stdio can bridge with mcp-remote:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "leadshark-apex": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://apex.leadshark.io/mcp"]
    }
  }
}
