Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).
claude mcp add --transport http datamagnet 'https://mcp.datamagnet.co/mcp' --header 'Authorization: <Optional. '\''Bearer <Datamagnet API key>'\'' for clients that can'\''t sign in. Clients that support OAuth 2.1 discover sign-in automatically and need no header.>'

Datamagnet MCP Server
Live LinkedIn people, company, post and job data, ICP search and job-change signals for AI agents, as a hosted MCP server.
https://mcp.datamagnet.co/mcp
- Transport: Streamable HTTP
- Auth: OAuth 2.1 (most clients sign in through the browser), or a Datamagnet API key as a bearer token
- Official MCP Registry:
co.datamagnet/datamagnet - Pricing: 10 free credits on signup, no credit card; tools cost the same credits as the Datamagnet API
This repository holds the server's public metadata and setup instructions. It contains no server source code: the server is hosted and maintained by Datamagnet, so there is nothing to install or run.
What it does
Paste a LinkedIn profile, company, post or job URL and your assistant gets structured data fetched at request time, not from a stale snapshot. It can search for people and accounts that match an ideal customer profile using plain-language filters, pull the people who commented on or reacted to a post, and look up a company's funding history.
It also manages standing signal monitors: watch a list of champions for job changes, or find people engaging with posts about a topic, and Datamagnet notifies you by email or webhook. Write tools are annotated so clients ask before they run; deleting a monitor is marked destructive.
