Founder open-sources LinkedIn prospect research tool as a Claude Code plugin
A startup founder open-sourced a Claude Code plugin that automates the research half of LinkedIn outreach: scraping posts, profiles, and comment threads into local SQLite via Apify, classifying what prospects post about, and mining comment threads for people describing the founder's problem. The author moved away from mass automated messaging via Apollo and Clay after poor conversion, finding manually written, better-targeted messages raised reply rates — with research time as the remaining bottleneck. The tool targets that bottleneck without automating message sending.
