- Official MCP SDK — Uses
FastMCPwith@mcp.tool()decorators, not a custom protocol implementation - Async throughout — All sync LinkedIn API calls wrapped in
asyncio.to_thread()to avoid blocking - Layered architecture — Tools → Services → Client, with caching at the service layer
- AI is optional — Core LinkedIn features work without an Anthropic API key; AI enhances resume/cover letter generation
- Security hardened — Jinja2
SandboxedEnvironment, WeasyPrint SSRF protection, path traversal guards, credential redaction, input validation
