Behavioral detection

LinkedIn's post-2024 enforcement approach: scoring how an account behaves — session origin, timing patterns, acceptance trends, browser-extension script injection — rather than just counting its actions.

This is why "stay under 100 a week" stopped being enough. Accounts inside the numeric caps get flagged for machine-like patterns: bulk actions at identical times, sessions from data-center IPs, injected scripts from extensions. It's also why enforcement escalated to vendors themselves — in March 2026 LinkedIn removed a major automation vendor's company page and its founders' profiles. Surviving 2026 means behaving like a person: randomized pacing, residential-quality sessions, human-shaped working hours.

LinkedBoost is the LinkedIn MCP for Claude — agent-run outreach with enforced limits and a human trigger on every send. See how it works →
