Engineered for Performance & Agents

Built upon the SpaceCorps high-performance CLI tenets with zero runtime bloat.

🚀

Native Speed (1–3 ms)

Compiled to a single standalone static binary with Rust 2024 edition, fat LTO, and zero interpreter overhead. Perfect for high-frequency agent tool loops.

📄

YAML First, JSON on Demand

Outputs clean, human-readable YAML by default for terminal review. Pass --json for deterministic jq pipelines and autonomous LLM tool calling.

🔐

Native OS Keystore Integration

Tokens are never stored in plaintext disk files. Integrates directly with macOS Keychain, Windows DPAPI, and Linux Secret Service daemons.

🎯

Selective Section Filtering

Fetch only the sections you need with --include experiences,skills,educations, slashing token usage and response payload sizes.

👥

Multi-Account Management

Switch between multiple Apify accounts safely with --account <name>. Never accidentally query using the wrong organization key.

🤖

Self-Documenting Agent Card

Autonomous agents can run linkedin agent-readme [--json] to inspect the full tool manual, schema rules, and error exit codes without network roundtrips.
