LinkedIn URL to Contact Card (to save in your contacts)

Turn a LinkedIn person profile URL into a full contact card (name, title, company, work email, mobile) via Clay, then generate a downloadable .vcf the user can add to their contacts.

Input

• Required: a LinkedIn person URL (https://www.linkedin.com/in/...).
• Reject company pages, search URLs, or non-LinkedIn links; ask for a person profile URL instead.
• One URL per run unless the user explicitly asks for a small batch.

Prerequisites

1. Confirm Clay is connected: GetMcpServerStatus for user-Clay.
2. If needsAuth or tools fail with auth errors, call AuthenticateMcpServer for user-Clay with account default (unless the user named another) and wait for the connect card.
3. Call GetDynamicTools on namespace user-Clay and follow live schemas.

Steps

1. Enrich contact details (email + mobile)

1. Normalize the URL (trim; prefer https://www.linkedin.com/in/<slug>).
2. Call list_subroutines on user-Clay. Pick the best function that takes a LinkedIn URL and returns work email and/or mobile. Prefer workspace functions named like Enrich Work Email & Phone, Enrich Contact, Get Phone Number, or Mobile Phone Number. Confirm required input key names from the listing.
3. Call run_subroutine_direct with:
   • subroutine_id from the listing
   • inputs: a single-element array whose keys match that subroutine’s input names (often Linkedin URL or similar — never guess; use the listed names)
4. If one subroutine only covers email or only phone, run a second run_subroutine_direct for the missing field.
5. Poll get-task-context (fallback get-task) with the returned taskId until enrichments are complete. Retry while state is in-progress. Never claim a field is missing without checking get-task-context.

2. Enrich profile fields (name, title, company)

Contact-detail subroutines often return email/phone only. Also fetch profile context:

1. Prefer fields already present on the enrichment task (get-task-context).
2. If name/title/company are missing, resolve the person with Clay search tools (e.g. find-and-enrich-list-of-contacts with name + company domain once known, or another profile subroutine that accepts the LinkedIn URL). Poll get-task-context again.
3. Required card fields to collect:
   • Name (FN / N)
   • Title (TITLE)
   • Company (ORG)
   • Work Email (EMAIL;TYPE=WORK)
   • Mobile (TEL;TYPE=CELL)
4. Never invent any of these. Leave a field blank in the VCF if Clay did not return it; tell the user which fields were missing.

3. Generate a VCF and deliver it

1. Write a vCard 3.0 file under /workspace named from the person, e.g. Kieran_Flanagan.vcf (sanitize spaces to underscores; ASCII-safe filename).
2. Use this shape (omit lines for fields that are truly empty):

BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
N:Last;First;;;
FN:Full Name
TITLE:Job Title
ORG:Company
EMAIL;TYPE=INTERNET,WORK:work@example.com
TEL;TYPE=CELL:+15551234567
URL:https://www.linkedin.com/in/slug/
END:VCARD

3. Split FN into N as Last;First;;; when the name is two+ parts (last token = family name; remainder = given name). If only one token, use N:Name;;;; and the same for FN.
4. Escape commas/semicolons/newlines in vCard values per vCard 3.0 (\\, \,, \;).
5. Send the user:
   • A short contact summary in chat (Name, Title, Company, Work Email, Mobile, LinkedIn)
   • The .vcf as a file attachment (SendToUser type attachment with the file:// or box path)
6. Mention they can open/download the VCF to add it to Contacts.

Guardrails

• Enrichments cost Clay credits; do not batch large URL lists without an explicit ask.
• Do not push results into CRM, Slack, or email unless the user asks.
• Do not scrape LinkedIn in the browser for email/phone; Clay is the source of truth.
• If Clay is unavailable and the user declines connecting it, stop and say what you need.
• Always produce the VCF when at least name + one of email/phone is available; still attach a partial card and note missing fields.

Alternative path (no matching subroutine)

If no suitable subroutine exists, fall back to Clay search tools: resolve the person via find-and-enrich-list-of-contacts (needs name + company domain) or an equivalent search, then add-contact-data-points with { type: \"Email\" } and a Custom data point for mobile only if Email alone does not return phone. Prefer subroutines when the user already gave a LinkedIn URL.
