LinkedIn Bulk Connect

What this skill does

Send LinkedIn connection requests to a list of people via browser automation and track status in a CSV/TSV file. Use when the user wants to bulk-connect with a list of people on LinkedIn (founders, speakers, leads, etc.) from a spreadsheet or list containing LinkedIn profile URLs. Handles Connect button, Follow-mode profiles, already-connected detection, stale URL fallback via LinkedIn search and Google search, and incremental status tracking.
