Commands

Analyze

Analyze your connections and see statistics:

cargo run --release -- analyze --input data/Connections.csv

Output:

• Total connections
• Relevant connections (matching keywords)
• Unwanted connections
• Ghost connections (deactivated accounts)

Export

Export filtered connections to a new CSV:

cargo run --release -- export --input data/Connections.csv --output output/unwanted.csv

This creates a CSV with connections that don't match your filter keywords.

Remove (Experimental)

⚠️ Not recommended - violates LinkedIn TOS

cargo run --release -- remove --input data/Connections.csv --email "your@email.com" --password "password"

Instead, we recommend:

1. Use the export command
2. Review the exported CSV
3. Remove connections manually via LinkedIn
