Build lead databases in Cline

The `search_contacts` tool lets Cline build complete lead databases from inside your IDE. Tell the agent to build a lead list, and it will run the query to find prospects matching your criteria, then write them straight to a local JSON file. No manual data entry is required. Cline handles the entire file creation process, using the Lusha MCP Server to populate real-time contact details while you watch the workspace update.

Enrich local datasets with a single prompt

The `find_company` tool allows Cline to read raw domains and gather missing corporate context. It maps out corporate headcounts, industries, and locations without you leaving VS Code. For missing executive details, the agent triggers `find_person` to append names and direct emails. It updates your local files directly, saving you hours of manual spreadsheet work.

Map LinkedIn URLs to clean contact files

The `find_by_linkedin` tool maps social profile URLs to clean contact files directly inside Cline. The agent uses the tool via the active MCP transport to look up the direct contact details associated with those profiles, bypassing the need for manual browser extensions. Because Cline has full file-system access, it can immediately format these contacts into a CSV or database seed script. You get clean, verified data ready for your next outreach campaign.
