TL;DR: A LinkedIn outreach pipeline is a background worker that signs in with your own session, opens profiles, sends connection requests and messages on a schedule you control, and can post content straight to your feed. The hard was staying invisible to LinkedIn's detection. We got to our nineteenth build in about two weeks. Along the way, the session kept dying after three profiles (a device fingerprint mismatch), the stealth layer turned out to be detectable on its own, an authenticated proxy refused to connect, and Chrome froze in ways no timeout caught. This is every failure and the fix that finally held.
We built a LinkedIn marketing pipeline inside Ozigi because our own go-to-market runs on it. I didn't just want it to be another tool; I needed it to send real messages to real people without getting my personal account flagged.
The very first version we built worked for sourcing and reaching three leads, then the session died. The second version got past that and froze instead. This pattern repeated for two weeks and led us from building v1 of our LinkedIn worker to the current version 26.
This article is like a cleaned-up version of our build log for educational purposes.
If you are trying to reach people on LinkedIn from code, you will hit most of these walls in roughly this order. I will name the exact failure each time, because "it stopped working" helped me precisely never.
