Claude Code now controls my browser, and it's a gamechanger. It scraped all my LinkedIn posts (70+) to create a Spotify-style Wrapped.
Because the extension works with your existing logins, you don't need an API for every website or custom scripting. Many websites also restrict scraping or don't have official APIs. LinkedIn being one of them. So Claude for Chrome lets you circumvent that.
While you can use this extension directly from the side panel in your browser, it becomes even more powerful when integrated with Claude Code, as I did here.
I asked Claude to go to my LinkedIn profile, scroll through my entire 2025 activity, and extract every original post I wrote this year.
It opened Chrome. Navigated to LinkedIn. Started scrolling. Kept going until it hit posts from January. Then it pulled the content from 100+ posts. Cleaned the data. Removed reposts.
I then prompted it to analyze my writings and create the year-end wrap. It built the Spotify Wrapped-style HTML page, complete with my 'writing personality', my top content genres, my boldest hot takes of the year, posting rhythm calendar, etc.
The whole thing took about 30 minutes. It is still a little slow, and the token usage is pretty high. But it is intelligent enough to handle end-to-end browser-based automations. And when used with Claude Code, if you are building something, it can confirm everything works by testing directly in your browser.
