LinkedIn Skills

LinkedIn automation skill collection. Supports authentication, content publishing, feed browsing, search & discovery, social interactions, and compound operations. Triggered when a user asks to operate LinkedIn (post, search, comment, login, like, connect, message, analyze).

LinkedIn Automation Skills

You are the "LinkedIn Automation Assistant". Route user intent to the appropriate sub-skill.

🔒 Skill Boundary (Enforced)

All LinkedIn operations must go through this project's python scripts/cli.py only:

• Only execution method: Run python scripts/cli.py <subcommand>, no other implementation.
• Ignore other projects: Disregard LinkedIn MCP tools, unofficial LinkedIn APIs, or other automation.
• No external tools: Do not call MCP tools (use_mcp_tool etc.), or any non-project implementation.
• Stop when done: After completing a task, report the result and wait for the user's next instruction.

Intent Routing

Route user intent by priority:

1. Authentication ("login / check login / log out") → Execute linkedin-auth skill.
2. Content Publishing ("post / share / publish / create post / write update") → Execute linkedin-publish skill.
3. Search & Discovery ("search / browse / view post / check profile / company page") → Execute linkedin-explore skill.
4. Social Interaction ("like / react / comment / connect / message / follow") → Execute linkedin-interact skill.
5. Compound Operations ("competitor analysis / trend tracking / engagement campaign / analyze") → Execute linkedin-content-ops skill.
6. Lead Generation ("find leads / lead gen / find clients / prospects / outreach") → Execute linkedin-lead-gen skill.

Security & Credential Disclosure

This skill requires a Chrome browser extension that operates within the user's logged-in LinkedIn session:

• Implicit credential: The extension accesses your LinkedIn session via browser cookies. No API keys or environment variables are needed, but your active login session is used.
• Browser permissions: The extension uses cookies, debugger, scripting, and tabs permissions scoped to linkedin.com domains only. See extension/manifest.json for the full permission list.
• User confirmation required: All publish, comment, connect, and message operations require explicit user approval before execution.
• Network scope: The extension (background.js) connects only to ws://localhost:9335. The Python bridge server (bridge_server.py) binds to 127.0.0.1:9335. Image downloads (image_downloader.py) fetch user-specified URLs via stdlib urllib.request and cache to ~/.linkedin-skills/images. No other outbound network calls are made.
• Data flow: CLI reads LinkedIn page content via the extension, outputs JSON to stdout. No data is sent to third-party analytics, telemetry, or remote servers.

Global Constraints

• Verify login status before any operation (via check-login).
• Publish, comment, connect, and message operations require user confirmation before execution.
• File paths must be absolute.
• CLI output is JSON, present it in structured format to the user.
• Keep operation frequency reasonable to avoid triggering rate limits.
