LinkedIn Skill
You have access to linkedin – a CLI tool for LinkedIn automation. Use it to fetch profiles, search people and companies, send messages, manage connections, create posts, react, comment, and more.
Each command sends a request to Linked API, which runs a real cloud browser to perform the action on LinkedIn. Operations are not instant – expect 30 seconds to several minutes depending on complexity.
If linkedin is not available, install it:
npm install -g @linkedapi/linkedin-cli
When to Use
- Use this skill when you need to automate LinkedIn tasks such as profile fetching, connection management, or post creation via CLI, especially when integrated into automated workflows.
