LinkedIn Search Skill
Search live job listings from LinkedIn's public job board for any country/region
(and remote). No authentication, no API key, and zero runtime dependencies — it runs
with just bun. The location is always passed explicitly, so the same skill works for a
forker in any market out of the box.
This is a country-agnostic worked example of the repo's job-portal-skill pattern.
LinkedIn's jobs-guest endpoints are global and the HTML parsing is country-independent;
only the --location you pass changes per market.
⚠️ Personal use only
This uses LinkedIn's public job pages; automated access is against LinkedIn's Terms of
Service, so keep volume low and don't use it commercially or for bulk data collection.
Run it on your own responsibility.
When to use this skill
- Search for job openings in a given location (any country/city) or remotely
- Filter by recency (posted today / last 7 / 14 / 30 days) or workplace type (remote/hybrid/onsite)
- Get the full description of a specific job listing
Commands
Search job listings
bun run skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts search --location "<place>" [flags]
Key flags:
--location <text> / -l <text> — required. A LinkedIn place string, e.g. "Mumbai, Maharashtra, India", "Berlin, Germany", "London, United Kingdom", or "Remote".--query <text> / -q <text> — keyword search (title, skill, role). Recommended.--jobage <days> — posted within N days: 1, 7, 14, 30. Omit for all postings.--remote <mode> — remote, hybrid, or onsite (workplace-type filter).--page <n> — page number (1-indexed, 10 results per page).--limit <n> / -n <n> — cap total results emitted (client-side).--format json|table|plain — default json.
Fetch full job detail
bun run skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts detail <id|url> [--format json|plain]
id is the job ID from search results (e.g. 4426311357). You may also pass a full
LinkedIn jobs/view/... URL or a urn:li:jobPosting:... URN. Returns the full description,
seniority, employment type, job function, industries, and apply link.
Usage examples
# Data engineer roles in Bengaluru, last 30 days
bun run skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts search -q "data engineer" -l "Bengaluru, Karnataka, India" --jobage 30 --format table
# Product manager roles in Berlin, remote
bun run skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts search -q "product manager" -l "Berlin, Germany" --remote remote --format table
# Any role, fully remote
bun run skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts search -q "paralegal" -l "Remote" --format table
# Full details for a specific job
bun run skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts detail 4426311357 --format plain

Notes
- Data is from LinkedIn's public
jobs-guest endpoints — no credentials required.
- Page size is fixed at 10 results per page.
- LinkedIn may rate-limit; the CLI retries 429/5xx with exponential backoff. Keep volume low (see ToS note above).
- Job IDs are numeric (e.g.
4426311357) — pass them as-is to detail.
