Claude skills for LinkedIn. 12 Claude Code and Codex skills that write LinkedIn posts, comments, and replies in your voice. They draft content, strip AI tells, and wait for your approval before anything gets published. No coding required.

On another platform too? The same team ships matching marketing skill bundles for X (Twitter) · Instagram · YouTube · TikTok · Threads · Facebook. Same voice engine, same approve-before-publish flow.

Install

Pick whichever way you use Claude Code or Codex:

Codex CLI

codex plugin marketplace add sergebulaev/linkedin-skills
codex plugin add linkedin-skills@linkedin-skills

To test a local clone before publishing changes:

git clone https://github.com/sergebulaev/linkedin-skills.git
cd linkedin-skills
codex plugin marketplace add .
codex plugin add linkedin-skills@linkedin-skills

claude.ai (web)

1. Open claude.ai and click Customize in the sidebar
2. Open the Plugins tab
3. Click Add
4. Choose Add marketplace → Add from a repository
5. Paste sergebulaev/linkedin-skills there and sync
6. Find the plugin under Discover, then click Add
7. Done. The skills activate automatically when you ask about LinkedIn.

Note: Skills/Plugins require a paid Claude plan (Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise) with code execution enabled.

Claude Desktop (Mac / Windows)

1. Open Claude Desktop
2. Click Customize in the left sidebar, then open the Plugins tab
3. Click the Add dropdown at the top right and choose Add marketplace
4. Select Add from a repository, paste sergebulaev/linkedin-skills, and sync
5. Switch to the Discover tab and find the plugin in the list
6. Click the + on the plugin card to install it
7. Switch back to Yours to confirm it is listed and enabled
8. Done. Start a new conversation and ask Claude to write a LinkedIn post.

The tab switch in steps 5 and 7 is the part that trips people: syncing a marketplace puts the plugin in the catalog (Discover), not in your installed list (Yours). The + in step 6 sits on the plugin card itself, not beside a section heading.

OpenClaw

1. Open your OpenClaw working directory
2. Clone the skills into it:

   git clone https://github.com/sergebulaev/linkedin-skills.git
   

3. In OpenClaw settings, add this to your system prompt:

   You have LinkedIn marketing skills in ./linkedin-skills/.
   For any LinkedIn task, read the relevant skills/*/SKILL.md first.
   Use lib/url_parser.py for URL parsing,
       lib/apify_client.py for reading posts / comments / engagers,
       lib/publora_client.py for publishing actions.
   

4. Done. Ask OpenClaw to write a LinkedIn post or comment.

Claude Code (CLI / VS Code / JetBrains)

/plugin marketplace add sergebulaev/linkedin-skills
/plugin install linkedin-skills@linkedin-skills

Or clone the repo and open it as your working directory — the skills activate with no plugin install, which is the route to use where /plugin is unavailable:

git clone https://github.com/sergebulaev/linkedin-skills.git
cd linkedin-skills

The repo ships a .claude/skills/ mirror of symlinks, so Claude Code finds all 12 skills on its own.

Hermes Agent

Hermes Agent (Nous Research) follows the agentskills.io open standard and loads skills/*/SKILL.md directly. Clone the bundle into your Hermes skills folder:

git clone https://github.com/sergebulaev/linkedin-skills.git ~/.hermes/skills/linkedin-skills

Coming from OpenClaw? hermes claw migrate imports these skills automatically. Then call /<skill-name> from any of your Hermes chat surfaces.

Any agent (skills CLI)

One command that works across Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and any other agent that reads SKILL.md files:

npx skills add sergebulaev/linkedin-skills

Found this useful? Star the repo. Curated Claude Code and Codex directories rank and gate by star count, so a star is what makes these skills findable for the next person. It is the only thing we ask. No signup, no email.

What you can do

Once installed, just ask Claude Code or Codex for help with LinkedIn. The right skill activates automatically.

Write a post:

"Write me a LinkedIn post about why AI agencies are replacing traditional ones. Make it viral."

Comment on someone's post:

"Comment on this post: https://linkedin.com/posts/... — I want to add a thoughtful take."

Check a draft before publishing:

"Audit this post draft for AI tells and algorithm issues: [paste your text]"

Reverse-engineer a viral post:

"What hook formula does this post use? https://linkedin.com/posts/..."

Plan your week:

"Create a 7-day LinkedIn content plan. I'm a B2B SaaS founder targeting VPs of Marketing."

Rewrite your profile:

"Optimize my LinkedIn profile for inbound leads: https://linkedin.com/in/yourname"

Remove AI tells from any text:

"Humanize this text: [paste AI-generated draft]"

Every skill shows you a draft first and waits for your OK before doing anything. Nothing gets posted without your approval.

The 12 skills

| Skill | What it does | |---|---| | Post Writer | Drafts viral-ready posts using 20 proven 2026 hook formulas (anaphora, R.I.P. obituary, year-over-year pivot, curiosity gap, emotional cold-open, controlled A/B, false-binary, and 13 more) plus a founders-edition angle library, picked by engagement goal | | Comment Drafter | Drafts a comment on any LinkedIn post from its URL | | Reply Handler | Drafts a reply to any comment, correctly handling LinkedIn's 2-level thread flattening. Or give it just a post URL and it sweeps the whole thread — every top-level comment and reply — filters out low-value ones, and drafts the rest in one batch | | Post Audit | Checks your draft against 2026 algorithm rules and AI-detection patterns before you publish | | Humanizer | Removes the AI tells human readers and LinkedIn's slop filter react to: 2026 AI vocabulary scored by paragraph density, reveal bridges, staccato fragment stacks, stacked triads, performed sincerity; caps em dashes instead of banning them. Does not promise to beat detectors (no edit reliably does). Bundles three sub-tools: AI-emoji density scorer, multi-detector spread tester (GPTZero, Originality.ai, ZeroGPT, Sapling, Copyleaks) that documents how much they disagree, and a rule-explainer reference for defending stylistic choices. | | Hook Extractor | Reverse-engineers the hook formula from any viral post. Returns a blank template you can fill with your own topic | | Content Planner | Creates a 7-day plan with daily post topics, formats, hooks, posting times, and comment targets | | Engagement Monitor | Two read-side workflows: (1) tracks your comment threads for author replies and drafts follow-ups in the 6-24h window; (2) pulls likers and commenters on any post and groups them by ICP fit (peer / aspirational / prospect). | | Profile Optimizer | Rewrites your headline, About section, Featured section, and Experience for 2026 conversion patterns | | Employee Advocacy | Plans a team LinkedIn program: 14-day launch, posting cadence, brand governance, ROI tracking | | Repurposer | Turns content from another platform (tweet, thread, YouTube video, blog, newsletter) into a native LinkedIn post: re-hooks for the fold, expands to the 900-1300 char sweet spot, moves links to the first comment, runs the humanizer | | Interviewer | Interviews you and keeps the answers in a Story Bank: roles, receipts with real numbers, turning points, scars, positions you would defend. Every other skill reads it, so drafts stop asking you for a specific number mid-request. Also runs a focused interview that turns one topic into a post spine. The only skill that works when you have never posted before, since it needs a career rather than an archive |

Built for founders

If you are a founder, the bundle ships a dedicated founder layer. Your real constraint is rarely reach. It is a small number of high-stakes readers: the next investor, the next hire, the design partner who becomes a case study. The founder layer optimizes for trust with that narrow audience instead of impressions.

• 10 founder angles (references/founder-topics.md) as fill-in templates: reprice the category, content-to-pipeline, audience of one, the scarce-shots math, the unglamorous bet, the limit of delegation, designed serendipity, the evasive-sentence test, the delegation line, the learning gate. Each maps to an engagement goal and a hook formula.
• 4 structural hook formulas (F17-F20) that shape a post's logic: controlled A/B anecdote, false-binary dissolve, anecdote-meets-evidence bridge, diverging-curves close.
• A founders-edition content plan (Conviction / Building in public / The math / Proof) in the Content Planner.

Just tell the Post Writer you are a founder, or ask the Content Planner for a "founder plan," and the skills reach for these first.

Community skills

Standalone skills built by other people on this bundle's conventions (same voice rules, same approval-card flow, same Not for X (use Y) disambiguation). They live in their authors' repos, so the core stays at 12 skills and one read/write pipeline. Install them next to this bundle the same way.

• linkedin-outreach by @smfardeen7 - drafts 300-character connection-request notes (10 scenario templates) and post-accept follow-up sequences with day offsets and stop rules. Draft-only: LinkedIn has no invite or DM API, you paste and send.

Optional: read LinkedIn data with Apify

Four of the skills (Comment Drafter, Reply Handler, Hook Extractor, Engagement Monitor) can read post bodies, comment threads, your own recent comments, and the people who liked or commented on any post. Without an Apify token they fall back to asking you to paste the relevant text. With one, they fetch automatically.

Apify free tier ships with $5/month of credit, which goes a long way at $1-$5 per 1,000 results. The skills use four no-cookies actors:

| Use case | Actor | Cost | |---|---|---| | Post body by URL | supreme_coder/linkedin-post | $1 / 1,000 | | Comments + replies on a post | apimaestro/linkedin-post-comments-replies-engagements-scraper-no-cookies | $5 / 1,000 | | Your own recent comments | apimaestro/linkedin-profile-comments | $5 / 1,000 | | Likers + comme
