What problem does it solve? Financial researchers need to monitor professional market commentary and track finance job market trends on LinkedIn, but manual browsing is slow and LinkedIn offers no simple API for read-only access. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Feed Reading: Read posts from your LinkedIn home timeline with author, headline, text, reactions, and comments, exported as JSON, YAML, CSV, or Markdown. - Job Search: Search LinkedIn job listings with filters for location, experience level, job type, remote/hybrid, date posted, and company, with optional full descriptions. - Use Case: A portfolio analyst wants to gauge professional sentiment after an earnings release and check which hedge funds are hiring. The skill pulls the LinkedIn feed for analyst reactions and runs a filtered job search for companies like Citadel and Jane Street. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to check your LinkedIn feed for market commentary or search LinkedIn for quantitative analyst jobs in New York.

Frequently Asked Questions about linkedin-reader

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I read my LinkedIn feed from the command line?▼

Run opencli linkedin timeline with an optional --limit flag (default 20, max 100) after installing opencli globally via npm. Output includes author, headline, text, reactions, comments, and URL, and supports JSON, YAML, CSV, and Markdown formats.

How to search LinkedIn jobs with filters using opencli?▼

Use opencli linkedin search with a keyword plus flags like --location, --experience-level, --job-type, --remote, --company, and --date-posted. Add --details to fetch full job descriptions and apply URLs, and --limit to control result count up to 100.

Does this LinkedIn tool require API keys or credentials?▼

No API keys are needed. opencli reuses your existing Chrome browser session through the Browser Bridge extension, so you only need to be logged into linkedin.com in Chrome with the extension installed and enabled.

Can I post, comment, or message on LinkedIn with this skill?▼

No, this skill is strictly read-only. It does not support posting, liking, commenting, connecting, messaging, or applying to jobs. It only reads the home feed and searches job listings.

Why does opencli show Extension not connected or No session errors?▼

Extension not connected means the Browser Bridge Chrome extension is missing or disabled; install it from the opencli GitHub releases page. No session means you are not logged into linkedin.com in Chrome; log in and run opencli doctor to verify.

What are the limitations of reading LinkedIn via opencli?▼

The skill cannot view individual profiles, access messages or notifications, manage connections, or search posts and people. It requires Chrome with a single active browser profile and works on CLI-based agents, not Claude.ai.
