A fenced bash/python block in SKILL.md carries a natural-language imperative — "now run this", "execute the following command" — directing the agent to execute the fenced content. What looks like documentation becomes an executable payload the agent may run without ever asking you.

The primary manifest — the file an agent reads to learn what this artifact does.
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets Claude Code post to LinkedIn, manage drafts, schedule posts, comment, react, and more — all from your terminal.

cd ~/linkedin-mcp-server
npm install
npm run buildOpen your Claude Code settings and add the MCP server. You can do this by running:
claude mcp add linkedin -- node /path/to/linkedin-mcp-server/dist/index.jsOr manually add to your Claude Code settings (~/.claude.json or via the Claude Code UI):
{
"mcpServers": {
"linkedin": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/full/path/to/linkedin-mcp-server/dist/index.js"],
"env": {
"LINKEDIN_CLIENT_ID": "your_client_id_here",
"LINKEDIN_CLIENT_SECRET": "your_client_secret_here"
}
}
}
}Replace /full/path/to/ with the actual path where you cloned the repo.
Restart Claude Code, then say:
"authenticate with linkedin"
Claude will call linkedin_auth, which opens a browser window for OAuth. Authorize, and you're done. Token is stored locally at ~/.linkedin-mcp-tokens.json (file permissions: 600).
Just talk to Claude naturally:
Every action that touches LinkedIn requires you to confirm with a keyword. Nothing gets published without your explicit "POST IT".
~/.linkedin-mcp/data.db~/.linkedin-mcp/config.json (scopes, API tier)~/.linkedin-mcp-tokens.json (auto-expires)The server auto-creates ~/.linkedin-mcp/config.json on first run:
{
"scopes": ["openid", "profile", "w_member_social"],
"api_tier": "consumer"
}If you have Community Management API access, change api_tier to "community_management" to unlock comment and reaction tools beyond your own posts.
