linkedin-mcp-server: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/2-repro-issue/SKILL.md

2-repro-issue is a skill for Claude Code from stickerdaniel/linkedin-mcp-server. It costs 28 tokens per session (2,180 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A procedure for reproducing one LinkedIn-MCP issue locally. LinkedIn-MCP is a tool server that lets software access LinkedIn, and the procedure uses a real authenticated LinkedIn session.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate a numbered GitHub issue, repeat its failing LinkedIn action, compare expected and actual behaviour, and trace the failure to scraper code.
Why use it?
It replaces guesses about a reported bug with the exact tool output, error, or missing data that occurs on the current code branch.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: argument-hint in frontmatter. Also seen: positional $N argument; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is stickerdaniel/linkedin-mcp-server's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on linkedin-mcp-server itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything linkedin-mcp-server configures →

About the project

linkedin-mcp-server is a local MCP server that gives compatible AI assistants access to LinkedIn through a logged-in browser session. Agents can use it to inspect profiles and companies, search jobs, retrieve job details, and manage certain LinkedIn interactions. The catalogue add-ons operate this server and expose its LinkedIn workflows to agents.

SkillSpector: 3 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Tool Misuse · line 147
    Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).
    Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

2-repro-issue scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 24d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Investigate a LinkedIn-MCP issue

Evaluate the reporter packet and the matching source. A live LinkedIn call is optional. Do not check out a PR or attempt a fix. That is /3-verify-pr-fix.

1. Read the issue

NUM=$(echo "$ARGUMENTS" | sed -E 's|.*/||; s|#||g' | grep -oE '^[0-9]+' | head -1)
[ -z "$NUM" ] && { echo "Invalid input: '$ARGUMENTS'. Pass an issue number or URL." >&2; exit 1; }
REPO=stickerdaniel/linkedin-mcp-server

gh issue view $NUM --repo $REPO --comments

From the thread extract the tool, arguments, observed result, runtime, LinkedIn variant, and related issues. Distinguish observations, source findings, hypotheses, and work not run.

Map the tool to code:

  1. linkedin_mcp_server/tools/<surface>.py. MCP entrypoint and arg validation
  2. docs/linkedin-architecture.md. Generated ownership table; follow it to linkedin_mcp_server/linkedin/<owner>.py rather than treating linkedin/extractor.py as the implementation
  3. linkedin_mcp_server/linkedin/fields.py. PERSON_SECTIONS / COMPANY_SECTIONS (each entry = one navigation)
  4. The owner-local test, usually tests/linkedin/test_<owner>.py; use tests/test_fields.py, tests/test_identifiers.py, and tests/test_link_metadata.py for those owners, and tests/linkedin/test_facade_*.py only for facade contracts

2. Packet and source

Inspect the relevant source at the current SHA. Do not invent a LinkedIn result or an unimplemented tool call.

This step is complete when the report names the issue, the code SHA, the inspected evidence, the facts established, the unverified runtime claims, and the next decision.

Use one of:

  • supported by reporter evidence
  • confirmed in source
  • needs more evidence (list the specific missing fields)
  • not supported by the supplied evidence

A successful call on the maintainer's different account never refutes a failure on the reporter's account. Target content language is not the authenticated account's UI language. Captures and URL or attribute evidence may establish the needed variation without another live call.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
