/cs-linkedin-outreach¶
Command: /cs:linkedin-outreach [who, and how much time]
Nothing here is sent. No credentials, no API calls. Automated connecting, messaging, commenting, liking, and sharing are prohibited by LinkedIn's User Agreement §8.2.
When to run¶
- "Who should I be commenting on?"
- "Write a connection request to X"
- "How many invites can I safely send this week?"
- Reach is flat and you are only publishing
What you get¶
- A five-day comment roster from accounts you name, capped at two appearances per account per week and balanced across tiers.
- A volume verdict — safe, tight, over a cap, or refused as an automation plan.
- One assembled message with the person-specific line enforced and the 200/300-character cap checked.
- The follow-up rule, stated once.
Workflow¶
# 1. Roster (tiers: huge | larger | peer | smaller)
python3 ../skills/linkedin-engagement/scripts/comment_target_planner.py \
--account "Priya Raman:5:4:larger" --account "Tomas Lind:5:3:peer" \
--minutes-per-day 18 --output human
# 2. Volume check BEFORE writing anything
python3 ../skills/linkedin-engagement/scripts/outreach_volume_guard.py \
--invites 20 --pending 5 --minutes 120 --acceptance 0.42 --output human
# exit 4 = refused as an automation plan. Do not build a smaller version of it silently.
# 3. One message, for one person
python3 ../skills/linkedin-engagement/scripts/outreach_message_builder.py \
--type connection --recipient "Priya" --specific-line "..." --reason "..." --output human
Discipline¶
- No engagement pods. Coordinated reciprocal commenting is inauthentic engagement under §8.2 regardless of who pressed the key.
- The tool builds the roster, never the comments. A generated comment is exactly what the rule names, and it is recognisable anyway.
- Every message carries a line that could only have been written for that person.
- No ask in a first-touch connection note. The note earns the conversation, not the meeting.
- Acceptance below 20% is a stop signal, not a reason to send more.
- One follow-up, a week later, only with something new to say.
Stop conditions¶
- Roster built and the first day's comments written by the user → done.
- Volume guard at exit 4 → refuse, explain once, offer the manual cadence. If the user reaffirms, say the risk is theirs and decline to build it.
- Message at exit 0 → hand it over with "send this yourself, to this one person".
