LinkedIn Engagement — comments first, outreach second

This skill helps grow LinkedIn reach through a comment-first strategy, then safe, personalized outreach. It builds a weekly comment roster within a time budget, checks outreach volume against LinkedIn's limits, and assembles one tailored message at a time. Nothing is ever auto-sent.

✨ What it does

  • Builds a weekly comment roster with per-account and per-tier caps.
  • Checks outreach volume against LinkedIn's weekly limits and acceptance floor.
  • Assembles one personalized message at a time, refusing templates and dead phrases.
  • Enforces character caps for connection notes.
  • Provides a structured order: comment, then invite, then ask.
  • Includes scripts for planning, message building, and volume guarding.

🎯 When to use it

  • When you want to increase LinkedIn reach through comments and engagement.
  • When you need to write a connection request, cold DM, or InMail.
  • When you're planning a networking strategy or wondering who to engage with.
  • When you need to check if your outreach volume is safe and within limits.

🚀 How to use

Trigger by asking for engagement help, e.g., 'who should I engage with', 'write a connection request', 'cold DM', 'LinkedIn outreach', 'networking strategy', or 'how many invites can I send'. Provide your target accounts, time budget, and any specific details for the message. The skill runs scripts to plan and check, then guides you to write one message manually. Example prompts:

Build a weekly comment roster for me, I have 18 minutes a day.
Write a connection request to Priya, mentioning her recent post on AI.

📄 Output: A weekly comment roster, volume safety check, and a single personalized outreach message.

⚠️ Good to know

Nothing is ever sent automatically; the user must paste and send manually. The skill does not write posts (see linkedin-content) and is not for email outreach.

❓ FAQ

Can I automate my LinkedIn outreach?

No. Automated connecting, messaging, commenting, liking, and sharing are prohibited by LinkedIn's User Agreement §8.2. This skill never sends anything.

What is the maximum number of invitations I can send per day?

The skill refuses to plan more than 40 invitations a day, because nobody can read that many profiles and write specific lines. Pending invitations also count against a weekly limit of around 100.

Why do I need a person-specific line in my connection request?

The message builder refuses to create a note without a line that could only be written for that person. This personalization is essential for authenticity and effectiveness.
