LinkedIn Search
Search your LinkedIn data archive to find posts by topic, connections by role/company, and view statistics.
Setup
- Download your LinkedIn data export from LinkedIn Settings → Get a copy of your data
- Copy the ZIP to the watch folder:
mkdir -p ~/.linkedin-exports cp ~/Downloads/Complete_LinkedInDataExport_*.zip ~/.linkedin-exports/
That's it! Dependencies install automatically on first use.
Usage
Search posts/shares:
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/linkedin-search/linkedin_search.py search-shares --query "AI"
Find connections:
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/linkedin-search/linkedin_search.py find-connections --title "founder" --company "microsoft"
Multi-keyword search:
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/linkedin-search/linkedin_search.py search-connections-keywords --keywords founder gtm
Get statistics:
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/linkedin-search/linkedin_search.py stats
How it works
- First query: auto-installs deps, extracts ZIP, loads to SQLite, creates indexes
- Subsequent queries: uses cached database (instant)
- New export: auto-detects and reloads when newer ZIP found in
~/.linkedin-exports/
Examples
"Did I write about AI?" → search-shares --query "AI"
"Find GTM agency founders" → search-connections-keywords --keywords founder gtm
"How many posts?" → stats
