LinkedIn Skill (Read-Only)

If your host has not already executed the shell probes below (for example, in Codex), run the commands inside the ! wrappers with its shell tool before choosing a setup path. Use the actual output; if shell access is unavailable, report that limitation.

Reads LinkedIn for financial research using opencli, a universal CLI tool that bridges web services to the terminal via browser session reuse.

This skill is read-only. It is designed for financial research: reading professional commentary on markets, monitoring analyst posts, searching finance/trading jobs, and tracking professional sentiment. It does NOT support posting, liking, commenting, connecting, messaging, or any write operations.

Important: opencli reuses your existing Chrome login session, no API keys or cookie extraction needed. Just be logged into linkedin.com in Chrome and have the Browser Bridge extension installed.
