The Best LinkedIn Skills for Claude Code

LinkedIn is the only social platform in our directory with a full skill family. Eight skills, scored 8.5 to 9.5, and they map onto a workflow rather than a single task.

Most social-media skills are one prompt in a trench coat. The LinkedIn set is different: it covers the whole loop from finding material to publishing to replying, with each skill scoped to one step. That makes it unusually easy to install exactly what you need.

The skills worth installing

linkedin-reply-handler — 9.5 · Productivity

Drafts replies to individual comments from their URL, or sweeps an entire thread. The highest-scoring skill in the family. Replying is the most neglected part of LinkedIn work — most people build posting pipelines and then let the comments rot.

linkedin-interviewer — 9.4 · Productivity

Interviews you to extract the raw material your posts are drawn from — the experiences, numbers, and arguments you have but have not written down. This is the step everyone skips, and it is why so much LinkedIn content reads like it was generated from a template: it was.

linkedin-post-writer — 9.3 · Productivity

Drafts posts using named hook formulas. Opinionated about structure, which is useful — "write me a LinkedIn post" with no structure produces the same five-paragraph mush every time.

linkedin-comment-drafter — 9.3 · Productivity

Comments on other people's posts from their URL. Distinct from replying: commenting is discovery, replying is maintenance. Both matter, and they are different enough to justify two skills.

linkedin-skills — 9.2 · Developer Tools

The orchestrator: plan, draft, audit, and publish. If you want one install rather than four, this is the broad option — but the specialists score higher because they are narrower.

linkedin-content-planner — 9.1 · Writing

Seven-day content plans from a theme, audience, and pillars. The anti-scroll answer to "what do I post this week".

linkedin-hook-extractor — 9.1 · Productivity

Reverse-engineers the hook formula from a viral post's URL. A study tool as much as a writing tool — useful for learning the patterns rather than copying one post.

linkedin-humanizer — 9.1 · Developer Tools

Removes the AI tells that both human readers and LinkedIn's own filter react to. Worth pairing with any of the writing skills above: drafts generated by an agent have a house style, and this is the corrective.

The four-skill workflow

If you want the minimal useful set: interviewer → post-writer → humanizer → reply-handler. That is the loop from raw material to published post to maintained conversation.

Add hook-extractor if you are studying what works, and content-planner if the bottleneck is ideation rather than writing.

How to choose

• One install? linkedin-skills.
• Publishing pipeline? interviewer + post-writer + humanizer.
• Audience engagement? reply-handler and comment-drafter are separate jobs.
• Learning? hook-extractor.

The social-publishing category overlaps with the Chinese-platform skills; the writing category covers the prose side.
