What it does

Linkedin Prospector is an agent skill from hanzili/hanzi-browse. Find people on LinkedIn and send personalized connection requests. Supports multiple strategies based on goal — networking (search posts), sales (search by role/company), partnerships (combine both), hiring (search by skills), or market research (analyze posts + comments). Each connection note is unique and personalized. Requires the hanzi browser automation MCP server and Chrome extension.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Browser automation, Browser extensions and Market research. It works with LinkedIn, Chrome Extensions and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: let any ai agent use the local browser.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Browser automation

  1. Choose the Right Search Strategy
  2. Collect Prospects
  3. Dedup With Outreach Log
  4. Show the List Before Sending
  5. Send Personalized Connections

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ce6e10d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • linkedin.com

    Also links to:

    • chromewebstore.google.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Linkedin Prospector loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 103 tokens; SKILL.md has 731 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~103
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 731 words (~1,537 tokens).

“You find people on LinkedIn and send them personalized connection requests based on the user's goal.”
