What it does

Li Carousel is an agent skill from Jakeschincariol/linkedin-agent-skill. Build a LinkedIn document post (carousel) - slide-by-slide copy, the cover that earns the swipe, and the PDF to upload. Use when the user says "carousel", "document post", "slides for LinkedIn", "turn this into a carousel", or has a list-shaped idea that would die as a text post.

Its SKILL.md is about 720 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 Documents & Office, covering Slides and decks and PDF. It works with LinkedIn. The repository describes itself as: Eleven free Claude skills that run a LinkedIn account: posts off 21 hook formulas, comments, replies, profile score, weekly plan, and a humanizer that strips the AI fingerprint… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user says carousel
  • Slides for LinkedIn
  • Turn this into a carousel
  • Has a list-shaped idea that would die as a text post

Example prompts

  • “carousel”
  • “document post”
  • “slides for LinkedIn”
  • “/li-carousel”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit add2c23. 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

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

Li Carousel loads about 715 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 73 tokens; SKILL.md has 336 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~73
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~715

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.

description
Build a LinkedIn document post (carousel) - slide-by-slide copy, the cover that earns the swipe, and the PDF to upload. Use when the user says "carousel", "document post", "slides for LinkedIn", "turn this into a carousel", or has a list-shaped idea that would die as a text post.

Document posts are the highest-dwell format on LinkedIn, because a swipe is counted and a scroll is not. The format rewards one idea broken into steps. It punishes a text post cut into pieces.

When to use it instead of a text post

Use a carousel when the idea has sequence - steps, a countdown, a before/after progression, a framework with parts. Use a text post when the idea is one claim. Splitting one claim across eight slides is the most common way carousels fail, and if that is what the user has, say so and hand them to /li-post.

Structure

8-12 slides. Under 8 is a text post. Over 12 and the completion rate falls off a cliff.

1        COVER      the hook, 6 words or fewer, plus one line of promise
2        THE STAKE  why this matters, in one sentence
3-N      ONE IDEA PER SLIDE. A headline of 3-7 words, and at most 25 words
                    under it. If a slide needs a paragraph, it is two slides.
N+1      RECAP      the whole thing as a list, so the screenshot is useful
LAST     CTA        one action. Follow, comment a keyword, or the link. One.

Slide copy rules

  • Slide 1 is 80% of the result. Six words. Big. The rest of the deck cannot save a cover nobody swipes.
  • Number every slide (3/10). Completion goes up when people can see the end.
  • No slide is a paragraph. If you cannot say it in 25 words, split it.
  • The recap slide is the one people screenshot. Make it standalone.
  • The user's handle on every slide, small, bottom corner. Screenshots travel without you.

Making the PDF

LinkedIn wants a PDF, 1080x1350 (4:5) for maximum feed real estate, under 100MB, under 300 pages. Build it as HTML and print to PDF:

bash
# one page per slide, 1080x1350, no margins
# then: Chrome headless --print-to-pdf, or any HTML-to-PDF you already use

Write the HTML with one <section> per slide, width:1080px; height:1350px; page-break-after:always, a single accent colour, and type no smaller than 28px - people read these on a phone at thumbnail size. If the user has a brand skill or design system in this project, use it and do not invent a palette.

Output

The slide-by-slide copy first, as a numbered list the user can read in ten seconds. Then the accompanying post text - a carousel still needs 2-3 lines above it, which is the actual hook in the feed. Run both through /li-human. Then build the PDF only if the user approves the copy.

Nothing is uploaded to LinkedIn. The user posts the PDF themselves.
