What it does

Linkedin Coach is an agent skill from Zal4DW/career-helper. Use when the user wants help with LinkedIn specifically, such as a profile audit, headline, content strategy, reviewing a post, or a video introduction script. For deciding what they want to be known for before the LinkedIn work, use personal-brand first.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 11 other files, including reference files (for example `references/career-returner-linkedin-guide.md`, `references/content-calendar-template.md` and `references/content-strategy-coaching.md`).

It sits in Writing & Content, covering Content strategy. It works with LinkedIn. The repository describes itself as: A career helper skill for claude (desktop/web/code).

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants help with LinkedIn specifically
  • Such as a profile audit
  • Content strategy
  • Reviewing a post

Example prompts

  • “/linkedin-coach”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c19cefe. 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.

    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

Linkedin Coach loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~32k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 843 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~32k

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 843 words (~1,915 tokens).
