LinkedIn Post Writer
/linkedin-post
Claude Code writes LinkedIn posts using the structural patterns that maximize dwell time and reach: a strong opening line that earns the 'see more' click, a body that delivers value in a scannable format, and a closing that drives comments or profile visits.
What this skill does
Write a first-line hook that earns the 'see more' expansion click from the feed
Structure the post body in the short-paragraph format that LinkedIn's algorithm rewards for dwell time
End with a question or POV that drives comments without asking people to 'like and share'
Adapt the post format to the content type: personal story, insight, data point, or contrarian take
How to use it
Share your insight or topic
Describe the key point you want to make, any data or personal experience that supports it, and your target audience on LinkedIn.
Run /linkedin-post
Specify your posting goal (impressions, followers, DMs, or website clicks) and your industry and role for persona calibration.
Post and engage
Respond to every comment in the first hour of posting. LinkedIn's algorithm weights early engagement heavily for reach distribution.

Frequently asked questions
How long should a LinkedIn post be?
The most-shared format is 150 to 300 words. Long enough to deliver real value, short enough to read in under 90 seconds. Posts over 500 words work for detailed case studies or step-by-step breakdowns. Claude Code defaults to the 200 to 300 word range unless you request otherwise.
Should I use hashtags on LinkedIn?
3 to 5 relevant hashtags placed at the end of the post, not inline. LinkedIn uses hashtags for content discovery, but stuffing them reduces the professional appearance of the post. Claude Code adds hashtags after the post body when relevant.
What type of LinkedIn content gets the most engagement?
Personal stories with a professional lesson consistently outperform pure insight posts. Counter-intuitive claims that challenge common wisdom also perform well. Data-backed posts from original research or client work rank highly for shares. Claude Code writes across all these formats.
