Two new pipeline phases gate the spine before any prose is written: - Step 2.5 — Skeleton + section pitch: writes <serie>/NN-skjelett.md with the five-line spine (premiss / problem / anbefaling / gevinst / vei videre) + one-line section pitches. Operator-gate (JA / REVIDER / NEI) AND parallel persona-skjelett-sweep must both return JA before the pipeline can advance. - Step 3a — Spine prose: one paragraph per section against the gated skeleton, ~20-30% of final edition length. Operator-gate on whether the axis lands now that there is prose on it. Old Step 3 (Draft) split into 3a (spine) and 3b (full expansion); 3b owns the multi-session draft-cursor logic. Third persona-reviewer mode added: skjelett (alongside resonans + konverter). Five spine axes scored HOLDER / TVILER / MANGLER, max 3 direction-only flags, per-pitch section-pay-in check. Reads the skeleton + pitches only. Pipeline grows from 11 to 13 phases; commands (24) and agents (14) counts unchanged. Encodes the Maskinrommet writing-contract section A discipline (premiss / problem / anbefaling / gevinst / vei videre) into the pipeline. Empirically motivated by the Seres-serien Del 3 + Del 4 production: a spine error caught at the skeleton stage costs 5-15 min, the same error caught at Step 6 (resonance) costs 4-12 h, post-lock it costs a day of cascading rework (delingstekst, hooks, carousel, doc refs). Backward-compatible: existing editions stop at currentPhase: "research" and now resume at Step 2.5 instead of Step 3 — an intended deterministic improvement, never a contract break. Steps 1, 2, 4-10 bit-for-bit unchanged. Renderers (build-html.mjs, build-linkedin.mjs) untouched. New phase strings in edition-state.template.json _doc.phases: - skeleton-pitch (between research and draft) - spine-prose (between skeleton-pitch and draft) Files changed (10): - plugin.json: 2.0.0 -> 2.1.0 - CHANGELOG.md: new [2.1.0] entry - CLAUDE.md (plugin + marketplace): pipeline 11->13 phases noted - README.md (plugin + marketplace): What's New v2.1.0 + version row - agents/persona-reviewer.md: third mode skjelett added; resonans + konverter unchanged - commands/newsletter.md: Step 2.5 + 3a + 3b sections, resumption + pipeline tables - config/edition-state.template.json: 11 -> 13 phases in _doc.phases - references/longform-quality-rules.md: Rule 8 (Skjelett foer prosa) Verification: 9/9 criteria PASS pre-commit. Phase strings consistent across template + command + resumption table. Renderer files git-untouched. All 11 original step headings preserved (Step 0/1/2/4-10).

LinkedIn Thought Leadership Plugin (v2.1.0)
Full-spectrum LinkedIn content engine — short-form feed posts, carousels, video scripts, and long-form newsletter editions — with the January 2026 360Brew algorithm baked in. v2.0.0 consolidated the surface (27 commands → 24, 16 agents → 14) while adding the long-form /linkedin:newsletter orchestrator + two longform-quality gate agents (fact-checker, persona-reviewer). v2.1.0 adds two new gates BEFORE prose to /linkedin:newsletter — Step 2.5 (skeleton + section pitch with operator-gate + persona-skjelett-sweep) and Step 3a (spine prose with operator-gate) — plus a third persona-reviewer mode (skjelett), encoding the Maskinrommet writing-contract §A discipline (premiss / problem / anbefaling / gevinst / vei videre) into the pipeline itself. Pipeline grows from 11 to 13 phases; commands and agents unchanged in count (24, 14).
Architecture
- State file:
~/.claude/linkedin-thought-leadership.local.md(YAML frontmatter, auto-initialized fromconfig/state-file.template.md) - State updater:
hooks/scripts/state-updater.mjs— deterministic state mutations (post tracking, streak, content history pruning). Pure functions, tested, no AI involvement - Clipboard helper:
hooks/scripts/clipboard-helper.mjs— cross-platform clipboard integration (macOSpbcopy, Linuxxclip/xsel, WSLclip.exe). All content commands auto-copy to clipboard - iCal generator:
hooks/scripts/ical-generator.mjs— RFC 5545 calendar file generation for batch scheduling. Standalone CLI + importable module - Post queue:
assets/drafts/queue.json(managed byhooks/scripts/queue-manager.mjs) - Analytics CLI:
scripts/analytics/(TypeScript, requirestsxandnpm install) - Analytics data:
assets/analytics/(gitignored)
Hooks
9 hooks across 7 events. All Node.js (.mjs). PreToolUse/PostToolUse hooks use parameterized content-gatekeeper.mjs with isLinkedInContent() check.
| Event | Purpose |
|---|---|
SessionStart |
Load state, REMEMBER.md, milestone tracker |
PreToolUse (Write|Edit) |
Content quality gate, voice guardian, topic rotation gate |
Stop |
State update, pre-publish reminders, content history |
UserPromptSubmit |
LinkedIn context enrichment (three-tier matching) |
PostToolUse (Write) |
Post-creation automation (5x5x5, posting time) |
PreCompact |
Preserve LinkedIn context during compaction |
Notification |
Posting reminders (rate-limited 30min) |
Session markers: /tmp/linkedin-hooks/session-active (Stop hook gating, 12h staleness). Shared modules: linkedin-content-filter.mjs, queue-manager.mjs, personalization-score.mjs, state-updater.mjs, clipboard-helper.mjs.
State updates: Post tracking, streak management, and content history are handled deterministically by state-updater.mjs (called from Stop hook and commands). Content history entries older than 90 days are auto-pruned at session start.
Hook editing: Edit hooks/hooks.template.json + hooks/prompts/*.md, then run python3 hooks/scripts/compile-hooks.py. Do not edit hooks.json directly. Prompts are loaded at runtime by gatekeeper scripts; the compile step is only needed when adding type: prompt hooks.
Commands (24)
All content commands (post, quick, react, pipeline, first-post, video, multiplatform, carousel, newsletter) auto-copy output to clipboard via clipboard-helper.mjs. Interactive steps are minimized — angle, format, and post type are inferred from context, with max 2 questions per post. v2.0.0 net change: 5 commands removed (templates, publish, authority, collab, speaking — absorbed into quick, calendar, strategy, outreach respectively) + 2 commands added (newsletter, outreach) = 27 → 24.

Rule: Always read assets/voice-samples/ before generating content.
Invocation form: Commands invoke plugin agents by their namespaced type —
subagent_type: linkedin-thought-leadership:<name> — never the bare <name> (a bare
type does not resolve and the Task call fails).
Reload requirement: Adding a NEW agent file under agents/ registers it only after
a Claude Code session reload — the plugin agent set is built at session start, so a
freshly-added agent (e.g. fact-checker, persona-reviewer when first added) is not
invokable until the session reloads. After adding an agent, reload before invoking it.
Content Quality Rules
- Hook: 110-140 characters (mobile cutoff)
- Post length: 1,200-1,800 chars (standard), 150-500 chars (quick)
- No external links in post body (40-50% reach suppression)
- No corporate buzzwords: leverage, synergy, paradigm shift, thought leader, disruptive, value proposition, ecosystem, holistic approach
- Topic must align with user's 5 core expertise areas (360Brew signal)
- Topic rotation: no back-to-back same pillar, no pillar >50% in 14 days (warn-only)
- Progressive onboarding: personalization score hidden until 3+ posts; voice guardian suppressed until 5+ voice samples
