LinkedIn Thought Leadership Plugin (v1.1.0)

Build LinkedIn thought leadership with algorithmic understanding, strategic consistency, and authentic engagement. January 2026 360Brew algorithm update integrated.

Architecture

• State file: ~/.claude/linkedin-thought-leadership.local.md (YAML frontmatter, auto-initialized from config/state-file.template.md)
• Post queue: assets/drafts/queue.json (managed by hooks/scripts/queue-manager.mjs)
• Analytics CLI: scripts/analytics/ (TypeScript, requires tsx and npm 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.

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.
