A1-10 + D-5. The queue answers "what is scheduled"; nothing answered "is the week covered, and what is still being written". N13 makes both readable at session start. - Publishing slots are operator config: profile/publishing-slots.json in the per-user data dir, schema + OPT-IN template in config/publishing-slots.template.json. The plugin ships no publishing times and writes the grid for nobody; absent config means every slot surface stays silent (same never-nag discipline as the trend/brain nudges). Data dir rather than the state file, which is machine-written and whose frontmatter reader does not parse lists. - hooks/scripts/slots.mjs (new): one implementation behind four surfaces. Zero-dep (a SessionStart hook must not spawn tsx), pure core (dates in as strings, no clock), imported by the commands exactly as queue-manager.mjs already is — so session-start's vacancy warning and Step 10's slot default cannot drift apart. - Coverage counts the short-form queue (scheduled/published; cancelled frees the slot) AND editions-register rows claiming that date, counted per date, so long-form and short-form cannot be double-booked and a two-slot day needs two posts. - Session start gains "## Editions in Flight" (series, phase, next action, claimed slot, days in flight) and "## Publishing Slots" (next open slot, open count in 14 days, and how to fill it when the gap is <=3 days). The existing discovery nudge is untouched. - /linkedin router + /linkedin:calendar surface the same roll-up; calendar documents the opt-in copy. /linkedin:newsletter Step 10 defaults to the next open slot (one confirmation, not an interview) and writes --slot onto the register row. - D-5: references/scheduling-strategy.md marked "confidence: low / directional" per the algorithm reference's own standard, deferring to the operator's grid and their own analytics. Neutral example time replaces the operator-specific one in the N12 docs. TDD: red proven first (module absent; 5 session-start behaviours failing). hooks 140 -> 174 · test-runner 184 -> 197 (Section 16t: 13 unconditional greps incl. a de-niche check that no publishing time is hardcoded in the slot path and no operator grid is committed, + non-vacuity self-test; anti-erosion floor 166 -> 179). Suites green: trends 300/0 · brain 134/0 · editions 72/0 · specifics-bank 45/0 · tests 35/0 · render 60/0.

LinkedIn Studio Plugin (v0.7.0)
Full-spectrum LinkedIn content engine — short-form feed posts, carousels, video scripts, and long-form newsletter editions — with the 2026 relevance-ranking model baked in. Maturity v0.7.0: M0 (per-user data dir ${LINKEDIN_STUDIO_DATA:-$HOME/.claude/linkedin-studio}/, idempotent session-start migration — see references/data-path-convention.md) complete; the 29 pre-0.7.0 command surfaces all through the interactive quality-gate (docs/hardening/log.md) AND through independent cold-review (29/29, R2a–R5 — docs/hardening/review*.md); /linkedin:trends (shipped in 0.7.0) is not yet through the hardening gate. Remaining for v1.0.0: a GUI. Version history → CHANGELOG.md.
Architecture
- State file:
~/.claude/linkedin-studio.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 (macOSpbcopy, Linuxxclip/xsel, WSLclip.exe). All content commands auto-copy - iCal generator:
hooks/scripts/ical-generator.mjs— RFC 5545 calendar files for batch scheduling. Standalone CLI + importable module - Figure renderer:
render/build-figur.mjs— coded data figures (SVG/HTML → PNG via headless Chrome); three targets (article/carousel/single); brand tokens from the user data dir'sprofile/brand-tokens.json, neutral defaults otherwise (seereferences/figure-design-guidelines.md). Standalone CLI + importable module - Post queue:
assets/drafts/queue.json(managed byhooks/scripts/queue-manager.mjs) - Analytics: CLI
scripts/analytics/(TypeScript, needstsx+npm install); dataassets/analytics/(gitignored) - Specifics-bank:
scripts/specifics-bank/(TypeScript, needstsx+npm install) — deterministic, topic-tagged store of the operator's lived specifics (real numbers, named cases, held opinions) in the per-user data dir; elicited/bound by/linkedin:newsletterStep 1.5 so drafts draw from real inventory, never invented filler. Consumption is logged back at Step 8 lock (record-usage→usedIn), so cross-edition re-use of the same material is visible rather than silently encouraged by the dedupe - Series distillate:
scripts/editions/(TypeScript, needstsx+npm install) — series-level memory: each locked edition's spent narrative units (anecdotes/arguments/hooks) in<serie>/linkedin/series-distillate.json; written at/linkedin:newsletterStep 8 (distil-append), checked against the next skeleton at Step 2.5 (distil-check, advisory). Deterministic character-trigram similarity — AI extracts, code compares - Editions register:
scripts/editions/(same package) — one row per edition in production in the per-user data dir (editions/register.json): series, edition, path, current phase, next action, slot,startedAt/completedAt. Each of the 16 canonical/linkedin:newsletterphase transitions runsregister-upsert --edition-state <path>, which appendsarticles.NN.phaseLog(lead-time telemetry, additive — schemaVersion stays 1) and mirrors the row in one call; Step 10 runsregister-complete.register-listis the work-in-progress view. The register is a mirror — deterministic resumption readsedition-state.jsononly, and a lost register is rebuilt by the next transition - Publishing slots:
hooks/scripts/slots.mjs— the weekly production grid. Slots are operator config in the per-user data dir (profile/publishing-slots.json, schema + opt-in template inconfig/publishing-slots.template.json); absent config ⇒ every slot surface stays silent, and the plugin hardcodes no publishing times. Coverage of a slot counts the short-form queue (scheduled/published) and editions-register rows claiming that date, so long-form and short-form cannot be double-booked. Zero-dep (SessionStart may not spawn tsx) and imported identically by the hook and by the commands (queue-manager.mjspattern), so session-start's vacancy warning and/linkedin:newsletterStep 10's slot default are the same computation - Contract-gate:
scripts/contract-gate/(TypeScript, needstsx+npm install) — deterministic §B/§C1 rule-gate on the full draft (/linkedin:newsletterStep 4.5, before the AI sweeps); ratifiesrules.tsagainst the edition's §E-manifest, then gates with BLOCK/WARN - Analytics metrics (S16): parsed CSV columns + an optional, manually-entered
savescount (count-only in native LinkedIn analytics since ~Sept 2025, no CSV export; the Marketing API exposesPOST_SAVEon/memberCreatorPostAnalyticsfrom v202604, but access is partner-gated — so manual entry remains the right UX).parseOptionalCount(): blank / non-numeric / negative →undefined(unknown, never 0), a genuine0is kept; saves surfaced per-post + astotalSaves, but not folded intoengagementRate.dwellstays explicitly unmeasurable (internal to LinkedIn, no export/API). All analytics I/O routes through thegetAnalyticsRoot()seam (M0 per-user data-dir).
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, editions in flight + publishing-slot vacancy |
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, slots.mjs.
State updates: post tracking, streak, and content history are handled deterministically by state-updater.mjs (Stop hook + commands); 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 load at runtime via gatekeeper scripts; the compile step is only needed when adding type: prompt hooks.
Commands (30)
All content commands auto-copy output to clipboard via clipboard-helper.mjs; interactive steps are minimized (angle/format/post-type inferred from context, max 2 questions per post). Organized into five journeys (Start · Create · Engage · Measure · Grow): create/measure are guided creation/analytics front-doors, onboarding/strategy the Start/Grow front-doors, and the 28 atomic commands are the execution tier.

Rule: Always read assets/voice-samples/ before generating content.
Invocation form: commands invoke plugin agents by their namespaced type — subagent_type: linkedin-studio:<name>, never the bare <name> (a bare type does not resolve and the Task call fails).
Reload requirement: a NEW agent file under agents/ registers only after a Claude Code session reload (the plugin agent set is built at session start). Reload before invoking a freshly-added agent.
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 (correlate with lower reach; see
references/algorithm-signals-reference.md) - 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 (topic-relevance 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
