LinkedIn Search Skill
Search live job listings from LinkedIn's public job board for any country/region
(and remote). No authentication, no API key, and zero runtime dependencies — it runs
with just bun. The location is always passed explicitly, so the same skill works for a
forker in any market out of the box.
This is a country-agnostic worked example of the repo's job-portal-skill pattern. LinkedIn's
jobs-guestendpoints are global and the HTML parsing is country-independent; only the--locationyou pass changes per market.
⚠️ Personal use only
This uses LinkedIn's public job pages; automated access is against LinkedIn's Terms of Service, so keep volume low and don't use it commercially or for bulk data collection. Run it on your own responsibility.
When to use this skill
- Search for job openings in a given location (any country/city) or remotely
- Filter by recency (posted today / last 7 / 14 / 30 days) or workplace type (remote/hybrid/onsite)
- Get the full description of a specific job listing
Commands
Search job listings
bashbun run .agents/skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts search --location "<place>" [flags]
Key flags:
--location <text>/-l <text>— required. A LinkedIn place string, e.g."Mumbai, Maharashtra, India","Berlin, Germany","London, United Kingdom", or"Remote".--query <text>/-q <text>— keyword search (title, skill, role). Recommended.--jobage <days>— posted within N days:1,7,14,30. Omit for all postings.--jobage-minutes <n>— posted within N minutes (sub-day precision, e.g.30). Conflicts with--jobage— pass only one.--remote <mode>—remote,hybrid, oronsite(workplace-type filter).--page <n>— page number (1-indexed, 10 results per page).--limit <n>/-n <n>— cap total results emitted (client-side).--format json|table|plain— defaultjson.
Fetch full job detail
bashbun run .agents/skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts detail <id|url> [--format json|plain]
id is the job ID from search results (e.g. 4426311357). You may also pass a full
LinkedIn jobs/view/... URL or a urn:li:jobPosting:... URN. Returns the full description,
seniority, employment type, job function, and industries.
Usage examples
bash# Data engineer roles in Bengaluru, last 30 days bun run .agents/skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts search -q "data engineer" -l "Bengaluru, Karnataka, India" --jobage 30 --format table # Product manager roles in Berlin, remote bun run .agents/skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts search -q "product manager" -l "Berlin, Germany" --remote remote --format table # Any role, fully remote bun run .agents/skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts search -q "paralegal" -l "Remote" --format table # Engineer roles, remote, posted in the last 30 minutes bun run .agents/skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts search -q "engineer" -l "Remote" --jobage-minutes 30 --format table # Full details for a specific job bun run .agents/skills/linkedin-search/cli/src/cli.ts detail 4426311357 --format plain
Output formats
| Format | Best for |
|---|---|
json | Default — programmatic use, passing IDs to detail |
table | Quick human-readable scanning |
plain | Reading a single job's full detail (detail command) |
All errors are written to stderr as { "error": "...", "code": "..." } and the process exits with code 1.
Notes
- Data is from LinkedIn's public
jobs-guestendpoints — no credentials required. - Page size is fixed at 10 results per page.
- LinkedIn may rate-limit; the CLI retries 429/5xx with exponential backoff. Keep volume low (see ToS note above).
- Job IDs are numeric (e.g.
4426311357) — pass them as-is todetail.
