How It Works
Monitoring Flow
1. Health Check
└── Verify LinkedIn auth (lk CLI)
2. Fetch Messages
└── lk message list --json
3. Compare State
└── Filter: only messages not in state file
4. For Each New Message
├── Level 0: Alert only
├── Level 1: Draft reply → Alert → Wait for approval
├── Level 2: Simple = auto-reply, Complex = draft
└── Level 3: Full autonomous response
5. Update State
└── Record message IDs (prevents duplicates)
State Management
State is managed by scripts, not the LLM. This guarantees:
- No duplicate notifications
- Consistent behavior across sessions
- Visible state for debugging
State files: ~/.clawdbot/linkedin-monitor/state/
Sending Approved Messages
When at Level 1, approve drafts with:
send [name] # Send draft to [name]
send all # Send all pending drafts
edit [name] [text] # Edit draft before sending
skip [name] # Discard draft
Troubleshooting
"Auth expired"
lk auth login
linkedin-monitor health
"No messages found"
linkedin-monitor check --debug
Duplicate notifications
linkedin-monitor reset # Clear state
linkedin-monitor check # Fresh start
Dependencies
lkCLI (LinkedIn CLI) —npm install -g lkjq(JSON processor) —brew install jq
