LinkedIn

LinkedIn is a write-only connector: Kwern posts what you approved from your profile and reads nothing, because the self-service grant LinkedIn hands out reads nothing.

What Kwern reads

Your name, once

Your name, once, to label the account.

What Kwern can change, once you approve

A post from your profile

A post from your own profile, on approval.

How the connection is made

Connecting the account

One click through LinkedIn's authorization. The grant lasts sixty days and cannot be refreshed, so Kwern shows when it is running out and asks you to reconnect.

Binding it to a product

Nothing. The member is the resource.

What Kwern never does

Never without an approval

Kwern never posts without an approval.

Nothing read back

No analytics, no company page, no comment, no reading a post back. The grant does not allow it.

Refused before it is sent

A post over three thousand characters, the cap LinkedIn sets, is refused before it is sent.

Questions

The agents that use it

These agents cannot run without it. Without the connection each one says what to connect and does not run.

Someone is asking for what you built today.

On Reddit, on X, in ChatGPT's answers. Kwern finds them every morning and drafts the reply in your voice; you decide what goes out.
