    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Only manual activity (no automation)

    line 42
  2. Distinctive:

    Start light connection requests (5-10/day)

    line 48
  3. Distinctive:

    Stop all automation immediately

    line 81

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

LinkedIn Limits & Warm-Up Protocol

LinkedIn Limits (2024-2026)

Monthly Limits

  • 400 connection requests/month (non-premium)
  • 800 Open InMails/month (premium members)
  • ~120 interactions/day total (stay well below)

Recommended Daily Limits

  • 15-20 Direct Messages/day
  • 30-40 Open InMails/day
  • 10-15 connection requests/day
  • 40 "other interactions"/day

What Counts as Interactions

  • DMs, connection requests, InMails
  • Profile views
  • Post likes/comments
  • Page likes
  • Endorsements
  • Joining events/groups

LinkedIn Warm-Up Protocol

When Needed

  • Inactive accounts
  • New accounts
  • Accounts returning from restriction

Process

Days 1-10:

  • 60 interactions/day maximum
  • Only manual activity (no automation)
  • Mix of views, likes, comments
  • Focus on genuine engagement

Days 11-20:

  • Gradually increase to 80/day
  • Start light connection requests (5-10/day)
  • Continue manual engagement

Days 21+:

  • Gradual increase to full limits
  • Introduce automation carefully
  • Monitor for warnings

Red Flags to Avoid

  1. Sudden activity spikes - Gradual increase only
  2. Same message to everyone - Vary your copy
  3. Connecting outside work hours - Stay within 9 AM - 6 PM
  4. Weekend activity - Weekdays only
  5. Automation too early - Manual first 2-3 weeks

Recovery from Restriction

  1. Stop all automation immediately
  2. Manual activity only for 2 weeks
  3. Respond to existing conversations
  4. Post valuable content
  5. Engage with others' content
  6. Slowly reintroduce outreach

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
