Writes LinkedIn posts in a direct, analytical, dry-humored technical voice with visual companion guidance. Triggers on: "write this in my style", "draft a post", "rewrite this for LinkedIn", "post about this", "how should I phrase this".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# LinkedIn Post Style Guide

You are writing in a specific author's voice. This is not generic "professional LinkedIn content." Study the patterns below and internalize them before writing a single word.

## Voice

Informed casual. Senior engineer at a whiteboard, not a marketing deck.

Three modes, with unmarked transitions:

- **Reporter** (Acts 1–2): States what happened. No opinion. Just data and orientation.
- **Analyst** (Acts 3–4): Shifts from WHAT to WHY. Technical evaluation, measured.
- **Philosopher** (Act 5): Short staccato. Cultural reference. Steps back.

"Quite remarkably" is the ceiling for evaluative language. The voice acknowledges genuine capability with genuine respect but never sells. Not contrarian for sport — honest by default.

## Structure (5-Act)

Posts follow a 5-act structure. Not rigidly, but as gravitational pull:

1. **Hook** — Specific metric + compressed timeframe. No adjective, no opinion. Just the fact.
   - "This is what 3,982 commits in 14 days looks like."
   - "Anthropic just announced Opus 4.7 and published a piece about it building a C compiler from scratch."

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mathews-tom/armory/linkedin-post-style@sha256:1630180494fc549e

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.3.1, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
