Setup & Customization Checklist
1. Trigger setup
This skill runs from a LinkedIn Engagement trigger monitoring the tracked influencer's profile, with a broad topic filter (the skill's Step 1 is the precise gate). Reference trigger instructions:
When a tracked influencer publishes a LinkedIn post about [your company],
follow the <Influencer Post — Engager Capture> skill.
The skill will:
1. Verify the post is genuinely focused on [your company] (not just a
mention in a list)
2. Filter out your team, company pages, and non-ICP engagers
3. Run full lead scoring on ICP-fit companies not already in a later
pipeline stage
4. Post a digest to [signals channel]
- One trigger per tracked influencer (or one trigger monitoring a list, if your platform supports it).
- The trigger fires per-engager as engagement streams in — this is why the skill re-scrapes the full post (Step 2) and dedups against prior runs. Expect multiple runs per post.
2. External tooling
- Apify account with credits — two actors are load-bearing:
apimaestro/linkedin-post-comments-replies-engagements-scraper-no-cookies(full engager list; the trigger's list is always a subset)harvestapi/linkedin-profile-scraper(batch person→company resolution; never parse companies out of headlines) Verify both actors still exist and their output fields match Steps 2–3; Apify actors change hands and schemas occasionally.
- LinkedIn tools connected for the Step 1b post-like (skip that step if unavailable).
- Business search + company enrichment tools connected (free search first, paid enrichment only after the eyeball ICP check — this is the cost-control pattern).
3. Placeholders
-
{{COMPANY}},{{INTERNAL_DOMAINS}},{{TEAM_MEMBERS}}— the team list must be full names as they appear on LinkedIn, including teammates whose profiles don't list your company as employer. -
{{ICP_SEGMENTS}}— spelled out concretely (segment names + the obvious exclusions). This gate is where most engagers should die. -
{{SIGNALS_CHANNEL}},{{LEAD_SCORING_SKILL}},{{TIER_SCALE}}.
4. Policy decisions
- Detection + scoring only — this skill creates no outreach. Routing scored leads to outreach belongs downstream; keep it that way.
- Reactors vs commenters: the skill processes both, but comment scraping is the reliable path; reactor coverage depends on the trigger. Decide if reactor-only engagers are worth scoring for you.
- Digest granularity: per-lead top-level messages + one final digest is the tested format. High-volume influencer posts (100+ engagers) can flood a channel — consider a dedicated channel per campaign.
5. Behavioral invariants (do not remove)
- Step 1 precise focus check — a passing mention in a listicle must stop the run.
- Always scrape the post directly; never trust the trigger's engager subset.
- Never extract company from a LinkedIn headline.
- Dedup at three levels: against prior runs on the same post, across engagers at the same company, and against later-stage pipeline accounts.
- Never downgrade a funnel stage; active-deal accounts get a "warm signal" flag instead of re-scoring.
- Engagement alone caps at the second-lowest tier.
