description: "/cs:linkedin-repurpose — Split an article, talk transcript, README, or write-up into standalone LinkedIn units, score each on whether it survives without its context, and skip anything already in the reuse ledger so the same idea never goes out twice."
argument-hint: "[path to the source: article, transcript, README, notes]"

/cs:linkedin-repurpose — One source, many posts, no duplicates

**Command:** `/cs:linkedin-repurpose [path to source]`

When to run

• "Turn my talk into LinkedIn posts"
• "I wrote this article — what can I post from it?"
• You have a body of work and an empty content calendar

What you get

1. **Scored standalone units** — length, dangling references, evidence, substance. A unit opening with "This meant that…" is disqualified regardless of its score, because it refers to something the reader never saw. 2. **A suggested format** per unit. 3. **Ledger-aware output** — anything already posted is skipped, with its date available on request. 4. **The named gap you have to fill** — the first-person sentence only you can write.

Workflow

# Split and see what is available
python3 ../skills/linkedin-content/scripts/repurpose_splitter.py \
  --input talk.md --ledger .linkedin-ledger.json --output human

# After publishing unit 2, record it
python3 ../skills/linkedin-content/scripts/repurpose_splitter.py \
  --input talk.md --ledger .linkedin-ledger.json --record 2 --posted-on 2026-08-25

# Then lint the drafted post
python3 ../skills/linkedin-content/scripts/post_linter.py --input draft.md --output human

Commit the ledger alongside the source. It is project state, not a cache.

Discipline

• **Every unit is source material, not a post.** Add what it cost, what you assumed, or what

you would do differently. That sentence is the only genuinely new thing in a repurposed post.

• **Consent and confidentiality first** for post-mortems, customer notes, and anything with a

named third party. The pattern is publishable; the customer is not.

• **Never publish identical text on two platforms the same day.**
• **One source should not carry a quarter.** When units start needing more setup than

payload, the ledger is telling you to go do something new.

Stop conditions

• Usable units identified and the first one drafted and linted clean → done.
• `NOT_SPLITTABLE` (exit 3) → this is one post, not a series. Say so and write the one post.
• All units already in the ledger → the source is mined out. Do not re-cut it.
