LinkedIn Article Cover Skill

Turn an article, draft, or topic into three polished English LinkedIn cover options—ready for you to review and choose.

What it does

• Reads an article, local document, draft, or topic
• Checks the current official LinkedIn article-cover specification
• Creates three genuinely different English cover concepts
• Reviews text accuracy, crop safety, aspect ratio, and thumbnail clarity
• Saves the final PNG files to the active workspace

LinkedIn currently recommends 1920 × 1080 px (16:9) for article and newsletter covers. The Skill verifies the specification before each run instead of relying on a fixed platform assumption.

Install

Ask Codex:

Install the linkedin-article-cover Skill from:
https://github.com/HeyClioo/linkedin-article-cover-skill

Or clone it into your personal Skills directory:

git clone https://github.com/HeyClioo/linkedin-article-cover-skill.git \
  ~/.codex/skills/linkedin-article-cover

Use

Use $linkedin-article-cover to create three English LinkedIn article cover options from this article:
/path/to/article.md

You can also provide pasted text, a draft, or a topic instead of a file.

Default workflow

Read content → verify LinkedIn specs → create 3 covers → inspect and save → present options

The Skill does not rank the covers by default. It explains the role of each concept and leaves the final choice to you.
