# LinkedIn Video Post Posts a video with accompanying text to LinkedIn. Uses Playwright for web interactions and macOS-use for the native file upload dialog. ## Prerequisites - Chrome logged into LinkedIn - Video file exists at an absolute path on disk - Post text prepared ## Step-by-Step Workflow ### Phase 1: Open Composer (Playwright) 1. Navigate to LinkedIn feed: ``` browser_navigate → https://www.linkedin.com/feed/ ``` 2. Take a snapshot to find the composer 3. Click "Start a post" button to open the post composer modal ### Phase 2: Write Post Text (Playwright) 4. Take a snapshot of the composer modal 5. Type the post text into the composer text area 6. Verify text appears correctly ### Phase 3: Upload Video (macOS-use) 7. Get Chrome PID: ```bash pgrep -x "Google Chrome" ``` 8. **Do NOT close Playwright** — LinkedIn works without closing it 9. Use `click_and_traverse` on the **"Add media"** button (camera/image icon in composer toolbar) - Find it in the Playwright snapshot first to identify its position - Or grep the macOS-use traversal for "Add media" or the media icon 10. Wait for native file dialog (AXSheet) to appear 11. Press `Cmd+Shift+G` via `press_key_and_traverse` to open "Go to folder" 12. Type the absolute video file path via `type_and_traverse` 13. Press `Return` via `press_key_and_traverse` 14. Grep traversal for `"Open"` button (AXButton near bottom, y > 1500) 15. Click "Open" via `click_and_traverse` ### Phase 4: Post (macOS-use) 16. **Wait for video upload** — LinkedIn shows upload progress. Wait for it to complete. 17. LinkedIn shows a video editing/trimming step — click **"Next"** to skip it 18. Click **"Post"** button 19. **Dismiss boost offer** — LinkedIn may show a "Boost this post" dialog. Dismiss it by clicking "Got it" or the X button. ## Troubleshooting - **"Add media" not found**: Look for camera icon or image icon in the composer toolbar. Try snapshot/traversal to locate it. - **File dialog didn't open**: Playwright may have intercepted it. Try closing Playwright (`browser_close`), then clicking via macOS-use. - **Upload stuck**: Large videos take time. Wait 30-60 seconds and check traversal for progress indicators. - **"Next" button not appearing**: The video may still be processing. Wait and refresh traversal. - **Boost dialog blocking**: After posting, LinkedIn often shows a boost promotion. Dismiss it before confirming success.
