LinkedIn Scraper
Setup
Read scrapecreators-api first. Execute every operation below through the runtime it selects: the GooseWorks MCP tool in terminal-free clients, the GooseWorks CLI in a local terminal, or the direct API with the user's own key. Never assume a shell is available.
Scrape public LinkedIn data including profiles, company pages, and posts.
When to Use
- User asks about someone's LinkedIn profile
- User wants company information from LinkedIn
- Research on a professional or company
How It Works
Uses the ScrapeCreators API through its direct GooseWorks proxy.
Note: Scrape Creators LinkedIn endpoints use full LinkedIn URLs as the query parameter (not usernames).

Render Street Interview
Build a vox-pop street interview video ad. An interviewer with a handheld mic asks passers-by one question about the brand's product, they give blunt wrong guesses, one gives the real answer, and the cut lands on a branded end card. Generates the takes through the GooseWorks fal proxy (Seedance 2.0 with native voice), then grades, re-cuts, captions and gates them locally. Use for the street-interview format.
Write Video Ad Script
Write the words of a short-form video ad (voiceover, dialogue, chat bubbles, on-screen lines) the way performance creative teams do instead of from a blank page. Builds the script from the buyers' own words, the beat sheet of an ad that already works and three deliberately different angles, filters them with a rule check and a second non-Claude model, and takes the strongest into the review with the other two as one-line swaps. Use it in every video ad run before any paid step, and whenever the user asks to write, rewrite or improve a video ad script or says a script sounds generic or AI-written.
