With the right note, 70% and above. This skill writes that note, and when the person came from your comments, it quotes what they actually said. ## Why use it Generic invites (I came across your profile, I would love to learn from you) are ignored because they could have been sent to anyone. The note that works references one thing only the recipient would recognize : their post, their comment under yours, the event you both attended. This skill adapts to the context and keeps every option under LinkedIn's 300-character cut. ## What it does You name the person and the context (cold, post-comment, post-event, post-engagement, mutual contact). For people who commented on your posts, it pulls their exact comment. It returns three ranked options under 300 characters, when to send, and what to do when they accept. ## What you get - Three invite notes under 300 characters, ranked by acceptance odds - The specific reference each note points at - Send timing and the no-pitch follow-up plan ## Why the Taplio MCP makes it better A skill on its own is a clever prompt working from memory. Connected to the Taplio MCP, the same skill runs on your real account and real data, which is what turns a generic answer into one built for you. Here is what each function adds: - **`get_me`** gives your positioning, tone and language so the note sounds like you. - **`find_posts_to_comment`** lists your recent posts so the skill can find who engaged with them. - **`find_comments_to_reply`** returns the person's exact comment, headline and profile when they commented on your post, which becomes the reference in the note. - **`list_comment_drafts`** recalls what you wrote on their post when the context is a comment exchange you started. - **`search_inspiration`** finds something the person published recently for a cold note with a real reference. Power up with Taplio In the Taplio app, Connection Requests turns engagers into invites in one click : everyone who commented on or liked the user's posts appears as a warm lead with a tailored note, sent from Taplio with daily limits respected.
