None of the board CLIs set a fetch timeout, and the retry loops react only to HTTP status codes, not to a connection that is accepted then never responds (black-holed TCP, hung TLS, stalled proxy) - so await fetch(...) never settles and the command hangs with no output and no exit. freehire's helper even documented a fast-degrade contract its try/catch didn't deliver on a mid-flight stall. Adds signal: AbortSignal.timeout(15000) to every fetch across all six CLIs, with network-free tests asserting the signal is present on each request wrapper. By @thejesh23. Verified: 8 timeout tests pass locally with fetch stubbed (no network), and would fail on the pre-fix code. Closes #196
linkedin-cli
CLI for searching jobs on LinkedIn's public job listings, for any country/region (and remote), across any sector.
Data source: LinkedIn jobs-guest endpoints (seeMoreJobPostings/search and jobPosting/<id>).
Authentication: None required.
Dependencies: None (plain bun + fetch). bun install is optional and only pulls dev type defs.
Personal use only. This uses LinkedIn's public job pages; automated access is against LinkedIn's Terms of Service. Keep volume low, don't use it commercially or for bulk data collection, and run it on your own responsibility.
Installation
cd .agents/skills/linkedin-search/cli
bun install # optional — only installs TypeScript dev types
The CLI runs without any install because it has zero runtime dependencies.
