LinkedIn network → tagged briefing pipeline lands end-to-end; augment-it's network-first sibling-flow gets named
A real consulting engagement walked in asking for a curated NYC dinner list, and the org-first frame augment-it has been living in didn't fit. Tonight: ~250 LinkedIn profiles captured via Crawlbase land as flat CSV + full-shape JSONL (skeletons flagged for retry, no fields silently dropped), ~200 LinkedIn 'Save to PDF' downloads get slug-renamed via pdftotext extraction, a browser snippet writes a forward manifest so we never need to reconcile by hand again, the deep-profile DOM extractor catches up to LinkedIn's late-2025 hashed-class layout (pronouns / followers / connections / website / cover photo / robust headline classifier), and three composition scripts join everything into a tag-grouped markdown briefing and a brand-themed HTML export. The exploration sitting alongside the code names what just happened structurally: org-first and people-first are two pivots over the same org↔people join, and a canonical layer (the LinkedIn pipeline) belongs cleanly separated from a proprietary layer (per-engagement commentary). Sub-scale (~30K enumerable venture entities) is the differentiator the big CRMs structurally can't occupy.
