+
+For external services that do not provide a sanctioned public API (for example: LinkedIn), AI‑Me will perform data ingestion only via a human-in-the-loop browser automation process that requires interactive user authentication. Extracted content must be limited to publicly-visible information, reviewed by the human operator for accuracy and privacy before ingestion, and must never be collected via third-party services that require users to share credentials or that perform scraping on a user's behalf.

+## Setting Up the Pre-Commit Hook
+
+A Git pre-commit hook automatically clears all Jupyter notebook outputs before committing. This keeps the repository clean and reduces diff noise by preventing output changes from cluttering commits.
+
+### Installation
+
+#### Option 1: Automated Installation (Recommended)
+
+After cloning the repository, run:
+
+```bash
+cd ai-me
+cp .git/hooks/pre-commit.sample .git/hooks/pre-commit
+chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-commit
+```
+
+Then create the hook script:
+
+```bash
+cat > .git/hooks/pre-commit << 'EOF'
+#!/bin/bash
+# Pre-commit hook to clear Jupyter notebook outputs
+
+# Find all staged .ipynb files
+notebooks=$(git diff --cached --name-only --diff-filter=ACM | grep '\.ipynb$')
+
+if [ -n "$notebooks" ]; then
+    echo "Clearing outputs from notebooks..."
+    for notebook in $notebooks; do
+        if [ -f "$notebook" ]; then
+            echo "  Processing: $notebook"
+            # Clear outputs using Python directly (no jupyter dependency needed)
+            python3 -c "
+import json
+
+notebook_path = '$notebook'
+
+# Read the notebook
+with open(notebook_path, 'r', encoding='utf-8') as f:
+    nb = json.load(f)
+
+# Clear outputs from all cells
+for cell in nb.get('cells', []):
+    if cell['cell_type'] == 'code':
+        cell['outputs'] = []
+        cell['execution_count'] = None
+
+# Write back the cleaned notebook
+with open(notebook_path, 'w', encoding='utf-8') as f:
+    json.dump(nb, f, indent=1, ensure_ascii=False)
+    f.write('\n')
+"
+            # Re-stage the cleaned notebook
+            git add "$notebook"
+        fi
+    done
+    echo "✓ Notebook outputs cleared"
+fi
+
+exit 0
+EOF
+chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-commit
+```
 
-See this guide on setting up gpg keys:
+#### Option 2: Manual Installation
 
-https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/managing-commit-signature-verification/generating-a-new-gpg-key
+1. Navigate to your git hooks directory:
+   ```bash
+   cd .git/hooks
+   ```
+
+2. Create a new file called `pre-commit`:
+   ```bash
+   touch pre-commit
+   chmod +x pre-commit
+   ```
+
+3. Open the file in your editor and paste the script above (starting with `#!/bin/bash`).
+
+### Verification
+
+To verify the hook is working, make a change to a notebook and stage it:
+
+```bash
+git add src/notebooks/experiments.ipynb
+git commit -m "Test notebook commit"
+```
+
+You should see output like:
+```
+Clearing outputs from notebooks...
+  Processing: src/notebooks/experiments.ipynb
+✓ Notebook outputs cleared
+```
 
+**Note**: A Git pre-commit hook is installed at `.git/hooks/pre-commit` that automatically clears all notebook outputs before committing.

+Example: https://huggingface.co/spaces/byoung-hf/ben-bot
 
-### Core Design
-
-**Data Pipeline** → **Agent System Set Up** → **Chat Interface**
-
-1. **Data Pipeline** (`src/data.py`)
-   - Loads markdown from local `docs/` and public GitHub repos
-   - Chunks with LangChain, embeds with HuggingFace sentence-transformers
-   - Stores in ephemeral ChromaDB vectorstore
-
-2. **Agent System** (`src/agent.py`)
-   - Primary agent personifies a real person using RAG
-   - Queries vectorstore via async `get_local_info` tool
-   - Uses Groq API (`openai/openai/gpt-oss-120b`) for LLM inference
-   - OpenAI API for tracing/debugging only
-
-3. **UI Layer** (`src/app.py`)
-   - Simple chat interface streams responses
-   - Async-first architecture throughout

+If you want to experiment with building your own agentic self, clone the repo and follow the steps below.
 
-- **Python 3.12** with `uv` for dependency management
-- **OpenAI Agents SDK** for agentic framework
-- **LangChain** for document loading/chunking only
-- **ChromaDB** with ephemeral in-memory storage

-## Design Principles
+## Architecture and Design Overview
 
-1. **Decoupled Architecture**: Config handles sources, DataManager handles pipeline, app orchestrates
-2. **Smart Defaults**: Minimal configuration required - most params have sensible defaults
-3. **Async-First**: All agent operations are async for responsive UI
-4. **Ephemeral Storage**: Vectorstore rebuilt on each restart (fast, simple, stateless)
-5. **Type Safety**: Pydantic models with validation throughout
-6. **Development/Production Parity**: Same DataManager used in notebooks and production app
+All of our architecture and design thinking can be found in our [constitution](/.specify/memory/constitution.md) and [ADRs](/architecture/adrs/)

+- **Data Sources**: The default for local development is the `docs/local-testing` folder. If you want your production app to access this content post deploy, it must be pushed to a public GitHub repo until we support private repo document loading for RAG.
 - **Model Choice**: Groq's `gpt-oss-120b` provides good quality with ultra-fast inference. If you change the model, be aware that tool calling may degrade which can lead to runtime errors.
 - **Docker in Docker**: A prior version of this app had the Docker command built into the container. Because the GitHub MCP server was moved from `docker` to `npx`, the CLI is no longer included in the [Dockerfile](Dockerfile). However, the socket mount in [docker-compose](docker-compose.yaml) was left as we may revisit Docker MCP servers in the future. We will never support a pure docker-in-docker setup, but socket mounting may still be an option.
-- **The Agent does not have memory!**: This was an intentional design decision until multithreaded operations can be supported/tested on HF.

+# ADR-001: Human-in-the-Loop Browser Automation for Third-Party Data Ingestion
+
+**Status**: Accepted
+
+**Date**: 2025-10-24
+
+## Context
+
+External services like LinkedIn do not provide sanctioned public APIs for personal profile data extraction. Previous research evaluated three integration approaches:
+1. **Programmatic MCP/API integrations** — No official LinkedIn MCP server exists; third-party options are immature or unavailable
+2. **Third-party data-gathering services** (Apify, Anysite) — Require sharing user credentials, violate Terms of Service, pose security and privacy risks
+3. **Human-in-the-loop browser automation** — Respects ToS, maintains user control, verifies data accuracy and privacy before ingestion
+
+## Decision
+
+We will implement data ingestion for LinkedIn and other services without sanctioned public APIs exclusively through **human-in-the-loop browser automation** (Playwright). This approach:
+- Requires the user to authenticate interactively (human provides credentials directly to LinkedIn, not to our tool)
+- Extracts only publicly-visible profile content (profile, experience, education, skills, recommendations, connections, activity)
+- Scope is limited to the user that manually logs in
+- Mandates human review of all extracted content for accuracy and privacy compliance before ingestion into markdown documentation
+- Explicitly prohibits use of third-party credential-sharing services that scrape on a user's behalf
+
+This policy applies retroactively to LinkedIn and prospectively to any future external services lacking a publicly available API.
+
+## Consequences
+
+**Positive:**
+- Maintains compliance with LinkedIn Terms of Service
+- Protects user security (credentials never shared with third parties)
+- Enables human verification of data accuracy and privacy
+- Establishes reusable pattern for similar external data sources
+- Respects user agency and control over their data
+
+**Negative:**
+- Requires user manual effort (browser interaction, file review)
+- Tool development complexity (Playwright orchestration, markdown formatting)
+- Cannot be fully automated or scheduled
+- Slower than direct API access (if available)
+
+## Compliance
+
+This decision instantiates Constitution Principle X (External Data Integration Policy) and establishes binding guidance for all future data ingestion tools.

+# Clarification Session Report: LinkedIn Profile Extractor Tool
+
+**Date**: October 24, 2025  
+**Feature**: LinkedIn Profile Data Extractor (Spec 002)  
+**Status**: ✅ **COMPLETE**
+
+---
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+Clarification session completed with **5 critical questions answered**. All high-impact ambiguities resolved. New feature spec created (`specs/002-linkedin-profile-extractor/spec.md`) with clear design decisions and ready for planning phase.
+
+---
+
+## Questions Asked & Answered
+
+### Question 1: Feature Scope & Organization
+**Answer**: A — Create separate spec (`specs/002-linkedin-profile-extractor/spec.md`)
+
+**Rationale**: Cleanly separates concerns from main Personified AI Agent (spec 001), allows independent versioning and task tracking, prevents scope creep.
+
+---
+
+### Question 2: Authentication Mechanism
+**Answer**: A with Playwright — Browser automation with manual LinkedIn login
+
+**Rationale**: Respects LinkedIn ToS, gives users full control, avoids API restrictions, captures full LinkedIn UI experience. Playwright chosen for cross-platform support and reliability.
+
+---
+
+### Question 3: Data Extraction Scope
+**Answer**: C — Full profile extraction (connections, endorsements, activity) with human review gate
+
+**Context**: User clarified that human review allows verification of privacy/legal concerns, and all extracted data is publicly available anyway.
+
+**Rationale**: Maximum value; human review ensures accuracy and compliance. Users decide what to share with AI agent.
+
+---
+
+### Question 4: Markdown Output Structure
+**Answer**: B — Hierarchical markdown by section (Profile.md, Experience.md, Education.md, Skills.md, Recommendations.md, Connections.md, Activity.md)
+
+**Rationale**: Mirrors LinkedIn's natural information architecture, modular for easy editing/exclusion, integrates seamlessly with existing RAG pipeline.
+
+---
+
+### Question 5: Tool Delivery & Integration
+**Answer**: A — Standalone Python CLI tool; users run locally, review output, manually upload
+
+**Rationale**: Full user control over data, respects privacy, simple integration with existing workflow, avoids complicating main app deployment.
+
+---

+
+**Document**: Integration roadmap between Spec 002 (LinkedIn Extractor) and Spec 001 (Personified AI Agent)  
+**Date**: October 24, 2025  
+**Status**: Reference Documentation
+
+---
+
+## High-Level Workflow
+
+```

+ Agent Response: [Sourced from LinkedIn profile markdown]
+```
+
+---
+
+## Data Flow
+
+### Spec 002 Output Format
+
+LinkedIn Extractor produces:
+
+```
+linkedin-profile/
+├── extraction_report.json
+├── Profile.md               # Name, headline, location, about
+├── Experience.md            # Job history
+├── Education.md             # Schools, degrees
+├── Skills.md                # Skills + endorsements
+├── Recommendations.md       # Recommendations
+├── Connections.md           # Connections list
+└── Activity.md              # Posts, articles
+```
+
+### Spec 001 Input Format
+
+Personified AI Agent expects:
+
+- Markdown files in `docs/` directory (local) or GitHub repository (remote)
+- Files organized by topic/section (exactly what Spec 002 produces)
+- Metadata: filename, creation date, source (included in extraction_report.json)
+- Markdown syntax: valid UTF-8, proper heading hierarchy
+
+**Result**: Perfect format compatibility. No transformation needed.
+
+---
+
+## Integration Steps
+
+### Step 1: Extract LinkedIn Data (Spec 002)
+
+```bash
+cd ~/projects/ai-me
+python -m linkedin_extractor extract --output-dir ./linkedin-profile
+# User logs in manually → files generated → review files
+```
+
+**Output**: 7 markdown files + extraction_report.json in `./linkedin-profile/`
+
+---
+
+### Step 2: Review & Validate
+
+User reviews files locally, edits for privacy/accuracy:
+
+```bash
+# Open in editor
+code ./linkedin-profile/
+
+# Edit files as needed, delete sensitive info, verify accuracy
+# Example edits:
+# - Remove specific company names if desired
+# - Condense connections list to key contacts
+# - Remove draft posts or old activity
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 3: Upload to Documentation Repository
+
+User uploads files to their documentation repo (e.g., `byoung/me`):
+
+```bash
+cd ~/repos/byoung-me  # (or wherever your docs repo is)
+
+# Copy or move reviewed files
+cp -r ~/projects/ai-me/linkedin-profile/*.md ./
+
+# Commit and push
+git add *.md
+git commit -m "Update LinkedIn profile: $(date +%Y-%m-%d)"
+git push origin main
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 4: Configure AI-Me to Ingest
+
+Update `.env` to include LinkedIn profile repo:
+
+```bash
+# .env
+GITHUB_REPOS=byoung/me,byoung/other-docs  # Add your repo
+GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN=ghp_xxxxx
+```
+
+Or, if files are already in local `docs/` directory:
+
+```bash
+# Just move files to docs/
+cp ~/linkedin-profile/*.md ./docs/
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 5: Restart AI-Me
+
+AI-Me's `DataManager` will reload documents on next startup:
+
+```bash
+# If running locally:
+python -m gradio src/app.py
+
+# If deployed on Spaces, trigger redeploy or restart
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 6: Verify Integration
+
+Test that agent has access to LinkedIn profile data:
+
+**Test Chat**:
+- User: "Tell me about your work experience"
+- Agent Response: [Cites Experience.md from LinkedIn extractor]
+
+**Verification**:
+- Agent uses first-person ("I worked at...")
+- Agent cites specific companies/dates from LinkedIn profile
+- Agent maintains authentic voice
+
+---
+
+## Data Mapping: LinkedIn → Markdown → Agent
+
+| LinkedIn Source | Markdown File | Agent Uses For | Example Question |
+|-----------------|---------------|----------------|------------------|
+| Profile section | Profile.md | Personalization, headline context | "What's your professional background?" |
+| Experience | Experience.md | Job history, expertise domains | "Tell me about your experience with X" |
+| Education | Education.md | Academic background, credentials | "Where did you study?" |
+| Skills + Endorsements | Skills.md | Domain expertise ranking | "What are your top skills?" |
+| Recommendations | Recommendations.md | Social proof, validation | "What do others say about you?" |
+| Connections | Connections.md | Network context, collaboration history | "Tell me about your network" |
+| Activity/Posts | Activity.md | Recent thinking, current interests | "What are you focused on lately?" |
+
+---
+
+## File Format Examples
+
+### Profile.md (from Spec 002 → consumed by Spec 001)
+
+```markdown
+# LinkedIn Profile
+
+**Name**: Ben Young  
+**Headline**: AI Agent Architect | Full-Stack Engineer  
+**Location**: San Francisco, CA  
+
+## Summary
+
+Experienced AI/ML engineer with 10+ years building production systems...
+
+[Rest of profile]
+```
+
+**Agent uses**: First-person synthesis of profile summary in responses
+
+---
+
+### Experience.md (from Spec 002 → consumed by Spec 001)
+
+```markdown
+# Experience
+
+## AI Agent Architect @ TechCorp (2023-2025)
+- Led design of autonomous agent systems
+- Built RAG pipeline with 99.9% uptime
+- Mentored 5 engineers on AI architecture
+
+## Senior Engineer @ StartupXYZ (2020-2023)
+- ...
+```
+
+**Agent uses**: Specific job responsibilities when answering experience questions
+
+---
+
+## Configuration Examples
+
+### For GitHub-Based Ingestion
+
+```bash
+# .env
+GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN=ghp_xxxxxxxxxxxxx
+GITHUB_REPOS=byoung/me,byoung/projects
+
+# AI-Me will load:
+# - https://github.com/byoung/me/blob/main/*.md
+# - https://github.com/byoung/projects/blob/main/*.md
+```
+
+Then upload LinkedIn profile markdown to `byoung/me` repo:
+
+```bash
+# Repository structure
+byoung/me/
+├── Profile.md          # from LinkedIn extractor
+├── Experience.md       # from LinkedIn extractor
+├── Education.md        # from LinkedIn extractor
+├── resume.md           # manual or pre-existing
+├── projects.md         # manual
+└── README.md
+```
+
+---
+
+### For Local File Ingestion
+
+```bash
+# .env (no GitHub token needed)
+GITHUB_REPOS=""  # empty, or omit
+
+# Move LinkedIn profile files to local docs/
+cp ~/linkedin-profile/*.md ~/projects/ai-me/docs/
+
+# Restart AI-Me
+# DataManager will load from docs/ automatically
+```
+
+---
+
+## Data Privacy & Consent
+
+### What Users Control
+
+1. **Extraction**: User manually logs into LinkedIn (no credentials stored)
+2. **Review**: User reviews generated markdown before upload
+3. **Filtering**: User can delete/edit sensitive information in markdown
+4. **Upload**: User chooses where to upload (GitHub public repo, local, etc.)
+5. **Sharing**: User decides whether to use data with AI agent
+
+### What's Extracted
+
+Only **publicly visible** LinkedIn data:
+- Profile summary (as shown on profile page)
+- Published experience/jobs
+- Education (if public)
+- Skills (if public)
+- Recommendations (if public)
+- Connections names/titles (if publicly shown)
+- Published posts/activity (if public)
+
+### Privacy Best Practices
+
+1. Review markdown files before upload
+2. Remove sensitive information (specific salary, internal projects, etc.)
+3. Edit connections list if desired (Spec 002 allows truncation)
+4. Use private GitHub repo if prefer (not shared publicly)
+5. Set `GITHUB_REPOS` to private repo URL in AI-Me config
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting Integration
+
+### Problem: Agent doesn't cite LinkedIn data
+
+**Diagnosis**:
+1. Verify markdown files uploaded to GitHub repo
+2. Verify GitHub repo URL is in `GITHUB_REPOS` env var
+3. Verify `GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN` is set
+4. Restart AI-Me app
+5. Check logs: `DataManager.load_remote_documents()` should show documents loaded
+
+**Solution**:
+```bash
+# Test data loading
+python -c "from src.data import DataManager; 
+dm = DataManager(); 
+docs = dm.process_documents(); 
+print(f'Loaded {len(docs)} documents')"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Problem: LinkedIn markdown syntax errors
+
+**Diagnosis**:
+1. Validate markdown: `markdown-lint *.md`
+2. Check for special characters, emojis, Unicode issues
+
+**Solution**:
+- Spec 002 includes Unicode normalization (Constitution IX)
+- User should review markdown files before upload
+- Re-run extraction if needed
+
+---
+
+### Problem: Data accuracy issues in agent responses
+
+**Diagnosis**:
+1. Verify extracted data matches LinkedIn profile
+2. Verify markdown reflects accurate representation of LinkedIn
+3. Check vector search is retrieving correct documents
+
+**Solution**:
+- User reviews extracted markdown before upload
+- Manual editing of markdown files allowed
+- Test specific queries: "What company did you work at?" → should cite Experience.md
+
+---
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+### Phase B: Spec 002 Enhancements
+
+- Scheduled extraction (sync profile changes monthly)
+- Data versioning (track profile evolution)
+- Diff report (what changed since last extraction)
+- LinkedIn API integration (if ToS allows in future)
+
+### Phase B: Spec 001 Integration Enhancements
+
+- Automatic GitHub sync (reload documents on push webhook)
+- LinkedIn data freshness indicator ("Profile data from X days ago")
+- Dedicated LinkedIn context in agent prompt
+- LinkedIn-specific queries: "Show me recent posts" → cite Activity.md
+
+### Joint Enhancement: Documentation Sync Tool
+
+- Tool to automatically sync markdown updates to GitHub
+- Dashboard showing which LinkedIn data is in agent's knowledge base
+- User audit trail: "Last synced: date"
+
+---
+
+## Success Criteria for Integration
+
+✅ **Extraction**: LinkedIn data → markdown files ≥90% accuracy  
+✅ **Review**: User can edit files before upload  
+✅ **Upload**: Files accessible to AI-Me DataManager  
+✅ **Retrieval**: Agent retrieves correct LinkedIn data for queries  
+✅ **Response**: Agent cites LinkedIn profile in first-person responses  
+✅ **Accuracy**: Sample responses match LinkedIn source data (100%)
+

+- Mirrors LinkedIn's natural information structure
+- Modular: user can include/exclude files as needed
+- Perfect compatibility with existing RAG pipeline
+
+### 5. **Standalone CLI Tool** ✅
+- Separate from main Gradio app
+- Python 3.12 + uv (matches project standards)
+- Local execution (no credentials transmitted)
+- Manual upload workflow (user controls upload)
+- Respects user privacy & data ownership
+
+---
+
+## Workflow: User Perspective
+
+```
+1. User runs: python -m linkedin_extractor extract --output-dir ./linkedin-profile
+2. Browser opens; user logs into LinkedIn manually
+3. Tool extracts profile → Experience → Education → Skills → etc.
+4. 7 markdown files generated: Profile.md, Experience.md, ...
+5. User reviews files in text editor; edits for privacy/accuracy
+6. User uploads files to their GitHub repo (byoung/me or similar)
+7. User configures AI-Me: GITHUB_REPOS=byoung/me
+8. AI-Me loads files via RAG
+9. Next conversation uses LinkedIn profile data:
+   - User: "Tell me about your work experience"
+   - Agent: "I've worked at [companies from Experience.md]..."
+```
+
+---
+
+## What's Next

+- Q: What LinkedIn data to extract? → A: Full profile (connections, endorsements, activity feed) with human review gate for privacy/legal before upload
+- Q: What markdown output structure? → A: Hierarchical by section (Profile.md, Experience.md, Education.md, Skills.md, Recommendations.md, Connections.md, Activity.md)
+- Q: How is tool delivered and integrated? → A: Standalone Python CLI tool; users run locally, review output, manually upload to GitHub repo
+
+## Overview & Context
+
+### Problem Statement
+
+Users who want to create an AI agent representing themselves (via the Personified AI Agent, spec 001) need accurate, current profile data from LinkedIn. Currently, they must manually create markdown documentation of their professional background. This tool automates the extraction of LinkedIn profile data into markdown files, which users can review for accuracy and privacy, then upload to their documentation repository for RAG ingestion.
+
+### Solution Overview
+
+**LinkedIn Profile Data Extractor** is a standalone Python CLI tool that:
+1. Opens a Playwright browser and navigates to LinkedIn
+2. Requires manual user login (human-in-the-loop for authentication and consent)
+3. Automatically navigates LinkedIn sections (Profile, Experience, Education, Skills, Recommendations, Connections, Activity)
+4. Extracts structured data from each section
+5. Converts data to hierarchical markdown files
+6. Outputs files to a local directory for user review
+7. User reviews files for accuracy and privacy, then manually uploads to their documentation repository
+
+### Key Differentiators
+
+- **Privacy-First**: Browser-based extraction respects LinkedIn ToS; human review gate ensures user control over what data is shared
+- **No API Complexity**: Avoids LinkedIn API authentication, approval workflows, and data restrictions
+- **User-Controlled**: Users decide what to include/exclude before uploading
+- **Integrates with RAG**: Output markdown files are designed for ingestion by the Personified AI Agent
+- **Standalone**: Separate tool; doesn't complicate main AI-Me application
+
+### Target Users
+
+- Individuals creating an AI agent representing themselves
+- Users who want to keep profile data current with minimal manual effort
+- Users who prefer reviewing data before sharing with AI systems
+

+
+## User Scenarios & Testing *(mandatory)*
+
+### User Story 1 - Extract LinkedIn Profile to Markdown (Priority: P1)
+
+A user runs the CLI tool, authenticates with LinkedIn, and extracts their profile data into markdown files. The tool creates organized, well-structured markdown files that accurately represent their LinkedIn profile.
+
+**Why this priority**: Core value proposition—tool must successfully extract LinkedIn data without manual intervention after login.
+
+**Independent Test**: Can be fully tested by running the tool, logging in, navigating profile extraction, and verifying output markdown files match LinkedIn source data.
+
+**Acceptance Scenarios**:
+
+1. **Given** a user runs `python -m linkedin_extractor extract --output-dir ./profile-data`, **When** the tool opens a browser and waits for login, **Then** the user can complete LinkedIn authentication manually
+2. **Given** the user is logged into LinkedIn, **When** the tool navigates profile sections, **Then** it successfully extracts profile data without crashes or incomplete captures
+3. **Given** extraction completes, **When** the tool outputs markdown files to the specified directory, **Then** files are well-formatted and match LinkedIn source content
+4. **Given** output files exist, **When** the user reviews them, **Then** the data is accurate, complete, and useful for RAG ingestion
+
+---
+
+### User Story 2 - Review & Validate Extracted Data (Priority: P1)
+
+User reviews the generated markdown files for accuracy and privacy concerns, ensuring the data is suitable for uploading to their documentation repository.
+
+**Why this priority**: Human-in-the-loop validation ensures accuracy and prevents unintended data sharing.
+
+**Independent Test**: Can be fully tested by reviewing output files and verifying they match LinkedIn source and contain no unexpected data.
+
+**Acceptance Scenarios**:
+
+1. **Given** markdown files are extracted, **When** the user reviews them, **Then** all sections are present and readable
+2. **Given** the user finds inaccurate or sensitive data, **When** they can easily edit the markdown files, **Then** they can remove/modify entries before upload
+3. **Given** files are validated, **When** the user prepares to upload, **Then** they understand exactly what data will be shared with their AI agent
+
+---
+
+### User Story 3 - Upload Reviewed Files to Documentation Repository (Priority: P2)
+
+User uploads the reviewed and validated markdown files to their documentation repository (e.g., `byoung/me` GitHub repo), making them available for RAG ingestion by the Personified AI Agent.
+
+**Why this priority**: Completes the workflow; enables RAG ingestion and agent knowledge base updates.
+
+**Independent Test**: Can be fully tested by uploading files to a test repository and verifying they're accessible for RAG pipeline ingestion.
+
+**Acceptance Scenarios**:
+
+1. **Given** validated markdown files exist locally, **When** the user uploads them to their documentation repository, **Then** they're stored in a location where the RAG pipeline can find them
+2. **Given** files are uploaded, **When** the Personified AI Agent's DataManager loads documents, **Then** the LinkedIn profile data is available for retrieval
+
+---
+

+
+## Data Model
+
+### Markdown Output Structure
+
+Each extraction session generates the following files in the output directory:
+
+```
+output_dir/
+├── extraction_report.json          # Metadata: extraction timestamp, session info, data completeness
+├── Profile.md                      # Profile summary, headline, location, about, photo
+├── Experience.md                   # Job history with dates, companies, descriptions
+├── Education.md                    # Schools, degrees, fields of study, graduation dates
+├── Skills.md                       # Skills list with endorsement counts
+├── Recommendations.md              # Recommendations with recommender info and text
+├── Connections.md                  # Connections list (names, titles, companies)
+└── Activity.md                     # Recent posts, comments, articles
+```
+
+### File Format Example (Profile.md)
+
+```markdown
+# LinkedIn Profile
+
+**Extracted**: 2025-10-24 14:30:00 UTC  
+**Source**: https://www.linkedin.com/in/byoung/  
+**Status**: Complete
+
+## Summary
+
+- **Name**: Ben Young
+- **Headline**: AI Agent Architect | Full-Stack Engineer
+- **Location**: San Francisco, CA
+- **Open to Work**: Yes (seeking AI/ML roles)
+
+## About
+
+[Profile summary text...]
+
+## Profile Photo
+
+[URL to profile photo if publicly available]
+```
+
+---
+
+## Technical Constraints & Architecture
+
+### Technology Stack
+
+- **Language**: Python 3.12+ (matching AI-Me project standards via `uv`)
+- **Browser Automation**: Playwright (cross-platform, supports multiple browsers, respects ToS)
+- **Package Manager**: `uv` (matches AI-Me project standards)
+- **Output Format**: Markdown files + JSON metadata
+- **Delivery**: Standalone CLI tool (separate from main Gradio app)
+- **Execution Environment**: User's local machine (not cloud-deployed)
+
+### Implementation Notes
+
+1. **Browser-Based Extraction**: Uses Playwright to automate browser navigation, respecting LinkedIn ToS by requiring manual login
+2. **No API Integration**: Avoids LinkedIn API authentication complexity and approval requirements
+3. **Human-in-the-Loop**: User must manually authenticate and consent to extraction before proceeding
+4. **Local Execution**: All extraction happens on user's machine; no credentials or data transmitted externally
+5. **Manual Upload**: Users manually upload reviewed files to their GitHub repo (no automated Git push)
+6. **RAG Integration**: Output markdown follows existing document structure for seamless RAG ingestion by Personified AI Agent
+
+### Out of Scope
+
+- Automated scheduled extraction (GitHub Actions, webhooks, cron jobs) — future enhancement
+- Cloud-based execution or deployment
+- Integration with main Gradio app (separate standalone tool)
+- LinkedIn API integration (browser-based extraction only)
+- Encrypted credential storage (user responsible for LinkedIn security)
+- Multi-user or SaaS deployment
+
+---
+
+## Integration with Personified AI Agent (Spec 001)
+
+### Workflow
+
+1. **Extract**: User runs LinkedIn extractor CLI → generates markdown files
+2. **Review**: User reviews files locally, edits for privacy/accuracy
+3. **Upload**: User uploads files to their documentation repository (e.g., `byoung/me`)
+4. **Ingest**: Personified AI Agent's `DataManager` loads files via GitHub (if `GITHUB_REPOS` includes the repo)
+5. **Use**: Agent has access to LinkedIn profile data for better context and responses
+
+### Documentation Structure Compatibility
+
+LinkedIn extractor output (Profile.md, Experience.md, etc.) follows the same markdown document structure expected by the Personified AI Agent's RAG pipeline. No additional transformation needed.
+
+---
+
+## Deployment & Usage
+
+### Installation
+
+```bash
+# Clone repo (or install from package)
+git clone https://github.com/byoung/ai-me.git
+cd ai-me
+
+# Install dependencies
+uv sync
+
+# Run extractor
+python -m linkedin_extractor extract --output-dir ./linkedin-profile
+```
+
