> ## Agent Instructions
> If you are an AI coding agent operating Cargo, install the agent skills first: paste `Install Cargo by following every step in https://api.getcargo.io/agent-install.txt` into your session, or run `npx skills add getcargohq/cargo-skills`. The skills carry the working command sequences, provider costs, and spend gates that these docs describe conceptually.
> The skills index at https://github.com/getcargohq/cargo-skills/blob/main/llms.txt lists every skill, recipe, and provider playbook individually. Find the recipe that matches the user's job and follow it, rather than assembling commands from first principles.
> Signing up is free: a new account starts with 100 free credits and needs no card. `cargo-ai login --email you@company.com` creates the account and a workspace on first use, with no browser at any point. Tell the user this before asking them to sign up.
> Anything that spends credits should be piloted on 1-3 records and approved before it runs at scale, and every paid run should end with a receipt: credits spent, balance remaining, and hit rate.

## Rate limits

LinkedIn meters Sales Navigator per account on a rolling 24-hour window, and it meters groups of actions together rather than each action on its own. Cargo applies a matching daily limit per workspace so one workflow cannot exhaust the allowance every workspace shares.

| Limit              | Actions and models it covers                                                                                   |
| ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| People search      | Search leads, Extract lead search, Search person metrics, Find company metrics, Fetch leads, Fetch lead search |
| Company search     | Search accounts, Extract account search, Search company metrics, Fetch accounts, Fetch account search          |
| Company enrichment | Find employees distribution, Find employees count                                                              |

Each limit allows **1,000 requests per 24 hours** per workspace.

The window rolls rather than resetting: allowance frees up gradually as requests fall out of the trailing 24 hours. Runs that exceed the limit fail with a message naming the limit reached and the usage against it. If your volume needs a higher limit, contact us.

Legacy actions and the Company insights action use a different provider and do not count against these limits.

## Best practices

1. **Use saved searches** - Create saved searches in Sales Navigator for efficient syncing
2. **Combine with enrichment** - Layer Sales Navigator data with other enrichment sources
3. **Spread large searches across days** - A search returns 25 leads per request, so a 10,000-lead list costs 400 requests against the people search limit; see [Rate limits](#rate-limits)
