little question

I read this and im not shure if it is correct:

My boss yelled at me!
I would have told her not to do it!
If these sentences are said by two different people they are correct.
Person A: My boss yelled at me!
Person B: I would have told/asked her not to (do it).

Person B is telling A that, if they were in that situation, they would have told their boss that it is not appropriate to shout at them like that.
It's the conditional past. I would have (past conditional) told her not to.

If it is the same person saying both sentences it's wrong. It should be "I should have told her not to". Meaning, I wish that I had told her not yell at me.

I can say to: Can I also say:
I would have told her that she not do it. (No. See above)


somebody Can someone help me, please? Thanks.

Your question is a little hard to understand, but if I understand you correctly, your answer should be: "I should have told her not to do that"
