backlink-analyzer

A search-engine optimisation tool for examining which websites link to a domain, how trustworthy those links appear, and how competitors compare.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review a website’s backlink profile, find competitor link gaps, track changes, and prepare monitoring reports.
Why use it?
It helps identify risky links, missing links, and useful opportunities without manually comparing backlink data.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

backlink-analyzer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

86% identical to alert-manager — 157 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 147 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Analyzes backlink profiles for quality, risk, competitive gaps, and link-building opportunities.

Quick Start

Analyze backlink profile for [domain]
Find link building opportunities by analyzing [competitor domains]

Skill Contract

Expected output: a backlink report or delta summary plus the standard handoff summary for memory/monitoring/.

  • Reads: current metrics, baselines, alert thresholds, and reporting context from AGENTS.md and the shared State Model when available.
  • Writes: a user-facing monitoring deliverable and reusable summary.
  • Promotes: significant changes, confirmed anomalies, follow-up actions, and pending decisions to memory/open-loops.md.
  • Primary next skill: domain-authority-auditor when toxicity or authority concerns need formal scoring.

Handoff Summary

Emit the standard shape from skill-contract.md §Handoff Summary Format.

Data Sources

All integrations optional (see CONNECTORS.md). With tools, pull backlink profiles from ~~link database and competitor data from ~~SEO tool. Without tools, ask for backlink CSVs, referring domains, competitor domains, and link changes. Respect robots.txt and TOS per SECURITY.md.

Instructions

When a user requests backlink analysis:

  1. Generate Profile Overview — key metrics, link velocity, authority distribution, and profile health score.
  2. Analyze Link Quality — top backlinks, link type mix, anchor text distribution, and geography.
  3. Identify Toxic Links — risk indicators, links to review, and disavow recommendations.
  4. Compare Against Competitors — profile comparison, link intersection, and top linked competitor content.
  5. Find Link Building Opportunities — intersection prospects, broken links, unlinked mentions, resource pages, guest posts, and effort-vs-impact priorities.
  6. Track Link Changes — new and lost links, net change, and recovery priorities.
  7. Generate Backlink Report — executive summary, strengths, concerns, opportunities, competitive position, recommended actions, and KPIs.

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

build-in-public

Build in public isn't marketing. It's letting people watch you work. The best posts feel like you're narrating your thought process to a friend who's also a senior engineer. No hype sludge. No "I'm excited to announce." Just: here's what I built, here's why it matters, here's what I learned.
