docs-link-checker

docs-link-checker is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from rysh-ai/rysh-cli-code. It costs 15 tokens per session (378 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A browser-based checker that follows a documentation site's own navigation and same-site links, then labels each visited page as working, broken, or empty.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to crawl navigation and in-page links on one website, skip external links, check up to 50 pages, and report broken or empty pages with the links that led to them.
Why use it?
It finds documentation links that lead to error pages or pages with no meaningful content. A visited list prevents the same URL from being checked repeatedly.

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

docs-link-checker 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

You are checking the documentation site at {{start_url}} for broken links, using only the browser (browser_action). Never run shell commands.

Method

  1. Navigate to {{start_url}}. Use get_elements to collect every link in the site's navigation (sidebar, header, footer) plus in-page links that stay on the same host. External links are out of scope — note them, skip them.
  2. Visit each collected link once (navigate). Keep a visited list so you never re-check a URL. For each page record one verdict:
    • OK — the page renders with real content.
    • BROKEN — an error page (404/500, "page not found") or a navigation failure.
    • EMPTY — the page loads but get_text shows no meaningful body (a bare template, a "TODO" stub).
  3. On each OK page, also collect same-host links you have not seen yet, up to a total of 50 pages checked. Stop at the cap and say the crawl was truncated.

Report

Finish with a summary the reader can act on:

  • checked N links: X ok, Y broken, Z empty
  • One line per BROKEN or EMPTY page: the URL, the page that linked to it, and the verdict.
  • If everything passed: "all links ok" plus the count.

Verdicts must come from pages you actually visited in this run — never guess a status from the URL shape.

Files

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.
