What it does
Link Health is an agent skill from gowtham0992/link. Use at the start of Link work when readiness is unclear, after installs or upgrades, and before repairs; verify health, inspect interrupted writes, back up, and repair generated indexes without MCP.
Its SKILL.md is about 390 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Local personal memory for LLM agents. The licence is MIT.
Example prompts
- “/link-health”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Check readiness first
- If the output mentions interrupted or stale operations, inspect them before repair
- Before broad repairs, migrations, or restore work, create a backup
- Repair only generated or structural state that Link reports as safe
- Validate before saying the wiki is healthy
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cc92f36. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Link Health loads about 394 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 161 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Link Health
Use the lnk CLI. Load this skill before trusting a new or changed Link wiki, after installs/upgrades, and before broad repair or restore work. In a source checkout, replace lnk with python3 link.py. MCP and the local web viewer are optional; lnk serve is only for humans to browse the wiki.
- Check readiness first:
bash lnk health [link-root] - If the output mentions interrupted or stale operations, inspect them before repair:
bash lnk operations [link-root] - Before broad repairs, migrations, or restore work, create a backup:
bash lnk backup [link-root] - Repair only generated or structural state that Link reports as safe:
bash lnk doctor --fix [link-root] lnk rebuild-index [link-root] lnk rebuild-backlinks [link-root] - Validate before saying the wiki is healthy:
bash lnk validate [link-root] lnk health [link-root]
If the user asks whether MCP is ready, run lnk verify-mcp [link-root]. Do not start lnk serve for MCP or CLI work.
To check whether optional local semantic recall is active (lexical is always the fallback):
lnk semantic [link-root]It reports the provider tier, model, and index state, and prints the exact setup command when the layer is available but not yet enabled.
