What it does

Link Checker is an agent skill from guia-matthieu/clawfu-skills. Find broken links on websites. Use when: auditing website for broken links; checking internal link structure; finding 404 errors; validating external links; pre-launch QA

Its SKILL.md is about 380 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/main.py`).

It sits in Marketing & SEO. The repository describes itself as: 172 expert marketing skills for AI agents — ClawFu MCP Server. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • : auditing website for broken links
  • Checking internal link structure
  • Finding 404 errors
  • Validating external links

Example prompts

  • “/link-checker”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4108f5c. 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

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python
    • pip

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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 Checker loads about 375 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 99 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~375

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
