What it does
Directory Link Evaluation is an agent skill from hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins. Evaluate directories, listings, profiles, citations, associations, and resource indexes for legitimate link-building value, editorial quality, spam risk, local relevance, and submission fit. Use when deciding whether to submit to a directory, audit directory backlinks, compare listing opportunities, or reject low-quality indexes.
Its SKILL.md is about 690 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `references/core/examples.md`, `references/core/knowledge.md` and `references/core/rules.md`). Compatibility notes: Codex, Claude Code, and other Agent Skills-compatible clients.
It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Link building and Citation management. The repository describes itself as: A curated list of awesome OpenAI Codex / ChatGPT plugins, skills, and resources. The 1 Codex Marketplace. See live plugins at: https://hol.org/plugins/best-codex-plugins. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Deciding whether to submit to a directory
- Audit directory backlinks
- Compare listing opportunities
- Reject low-quality indexes
Example prompts
- “/directory-link-evaluation”
Requirements
- Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Codex, Claude Code, and other Agent Skills-compatible clients.
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Use the Contents table below to choose the smallest useful reference set.
- Use workflows/evaluate-directory-links.md for a full evaluation pass.
- Confirm the directory serves a real audience or market function.
- Apply hard rejects before considering authority metrics.
- Return submit, update, monitor, or reject recommendations with evidence.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 78497e5. 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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
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.
Compatibility
Codex, Claude Code, and other Agent Skills-compatible clients.
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Context cost
Directory Link Evaluation loads about 693 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 89 tokens; SKILL.md has 264 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.

Directory Link Evaluation
Use this skill to decide whether a directory, listing, association profile, citation site, or resource index is worth pursuing or keeping.
This skill is derived from Garrett French and Eric Ward's Ultimate Guide to Link Building and uses transformed guidance with durable book-topic references. Do not copy book prose into user outputs.
Quick Start
- Use the Contents table below to choose the smallest useful reference set.
- Use
workflows/evaluate-directory-links.mdfor a full evaluation pass. - Confirm the directory serves a real audience or market function.
- Apply hard rejects before considering authority metrics.
- Return submit, update, monitor, or reject recommendations with evidence.
Default Output
When asked to evaluate directories, return:
- Directory type - local citation, niche directory, association, marketplace, resource index, or paid listing.
- Audience and relevance - who uses it, category fit, geography, and business fit.
- Quality evidence - editorial standards, indexing, visible traffic signals, outbound link quality, and maintenance.
- Risk flags - thin pages, paid-link footprints, links across the whole site, irrelevant categories, or low-quality neighbors.
- Tool choices - browser inspection, search operators, crawlers, backlink tools, index checks, and tracking sheet.
- Recommendation - submit, update, monitor, reject, or remove/disavow review if toxic.

| Need | Start Here |

| Understand directory link concepts | references/core/knowledge.md |
| Apply evaluation rules | references/core/rules.md |
| See scoring examples | references/core/examples.md |
| Evaluate directories | workflows/evaluate-directory-links.md |
Core Posture
- A good directory helps users find relevant options.
- Relevance and editorial standards matter more than raw authority.
- Paid inclusion requires extra scrutiny and link qualification.
- Local citations are evaluated differently from national SEO directories.
- Reject directories whose main purpose is selling ranking-passing links.
