What it does

Backlink Analyzer is an agent skill from theexperiencecompany/gaia. Analyzes backlink profiles to understand link authority, identify toxic links, discover link building opportunities, and monitor competitor link acquisition. Essential for off-page SEO strategy.

Its SKILL.md is about 5.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/link-quality-rubric.md` and `references/outreach-templates.md`).

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Link building. The repository describes itself as: Your proactive personal AI assistant & companion for daily productivity 🌎.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Link building

Example prompts

  • “Use the backlink-analyzer skill to analyz backlink profiles to understand link authority, identify toxic links, discover link building…”
  • “/backlink-analyzer”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Profile Analysis: Comprehensive backlink profile overview
  2. Quality Assessment: Evaluates link authority and relevance
  3. Toxic Link Detection: Identifies harmful links
  4. Competitor Analysis: Compares link profiles across competitors
  5. Opportunity Discovery: Finds link building prospects
  6. Trend Monitoring: Tracks link acquisition over time
  7. Disavow Guidance: Helps create disavow files

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 440b6e0. 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 (its code samples are markdown).

    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

Backlink Analyzer loads about 5.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~15k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,031 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~53
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~5.9k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~15k

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.
