What it does
Internal Links is an agent skill from thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist. Use when auditing a site's internal link structure, identifying pages that need more incoming links, generating contextual linking opportunities between related content, or reviewing a CMS template's internal linking patterns.
Its SKILL.md is about 770 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/rule.md`).
It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering On-page SEO. The repository describes itself as: 🗂 The essential checklist for modern web development, for humans and AI agents. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Auditing a sites internal link structure
- Identifying pages that need more incoming links
- Generating contextual linking opportunities between related content
- Reviewing a CMS templates internal linking patterns
Example prompts
- “/internal-links”
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- List your top 10–20 most important pages by business value.
- For each, identify pages on the site with topically related content.
- Add contextual inline links to those important pages from related content.
- Use descriptive anchor text that includes target keywords: instead of "click here", use "our guide to CSS Grid".
- Add a "Related articles" or "See also" section to articles, linking to relevant high-value pages.
- Ensure your site's top navigation links to your 5–10 most important commercial pages.
- Check that pillar pages link to their supporting cluster pages and vice versa.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e8d14d0. 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
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
frontendchecklist.io
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
Internal Links loads about 770 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 60 tokens; SKILL.md has 392 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.

Add internal links to key pages
Internal links are how PageRank flows through your site. A key page with few internal links receives less PageRank signal, ranking lower than its content quality would otherwise allow. Googlebot also discovers pages through internal links — a page with zero incoming links is likely an orphan page.
Quick Reference
- Important pages should receive multiple internal links with descriptive, keyword-relevant anchor text
- Internal links distribute PageRank; pages receiving few internal links rank lower regardless of content quality
- Use contextual inline links in body content — these carry more weight than navigation or footer links
Check
Using a site crawl, build a map of internal links. For each important page (key landing pages, top blog posts, product pages): (1) Count the number of unique internal pages linking to it. (2) Check if the anchor text of those links includes relevant keywords for the target page. (3) Identify pages with 0–2 incoming internal links (likely orphans or under-linked). (4) Verify links are in body content, not only in global navigation or footer.
Fix
- List your top 10–20 most important pages by business value.
- For each, identify pages on the site with topically related content.
- Add contextual inline links to those important pages from related content.
- Use descriptive anchor text that includes target keywords: instead of "click here", use "our guide to CSS Grid".
- Add a "Related articles" or "See also" section to articles, linking to relevant high-value pages.
- Ensure your site's top navigation links to your 5–10 most important commercial pages.
- Check that pillar pages link to their supporting cluster pages and vice versa.

Explain
PageRank, Google's foundational ranking algorithm, flows from page to page through internal links. A page with many high-quality internal links pointing to it receives more PageRank signal and ranks more competitively. Anchor text of internal links also provides keyword context signals to Google about the target page's topic.
Code Review
Build an internal link graph from crawl data. Compute in-degree (number of pages linking in) for each page. Flag pages with in-degree < 2 that are in the sitemap and not excluded by robots/noindex. Check anchor text of internal links for generic text ('here', 'click', 'read more') that could be replaced with descriptive keyword-rich text.
