Internal-linking tool for an Astro site built with the new-website kit. Builds the site's inbound-link graph from dist/ and reports which pages are ORPHANED (in the sitemap but no internal link points at them), THIN (a single inbound link, no contextual in-body link), or DEEP (more than ~3 clicks from home), then suggests WHERE to add the missing links using `site-architecture`'s internal-linking strategy. The judgment-side complement to the offline `tests/orphans.spec.ts` gate. Run before a…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Internal Link Audit

Pages rot in the OTHER direction too: not the links that go dead, but the pages that
nothing links TO. A page can be in the sitemap, pass every QA spec, and still be
**orphaned** — reachable by no internal link, so crawlers find it late (or never) and
no human browsing the site ever lands on it. The classic cause: a footer/nav link
group that lists only ONE of a sibling set (e.g. one `acme-vs-<competitor>` comparison),
leaving the rest linked from nowhere.

This is the internal-link twin of `outgoing-link-audit`:

| | offline CI gate | active sweep (this) |
|---|---|---|
| **outgoing** (dead/rebranded) | `tests/links.spec.ts` | `outgoing-link-audit` |
| **internal** (orphan/thin) | `tests/orphans.spec.ts` | **`internal-link-audit`** |

Read-only with respect to the site: it diagnoses and suggests. You apply fixes only
after the user confirms.

## The strategy it enforces

This skill does not invent its own linking rules — it **measures the built site against
the strategy in `site-architecture`** (its "Internal Linking Strategy" section, plus its
"3-Click Rule"; read them before suggesting fixes). The strategies, and how this audit
checks each:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add karero/croftweaver/internal-link-audit@sha256:468f95bd8651ea77

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260829.3bef4bd, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
