What this skill does
From content mapping to builder-aware link insertion, the Internal Link Builder gives you a complete interlinking workflow with full control.
Content Relationship Mapping
Scans all pages and posts, extracts topics and keywords, and builds a complete map of how your content relates to each other.
Opportunity Detection
Finds orphaned pages, missing contextual links, weak topic clusters, and hub pages that should link to sub-pages but don't.
Plan-First Approach
Presents every recommended link with source, target, anchor text, placement context, and reasoning — then waits for your approval.
Duplicate-First Application
Creates optimized duplicates with links inserted, respecting your page builder format. Review before publishing.
