Fix Broken Links

Preview broken wikilinks and spawn autonomous repair agent.

When to Use

Invoke when you want to:

• Find all broken wikilinks in vault
• Preview what's broken and why
• Repair broken links automatically
• Improve vault link health

Process

1. Find Broken Links

Call mcp__flywheel__find_broken_links to retrieve all broken wikilinks.

2. Analyze Break Patterns

Categorize broken links by type:

Missing Notes (create candidates):

• [[New Topic]] → No file exists
• High confidence if referenced multiple times
• Suggest creating note

Typos (fuzzy match):

• [[Databrics]] → Did you mean [[Databricks]]?
• Use Levenshtein distance
• Auto-fix if confidence >90%

Case Mismatches (exact match different case):

• [[databricks]] → Exists as [[Databricks]]
• Auto-fix (safe)

Moved Notes (search by title):

• [[Old Path/Note]] → Now at [[New Path/Note]]
• Search vault for matching title
• Suggest update

3. Show Preview

Display first 20 broken links with categorization:

Broken Links Analysis
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
Found 200 broken links across 50 notes

📊 Breakdown by Type:
  • Missing Notes: 80 (40%)
  • Typos: 40 (20%)
  • Case Mismatches: 30 (15%)
  • Moved/Renamed: 50 (25%)

🔍 Sample (showing 20 of 200):

Missing Notes:
1. [[API Guide]] (15 references)
   → Mentioned in: Projects, Tech Docs
   → Suggestion: Create tech/guides/API.md

Typos:
2. [[Databrics]] → [[Databricks]] (confidence: 95%)
   → Auto-fixable

Case Mismatches:
3. [[azure]] → [[Azure]] (exact match)
   → Auto-fixable

═══════════════════════════════════════════════

💡 Recommendations:
  • Auto-fix: 50 links (high confidence >90%)
  • User review: 60 links (medium confidence 50-90%)
  • Manual fix: 90 links (low confidence <50%)

🤖 Spawn autonomous repair agent?
  • Will process all 200 broken links
  • Auto-fix high confidence (>90%)
  • Present choices for medium confidence (50-90%)
  • Skip low confidence (<50%)

Type 'yes' to spawn link-repair agent

4. User Decision

Ask user if they want to:

• Option A: Spawn agent for autonomous fixing
• Option B: See full list (export to note)
• Option C: Fix specific folder only
• Option D: Cancel (just wanted to see the damage)

Confidence Scoring

Typo Detection (Levenshtein Distance):
- Distance 1: 98% confidence
- Distance 2: 85% confidence
- Distance 3+: <70% confidence

Case Mismatch:
- Exact title match: 100% confidence
- Always safe to auto-fix

Missing Note Analysis:
- Referenced 20+ times: High priority (suggest create)
- Referenced 5-19 times: Medium priority
- Referenced 1-4 times: Low priority (might be scratch)

Moved Note Detection:
- Title exact match: 95% confidence
- Title fuzzy match: 60-85% confidence
- Search by content similarity: <60% confidence

Six Gates Compliance

| Gate | Implementation | |------|----------------| | 1. Read Before Write | Finds all broken links via MCP before any fixes | | 2. File Exists | Validates target notes exist for link suggestions | | 3. Chain Validation | Agent verifies each fix before proceeding | | 4. Mutation Confirmation | Shows preview, requires explicit "yes" to proceed | | 5. Health Check | Uses MCP find_broken_links for vault access | | 6. Post Validation | Agent reports what was fixed after completion |

Safety

• Non-destructive: Only suggests, doesn't auto-apply
• User approval: Requires explicit "yes" to spawn agent
• Preview first: Always show what's broken before fixing
• Backup: Agent will backup before batch edits

Performance

• Discovery: 5-10 seconds (find_broken_links MCP call)
• Analysis: 10-20 seconds (categorize links)
• Preview: Instant (show first 20)
• Total: ~30 seconds before agent spawn decision
