Execution Workflow

Phase 1: Fetch Project Information

  1. Call listProjects to retrieve all projects from MyBacklinks.app
  2. Display project list for user selection
  3. Call getProjectDetail to fetch:
    • Project name
    • Project description
    • Project domain
    • Project URL

Example Output:

Project: MyBacklinks
URL: https://mybacklinks.app
Description: Backlink management platform for indie hackers

Phase 2: Retrieve Available Resources

  1. Call discoverBacklinkOpportunities to get backlink resources:

    {
      "projectId": "<selected_project_id>",
      "filter": {
        "payment": "free",
        "types": ["directory", "forum", "social", "other"]
      },
      "limit": 50
    }
    
  2. Filter criteria:

    • paymentType = "free" (free resources only)
    • type != "blog" (exclude blog type - use blog-commenter-skill instead)
    • Prefer resources with howToSubmit field populated
  3. Display resource list for confirmation:

    Found X submittable non-blog backlink resources:
    1. example-directory.com (DR: 45) - directory
    2. startup-forum.com (DR: 38) - forum
    3. social-profile.com (DR: 52) - social
    ...
    Proceed with submission? (Blog resources excluded - use blog-commenter-skill)
    

Phase 3: Execute Submissions

For each resource:

3.1 Load Chrome DevTools

  • Keyword Anchor: Core keywords (e.g., "backlink management")

  1. Navigate: Open submission URL
  2. Screenshot: Save initial page state
  3. Login (if required):
    • Prefer Google OAuth (if already logged in)
    • Or use cc@{domain} / 12345678
    • If login fails, skip and mark as login_required
  4. Fill Form: Complete form per howToSubmit instructions
  5. Submit: Click submit button
  6. Verify: Check for success confirmation
  7. Screenshot: Save final state

Example Execution:
