Agent Skills: Link Entities

Link Entities

Link entities: $ARGUMENTS

Overview

Creates bidirectional wikilinks between entities to ensure proper interconnection. Can operate in:

1. Manual mode: Link two specific entities
2. Auto mode: Scan a world and suggest missing connections

Instructions

Parse Arguments

• [entity1] [entity2] → Manual linking between two entities
• auto [world name] → Auto-detect and suggest missing links for a world
• [entity1] to [entity2] → Manual with explicit relationship
• [entity] alone → Show what this entity could connect to

Manual Linking Mode

Step 1: Locate Both Entities

1. Search Worlds/ for each entity name
2. If ambiguous, ask for clarification
3. Read both entity files

Step 2: Determine Relationship Type

Based on entity types, suggest appropriate relationship:

| Entity A | Entity B | A Links to B As | B Links to A As | |----------|----------|-----------------|-----------------| | Character | Settlement | Location/Home | Notable NPCs/Residents | | Character | Organization | Member Of | Members | | Character | Character | Ally/Rival/Family | Ally/Rival/Family | | Settlement | Region | Part Of | Contains/Settlements | | Settlement | Organization | Hosts | Headquarters/Presence | | Organization | Organization | Allied With/Rivals | Allied With/Rivals | | Geography | Geography | Part Of/Borders | Contains/Borders | | Character | Deity | Worships | Followers | | Item | Character | Owned By | Equipment/Possessions | | Creature | Geography | Habitat | Native Creatures | | Event | Location | Occurred At | Historical Events |

Ask user to confirm or specify the relationship:

"I'll link [[Entity A]] and [[Entity B]]. Suggested relationship:

• A references B as: [suggested category]
• B references A as: [suggested category]

Is this correct, or would you prefer a different relationship?"

Step 3: Add Links to Both Entities

1. Read Entity A:

   • Find Connections section
   • Identify appropriate subsection
   • Check if link already exists

2. Add Link to Entity A:

   • If subsection exists, append [[Entity B]]
   • If subsection doesn't exist, create it with link
   • Use Edit tool

3. Read Entity B:

   • Find Connections section
   • Identify appropriate subsection (reciprocal)

4. Add Link to Entity B:

   • If subsection exists, append [[Entity A]]
   • If subsection doesn't exist, create it with link

Step 4: Confirm

=== LINKS CREATED ===

[[Entity A]] → [[Entity B]]
Added to: Connections > [Category]

[[Entity B]] → [[Entity A]]
Added to: Connections > [Category]

Both entities now reference each other.

Auto Mode

Step 1: Scan World

1. Build entity index from Worlds/[World Name]/
2. For each entity, extract:
   • All [[wikilinks]] in content
   • All [[wikilinks]] in Connections section
   • Entity type from YAML or folder

Step 2: Build Connection Graph

Create adjacency list:

Entity A → [Entity B, Entity C, ...]
Entity B → [Entity D, ...]
...

Step 3: Identify Missing Links

Check for:

1. One-way links: A links to B, but B doesn't link to A
2. Implied connections:
   • Two characters in same organization should know each other
   • Settlements in same region should reference region
   • Organization headquarters should reference organization
3. Orphan entities: Entities with no incoming links

Step 4: Present Suggestions

=== CONNECTION ANALYSIS: [World Name] ===

One-Way Links Found: X
Suggested New Links: Y
Orphan Entities: Z

HIGH PRIORITY (One-Way Links):
1. [[Character A]] → [[City B]] but City B doesn't link back
   Suggestion: Add Character A to City B's "Notable NPCs"

2. [[Organization X]] → [[Settlement Y]] but Settlement Y doesn't link back
   Suggestion: Add Organization X to Settlement Y's "Organizations"

SUGGESTED CONNECTIONS:
3. [[Character C]] and [[Character D]] are both in [[Organization Z]]
   Suggestion: Link them as "Associates" or "Fellow Members"

4. [[Settlement E]] and [[Settlement F]] are both in [[Region G]]
   Suggestion: Link them as "Nearby Settlements"

ORPHAN ENTITIES (no incoming links):
- [[Forgotten NPC]] - Consider linking from their location
- [[Lonely Mountain]] - Consider linking from parent region

Would you like me to:
1. Fix all one-way links automatically
2. Add all suggested connections
3. Review each suggestion individually
4. Just fix specific items (enter numbers)

Step 5: Apply Fixes

For each approved fix:

1. Read source entity
2. Add link in appropriate section
3. Read target entity
4. Add reciprocal link
5. Track changes made

Step 6: Summary

=== LINKING COMPLETE ===

Changes Made:
- Fixed X one-way links
- Added Y new bidirectional connections
- Orphans addressed: Z

Entities Modified: [list]

Connection Density:
- Before: Average X.X links per entity
- After: Average Y.Y links per entity

Remaining Issues:
- [List any unresolved items]
