# `/broken-backlinks` — Broken-backlink replacement opportunity finder
Captures the highest-conversion backlink-acquisition opportunity on the web: publishers with a known-broken outbound link who need a replacement. Conversion rates on broken-link outreach run 8–15% (vs. 0.5–2% for cold-pitch outreach) because you're solving the publisher's problem, not asking for a favor.
This skill does NOT auto-send outreach. It queues opportunities for user review + approval. Pitches are drafted by `/outreach` (see `templates/outreach/` once built).
## Inputs
Required (asked at start if not given):
- **Site** — must match a folder under `sites/[name]/`.
Optional (per-run overrides):
- **Keyword tool** — overrides the site's default. Source for broken-backlink reports. SEMrush is the default (preferred for sites with active SEMrush subscriptions); Ahrefs and Moz are supported via API plug-ins.
- **`--min-da=N`** — minimum DA of source page to include (default 30; below 30 = low-leverage links).
- **`--max-opportunities=N`** — cap opportunities per run (default 25; below cap, may surface < 25 if competitors haven't lost many links this month).
- **`--competitor=domain.com`** — restrict to one competitor's backlink graph this run.
## Workflow
### Step 0 — Cron-mode detection (if invoked with `--cron`)
Cron mode is the DEFAULT for this skill — monthly cadence is the right frequency (broken-backlink opportunities don't materialize overnight). Required behavior per the standard contrac
