On-Publish Link Check that Blocks Bad Links Before They Go Live

When your CMS publishes a page, this checks every link on it in real time and, if any are broken or redirect, posts an immediate Slack alert and opens a Linear issue so the page…

How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • TriggerCMS publish webhook delivers new page URLHTTP webhook
  • ActionFirecrawl scrapes the published URL's linksFirecrawl
  • LogicBranch: any 3xx/4xx/5xx link? else end
  • ActionOpenAI suggests replacement URLs + summaryOpenAI
  • ActionOpen Linear issue with findingsLinearLinear
  • OutputSend Slack alert to publishing channelSlack

What it does

The moment your CMS or static-site build fires a publish webhook, this workflow fetches the freshly published URL, validates every link on the page, and surfaces any broken or redirecting links instantly. It posts a Slack alert to the editor who shipped the page and opens a Linear issue with the exact dead links and recommended replacements.

When to use it

Use it when you want to catch link rot at the moment of publish rather than days later in a batch crawl. Ideal for teams with frequent content releases who want fast feedback while the author still has context.

How it works

  1. 1The CMS publish event hits an HTTP webhook with the new page URL.
  2. 2Firecrawl scrapes that single URL and returns its links with HTTP statuses.
  3. 3A logic step checks whether any link is 3xx/4xx/5xx; if everything is clean the run ends quietly.
  4. 4OpenAI suggests a replacement URL for each problem link and writes a concise summary.
  5. 5A Linear issue is opened with the page, the bad links, and the suggestions.
  6. 6A Slack alert is sent to the publishing channel with a link to the issue.
