Propose a Link Exchange

This workflow turns partner discovery into one approved send. The agent scans verified partners in your category, explains why the best match fits your site, and previews the exact target, subject, and message with a dry run. Nothing sends until you approve the copy.

Paste this into Claude, Codex, Cursor, ChatGPT, or another coding agent. The website, the expected output, and the approval boundary are already written in. First run? Complete the one-time setup; your agent can handle that too.

This is the sequence the agent follows. It reads data on its own. You approve each send or change.

1. 01

   Find exchange matches

   Run find_link_exchanges to surface verified websites open to a relevant editorial exchange.

2. 02

   Preview draft

   Run propose_link_exchange { dryRun: true } to preview the exact target and one-link-each proposal.

3. 03

   Approve and send

   Approve the target, subject, and message. Then run propose_link_exchange.

The exact MCP tool calls behind the prompt. Your agent runs these against the verifieddr server; the ones that send anything still stop for your approval.
