# inbound-links cli namespace
```bash
docs-builder inbound-links --help
```

Validate cross-doc-set links against the published link registry.

## Commands

<page-card>
  Validate all cross-links originating from or targeting a specific repository.
</page-card>

<page-card>
  Validate all cross-links across every published links.json in the registry.
</page-card>

<page-card>
  Validate a locally built links.json against the published link registry.
</page-card>


## Notes

Every documentation set publishes a links.json file containing the URLs of all its pages.
These files are aggregated into a shared link registry. Inbound-links commands validate that
cross-links between documentation sets resolve to real pages in the registry.
