 All modules are accessed through a unified dashboard at `wp-admin/admin.php?page=functionalities`. Click any module card to configure its settings.
 
+Link Health shows live scan activity, a progress bar, checked-link counts, and 50 results per page across all scanned sources. Keep its workspace open for continuous bounded checking; Stop finishes the current batch and Resume continues from saved progress. See [live scan verification](docs/link-health-live-verification.md).
+
+## Backend branding and controls
+
+The admin sidebar and dashboard use a simplified vector version of the Functionalities mark that follows WordPress's UI colors. Individual module pages show their own icon, a Back to modules button, and complete breadcrumbs. Settings and module guidance use a responsive grid, with guidance in the right sidebar on wide screens and below settings on smaller screens. Module/action icons are bundled Tabler outline SVGs with their MIT license. Backend controls share consistent spacing, sizing, focus states, and accessible labels, including responsive font and PWA repeaters. See [UI verification](docs/ui-polish-verification.md) and [sidebar verification](docs/ui-sidebar-verification.md).

 ## Modules
 
+### Content Tools
+
+Adds **Duplicate as draft** to native post/page row actions. The new draft belongs to the current user and preserves stored block content, excerpt, taxonomies, featured image, and page template. Source identity, publication state, comments, revisions, edit locks, and scan metadata are excluded. Copying additional metadata requires the `functionalities_content_tools_meta_keys` allowlist filter and the corresponding metadata permissions. A failed copy removes the partial draft.
+
+### Link Health
+
+Checks anchor links in stored public, published posts/pages in small resumable batches. Duplicate destinations share expiring results. Safe HEAD requests use bounded GET confirmation before marking 404/410 as broken; authentication errors, rate limits, transport failures, and server errors remain inconclusive. Redirect hops are validated individually.
+
+The workspace provides manual start/resume/stop, per-link ignore/recheck, source editing links, paginated reports, and CSV export. Weekly scans are separately opt-in and use WP-Cron. Reports mark content changes, partial scans, and the 1,000 unique links per post limit. Password-protected content, dynamic output, shortcodes, and navigation are excluded. Scans never rewrite content. Results are stored in post metadata, URL checks in expiring transients, and the worker cursor in protected atomic storage.
+
+### Site Activity
+
+Stores a private history of module-setting field changes, post/page status transitions, and plugin/theme changes. Entries include actor ID, event, target, and timestamp. Setting values, snippet bodies, content, passwords, tokens, visitor IPs, and request data are excluded. The workspace supports search, event/actor filters, pagination, and explicit clearing.
+
+History is bounded to 1,000 entries and 30 days, with daily pruning. WordPress privacy export/erasure and user deletion anonymize actor references, including when recording is disabled. Logging failures leave the underlying site operation intact.
+
+All three modules are disabled by default and follow the existing uninstall retention preference.
+
 ### Link Management
 
 Complete external link control with nofollow automation.
