Lyra — Short Links & Attribution

Summary

Lyra — Short Links & Attribution — regenerated from canonical/guides/tools/lyra.md. Do not hand-edit this page — update the canonical file and re-project. Status: live. Primary domain: [lyra.stoicagent.com (admin) + l.getrealstl.com (short links)](https://lyra.stoicagent.com (admin) + l.getrealstl.com (short links)). Pipeline role: link intelligence layer — sits between Spark and Hermes.

Content

Purpose

Short URLs, pixel injection, click tracking. Every Spark-built showcase page automatically gets a Lyra short link with a tracking pixel, so when Hermes distributes the page organically, clicks flow back into our attribution.

Current state

  • Status: Live (deployed at scale April 16, 2026)
  • Replaces: Geniuslink (~$20/month saved)
  • Pipeline position: Auto-baked into Spark output, feeds downstream distribution

Where it lives

  • Code: Tools/Lyra/site/
  • Admin UI: lyra.stoicagent.com (Netlify: lyra-admin.netlify.app)
  • Short-link hostname: l.getrealstl.com (also reference in inventory as l.connectbyreal.com — reconcile in refresh pass)
  • Access code: artemis2026 (see memory: Artemis Tool Access Codes)

Integrations

  • Spark — auto-creates short URL on every page build
  • Hermes — distributes short URLs in social posts
  • Analytics backend — click events flow to ??? (verify target: FUB? custom DB? Google Analytics?)

Open questions / gaps

  • Two hostnames cited in different places (l.getrealstl.com vs l.connectbyreal.com) — which is active?
  • Click data destination: where does it accumulate for attribution analysis?
