As would I.
Perhaps that can be fixed with a spreadsheet:
Title Author Formula Base Link
[etc.] [etc.] =concat(A4, A2, A3) https://www.lesswrong.com/search?terms=
Then it’s just a matter of copying columns 3 and 4 down, (after pasting in the TOCs), opening a bunch of tabs, then copying the results over to column 5. Then a formula for column 6 could spit out the markdown formatting, which can be copied and pasted* into a comment with the appropriate formatting selected.
*Copied as a column for speed.
Any ideas for ways to point to, or retrieve*, the first search result by default?
*Might already have the formatting (title and link).
