    You will need to create a few new files in

    admin/includes/boxes/extra_boxes/your_file.php
    admin/includes/extra_datafiles/your_file.php
    admin/includes/languages/english/your_file.php
    admin/your_file.php

    The latter containing the chunk of php code what you want to do with your link OR you could leave this file out
    altogether and include your link in admin/includes/languages/english/your_file.php

    Just download the mod Backup Mysite and clone it according to your needs.

    Make sure you backup everything before doing something like this

    Um, not quite. Try this instead:
    /admin/includes/boxes/extra_boxes/XXXXXX_tools.dhtml

    No, wait a minute. Checking other add-ons on my admin, shouldn't it be your_file_tools_dhtml.php ?
