clonedeps

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you make important dependency source code locally readable so you can inspect internals, debug framework behavior, and understand how external libraries actually work inside a project.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Selective source mirroring: Clones only the small set of dependency repositories that are most useful for real implementation or debugging work.
• Safe workflow control: Uses librarian-assisted discovery, manual ref verification, and orchestrator-owned git operations instead of brittle automation.
• Project integration: Records cloned sources in .slim/clonedeps.json, updates ignore rules, and registers the result in AGENTS.md for future agents.
• Use case: When a project depends on a framework, SDK, plugin API, or ORM with unclear runtime behavior, this Skill makes the source available locally for inspection.

Quick Start

Use the clonedeps skill to inspect the current project, identify the most useful dependency source repositories, and mirror the approved ones into the local ignored workspace.
