SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the critical need to identify and mitigate risks associated with project dependencies, including security vulnerabilities, outdated packages, and license incompatibilities.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Vulnerability Scanning: Detects known CVEs in direct and transitive dependencies.
  • Outdated Dependency Detection: Flags packages that are significantly behind the latest major version or are unmaintained.
  • License Compliance: Analyzes dependency licenses against project requirements and flags potential conflicts.
  • Supply-Chain Risk Assessment: Evaluates risks related to maintainer activity, package popularity, build processes, and dependency depth.
  • Use Case: Before releasing a new version of your software, use this Skill to ensure all dependencies are secure, up-to-date, and compliant with your licensing policies.

Quick Start

Run a dependency audit on the current project's package.json file.

What is supply-chain risk assessment for software dependencies?▼

Supply-chain risk assessment for software dependencies evaluates maintainer activity, package popularity, build processes, and dependency depth to identify high-risk factors and EOL packages within your project.

Does dependency vulnerability scanning work with Node.js, Python, Go, and Ruby ecosystems?▼

Yes, dependency vulnerability scanning supports Node.js, Python, Go, and Ruby ecosystems by executing relevant package manager audit commands to identify critical vulnerabilities in both direct and transitive dependencies.

How do I check my project for outdated and unmaintained packages?▼

You can check your project for outdated and unmaintained packages by running a dependency audit, which flags packages that are significantly behind the latest major version or no longer maintained.

When should I run a dependency audit for license compliance and supply-chain risks?▼

You should run a dependency audit for license compliance and supply-chain risks before releasing a new version of your software to ensure all dependencies are secure, up-to-date, and compliant with your licensing policies.
