SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Dependency sprawl makes it hard to spot vulnerabilities, license conflicts, and stale packages before they become security or legal issues.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Vulnerability scanning across common ecosystems with CVE matching and severity scoring.
  • License compliance checks that classify permissive, copyleft, proprietary, and unknown licenses.
  • Upgrade planning that prioritizes safe patches, security fixes, and high-risk migrations.
  • Use it to audit a Node.js app before release, review third-party licenses for a commercial launch, or plan a staged dependency upgrade after a security alert.

Quick Start

Ask the dependency auditor to scan your project, identify dependency risks, and recommend the safest next upgrades.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scan my project for dependency vulnerabilities and license conflicts?

Dependency auditing scans project manifests and lockfiles locally to match CVEs, classify licenses, and identify upgrade risks without requiring external network calls.

Can I audit dependencies across multiple programming languages like Node.js, Python, and Go?

Yes, dependency auditing supports multi-language workflows across Node.js, Python, Go, Rust, Ruby, Java, PHP, and .NET, analyzing manifests and lockfiles from each ecosystem.

What is the best way to plan safe dependency upgrades after a security alert?

Use semver-based upgrade planning to prioritize safe patches and security fixes over high-risk migrations, allowing you to stage dependency upgrades systematically.

Does dependency auditing work without external network connections or external dependencies?

Dependency auditing operates entirely through local JSON and text analysis, requiring no external dependencies or network connections to classify licenses and match CVEs.

How do I check my Node.js app for license compliance before a commercial launch?

Audit your project manifests to classify dependencies into permissive, copyleft, proprietary, and unknown license categories, identifying potential legal conflicts before release.

What limitations exist when auditing dependency inventories locally?

Local dependency auditing relies on local JSON and text analysis without external dependencies, which may limit access to real-time CVE database updates or live external license registries.
