What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams decide whether to adopt a new dependency by evaluating ten quality signals (maintenance, security, documentation, footprint, licensing, and more) and producing clear, actionable recommendations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-signal evaluation: Automatically gathers data across ecosystems (npm, PyPI, Cargo, Go) and analyzes each signal.
  • Actionable outcomes: Outputs ADOPT, EVALUATE FURTHER, or AVOID with concrete next steps and potential time savings.
  • Automated workflow: Includes an end-to-end workflow with optional automated data gathering script and a comprehensive report.

Quick Start

Run the evaluator: python3 dependency_evaluator.py <package-name> <ecosystem> to generate data.json, then ask Claude for a summarized assessment.
