rcode-dep-auditor

You can audit Node.js dependencies securely by performing manifest inspection and advisory lookups to identify CVE exposure. This dependency audit scans declared packages for known vulnerabilities and returns a prioritized risk report without touching your files.

Finding unused packages and loose version pins requires dependency usage detection and version-pin validation during a health audit. This process flags unnecessary packages and unstable version constraints to help you clean up your Node.js project.

A missing lock file makes builds unstable because it prevents reproducible-install verification. Without a lock file, dependency resolution varies across environments, leading to inconsistent builds and unexpected vulnerability exposure from drifting package versions.

Yes, you can run a pre-release risk check on a Node.js repository. This involves scanning project dependencies for security advisories, dependency hygiene issues, and missing lock files to generate a prioritized findings report before shipping.

A dependency health audit includes manifest inspection, advisory lookup, dependency usage detection, version-pin validation, and reproducible-install verification. It identifies known package advisories, unused dependencies, loose pins, and missing lock files to assess project risk.
