SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Reviews automated dependency bump pull requests to identify compatibility risks, security vulnerabilities, and migration needs so maintainers can triage and act quickly without manual, repetitive checks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Security and Compatibility Analysis: Detects CVEs, security advisories, and breaking changes by researching changelogs and advisories.
  • Single and Batch Reviews: Handles a single PR or spawns parallel reviewer agents to process many bot-authored dependency PRs (Dependabot, Renovate, etc.).
  • GitHub Integration and Safe Impact Checks: Uses the gh CLI, inspects diffs and CI status, clones repositories to isolated temp directories for usage analysis, and aggregates structured reports for decisions.
  • Use Case: Triage all open Dependabot and Renovate PRs across your repositories, approving low-risk updates and surfacing PRs that require manual migration work.

Quick Start

Run the skill with a PR number or URL (for example, /review-deps owner/repo#123) or run /review-deps with no arguments to batch-review dependency PRs from your GitHub notifications.
