SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps teams quickly detect vulnerabilities, licensing issues, and supply-chain risks in project dependencies, enabling proactive risk management during audits and releases.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Vulnerability scanning: integrate ecosystem scanners (npm audit, cargo audit, etc.) to surface CVEs and remediation.
  • License compliance: identify licenses and flag conflicts with project policy.
  • Supply chain risk indicators: assess risk signals like outdated or unmaintained packages and high-risk permissions.

Quick Start

Scan your project's dependencies to produce a structured risk report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scan project dependencies for vulnerabilities and license issues?

To scan project dependencies for vulnerabilities and license issues, this skill orchestrates language-specific scanners across Node.js, Python, Rust, and Go ecosystems. It aggregates findings into a structured risk report suitable for CI integration.

Can I automate dependency scans during a pre-release audit?

Yes, you can automate dependency scans during a pre-release audit. The skill integrates into CI workflows to identify supply chain risks, flag outdated packages, and output a structured report for proactive risk management.

Does dependency scanning work across multiple programming languages?

Dependency scanning works across Node.js, Python, Rust, and Go ecosystems. It orchestrates ecosystem-specific scanners like npm audit and cargo audit to surface CVEs and identify license conflicts with your project policy.

What is the best way to identify supply chain risks in outdated packages?

The best way to identify supply chain risks in outdated packages is using an automated scanner that assesses risk signals like unmaintained packages and high-risk permissions. It aggregates these indicators into a unified compliance report.

How do I check for license compliance conflicts in my project dependencies?

To check for license compliance conflicts, the skill identifies licenses within your dependencies and flags any conflicts against your project policy. This enables proactive license compliance checks during ongoing security reviews.

What are the limitations of running automated security reviews on dependencies?

Automated security reviews on dependencies are limited to Node.js, Python, Rust, and Go ecosystems. They rely on orchestrating existing language-specific scanners to surface known CVEs and supply chain risk indicators rather than custom threat modeling.
