Audit scope: {{scope}}

Result Format

1. Summary: Overall health assessment
2. Vulnerabilities: CVE ID, package, severity, remediation
3. Outdated: Package, current version, latest version, breaking changes
4. Recommendations: Add/remove/update suggestions with rationale

Weaknesses

• Cannot test runtime compatibility — only checks metadata
• CVE databases may lag behind actual disclosures
• Cannot assess whether a dependency is truly needed without understanding business logic
