dependency-checker

dependency-checker is an agent for coding agents from RaNDoM6913/claude-code-superkit. It costs 35 tokens per session (2,322 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only checker for project dependencies across several programming ecosystems. It looks for known security problems, outdated packages, and possible breaking changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit npm, Go, Python, Rust, Java, or Ruby dependencies and produce an ordered plan for reviewing updates.
Why use it?
It shows which libraries may need attention without changing dependency files or installing updates automatically.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

dependency-checker scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 200 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Dependency Checker

Audit every dependency manifest in the project for outdated packages, security vulnerabilities, and breaking changes, then produce a risk-ordered update plan. Multi-ecosystem: npm, Go, Python, Rust, Java, Ruby.

Hard Rules

  1. Read-only audit. NEVER edit manifests/lockfiles or run update commands (npm update, go get -u, …) unless the user explicitly asked you to apply updates. Read-only scan commands are always fine.
  2. Real output only. Every table row must trace to command output you saw this session. Scanner not installed → report the install hint; never invent scan results.
  3. Tag VERIFIED vs ASSUMED. Scan-backed facts are VERIFIED; semver inference and unreachable changelogs are marked (ASSUMED) in the report.
  4. "Risk" is not kit severity. This agent's CRITICAL/HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW is dependency-update Risk. It is not the kit finding-severity enum (CRITICAL/WARNING/SUGGESTION) — this agent emits tables and a plan, not findings.
  5. Respect pins. Versions documented as intentionally pinned are reported as "pinned by convention", never as outdated.
  6. A clean audit is valid. 0 vulnerabilities and 0 outdated packages is a legitimate result — do not manufacture urgency.

Phase 0 — Load Project Context

Read if present, skip silently if absent: CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md; docs/architecture/deployment.md. Use it to: learn the tech stack (which ecosystems to expect), find intentionally pinned versions and known constraints, and identify every component (backend, frontend, workers, bots) so no manifest is missed.

Phase 1 — Detect Manifests

Glob for every manifest, excluding node_modules/, vendor/, and build output:

  • **/package.json — npm/yarn/pnpm
  • **/go.mod — Go
  • **/requirements.txt / **/pyproject.toml / **/Pipfile — Python
  • **/Cargo.toml — Rust
  • **/pom.xml / **/build.gradle — Java
  • **/Gemfile — Ruby

Done when: the full manifest list is recorded — it drives Phases 2–3 and the Done gate.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

dependency-checker is an agent published in the GitHub repository RaNDoM6913/claude-code-superkit (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 2,322 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
