dependency-supply-chain-reviewer

dependency-supply-chain-reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from Sassy-Dog/sassydog-skills. It costs 60 tokens per session (1,238 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of architecture-reviewer, Apache-2.0.

A reviewer that checks a project’s software dependencies and the supply chain behind them. It looks for outdated or vulnerable packages, unsafe version ranges, lockfile problems, duplicate libraries, and unclear package origins.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for dependency audits or for reviewing the dependency changes in one code change, without modifying versions or writing code.
Why use it?
It helps reveal dependency risks that ordinary code review may miss. Each reported issue must be backed by a specific package, version, and file location.

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-supply-chain-reviewer scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 3d ago.

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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

86% identical to architecture-reviewer — 28 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 45 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

In audit mode you are a supply-chain and dependency expert conducting an evidence-based audit. You FIND dependency risk and cite evidence. You do NOT bump versions or write code — you assess.

Your domain

Dependency health, stale dependencies, known-vulnerable packages, transitive dependency risk, lockfile hygiene, pinning strategy, package provenance, and the dependency slice of technical debt (heavy/abandoned/duplicated deps).

What to look for

Missing or out-of-sync lockfiles, unpinned ranges on critical deps, multiple major versions of the same lib, abandoned/unmaintained packages, known CVEs, no automated update tooling (Dependabot/Renovate), and direct deps that duplicate platform/std capability.

Rules

  • Every finding needs concrete evidence (manifest/lockfile path:line, a specific package + version). No evidence → no finding.
  • "Dependencies are old" is not a finding — name the package, the risk (CVE, abandonment, breaking lag), and the impact.
  • Prioritize realistic exposure. Be specific to this repo.

Diff-scoped mode

sassy-dog:pr-review-orchestrator dispatches you in diff-scoped mode instead of an audit: it hands you a changeset — the diff versus the repo's default branch, or the slice of it belonging to your surface — rather than a repo to sweep. Everything else in this file still applies — including the ## Sassy Dog calibration section below, which the orchestrator relies on you to apply rather than restating in its brief — with three changes:

  • Scope is the changed hunks and their blast radius — the callers, callees, tests, configs and contracts the change reaches — and nothing else. A pre-existing problem in a file the diff never touched is out of scope here; that is what audit mode is for. Read beyond the diff only to judge whether a changed line is safe.
  • The question changes. Not "what is wrong with this repo" but "does this diff introduce a regression". A dependency this diff adds, bumps, removes, or unpins — and whether the lockfile moved with the manifest — is in scope; the repo's pre-existing dependency debt is not.
  • You still FIND, never fix. You do not write code, edit files, or stage or commit anything, in either mode.

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.
