fix-dependencies

A command that finds and automatically repairs common problems in task dependencies, such as deleted references, self-links, duplicates, and simple circular chains.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after changing a project's task list to repair dependency errors, preserve the intended order of work, and identify issues that still need manual review.
Why use it?
It removes broken or redundant links between tasks and then checks whether the dependency structure is valid again.

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

fix-dependencies 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 2d 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

100% identical to fix-dependencies — 6 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.

What it actually says

Automatically fix dependency issues found during validation.

Automatic Dependency Repair

Intelligently fixes common dependency problems while preserving project logic.

Execution

task-master fix-dependencies

What Gets Fixed

1. Auto-Fixable Issues

  • Remove references to deleted tasks
  • Break simple circular dependencies
  • Remove self-dependencies
  • Clean up duplicate dependencies

2. Smart Resolutions

  • Reorder dependencies to maintain logic
  • Suggest task merging for over-dependent tasks
  • Flatten unnecessary dependency chains
  • Remove redundant transitive dependencies

3. Manual Review Required

  • Complex circular dependencies
  • Critical path modifications
  • Business logic dependencies
  • High-impact changes

Fix Process

  1. Analysis Phase

    • Run validation check
    • Categorize issues by type
    • Determine fix strategy
  2. Execution Phase

    • Apply automatic fixes
    • Log all changes made
    • Preserve task relationships
  3. Verification Phase

    • Re-validate after fixes
    • Show before/after comparison
    • Highlight manual fixes needed

Smart Features

  • Preserves intended task flow
  • Minimal disruption approach
  • Creates fix history/log
  • Suggests manual interventions

Output Example

Dependency Auto-Fix Report
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Fixed Automatically:
✅ Removed 2 references to deleted tasks
✅ Resolved 1 self-dependency
✅ Cleaned 3 redundant dependencies

Manual Review Needed:
⚠️ Complex circular dependency: #12 → #15 → #18 → #12
  Suggestion: Make #15 not depend on #12
⚠️ Task #45 has 8 dependencies
  Suggestion: Break into subtasks

Run '/project:tm/validate-dependencies' to verify fixes

Safety

  • Preview mode available
  • Rollback capability
  • Change logging
  • No data loss
Changes

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.
