Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00032 | $0.01268 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00634 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00254 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00127 |
Grade A, and why
dependency-updates 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 9d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 241 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Dependency Updates for Drupal with Composer
Use when:
- Checking which packages are outdated
- Updating Drupal core to a newer minor or patch release
- Updating contrib modules or libraries
- Resolving composer version conflicts after an update
Before You Start — Create a Branch
This step is mandatory. Do not run any composer commands until a new branch is created and confirmed. Never update packages directly on
mainormaster.
Check the current branch first:
git branch --show-current
If the user is on main, master, or any protected branch, stop and ask: "What would you like to name the new branch for these updates?"
Suggest a default if they are unsure (e.g., deps/drupal-updates-YYYY-MM-DD).
git checkout -b <branch-name>
Confirm the new branch is active before proceeding:
git branch --show-current
Only continue to the next step once the output confirms a non-protected branch.
Check for Outdated Packages
composer outdated
Shows all packages with newer versions available. Columns: current version → latest available.
Check only direct dependencies
composer outdated --direct
Check a specific package
composer outdated drupal/core-recommended
Update a Specific Package
composer update drupal/package --with-all-dependencies
Update multiple packages at once
composer update drupal/package1 drupal/package2 --with-all-dependencies
Update Drupal Core (Minor or Patch)
Drupal core is split across multiple packages. Update all together:
composer update drupal/core-recommended drupal/core-composer-scaffold drupal/core-project-message --with-all-dependencies
Note: Minor upgrades (e.g., 10.2 → 10.3) may require relaxing the version constraint in
composer.jsonfirst:"drupal/core-recommended": "^10.3"Then run the update command above.
Verify the installed version
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-updates is a skill published in the GitHub repository acquia/acquia-skills (9 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 1,268 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
