dependabot-triage

dependabot-triage is a skill for Codex from akshayrao14/git-practices. It costs 187 tokens per session (10,682 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A guide for handling Dependabot security alerts in JavaScript and TypeScript projects, including Node.js services and browser applications. Dependabot is a tool that reports known security problems in software packages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect CI workflows, classify package usage as public, browser-facing, or internal, select patched versions, and check that dependency files resolve to matching versions.
Why use it?
It helps determine which parts of a project may be exposed, choose the smallest safe package updates, and keep package managers and lockfiles consistent with the continuous-integration setup.

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 B, and why

dependabot-triage scanned grade B 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (install.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Dependabot Triage & Fix (v2.1)

v2.1 highlights

  • Two modes — Standard and Fast-Track. Standard is the defensive workflow (full exposure mapping, changelog scrape, safety interlock). Fast-Track is for low-risk bumps (Internal/Dev category, CVSS < 7, or user opt-in) — skips changelog + detailed exposure enumeration, single-confirmation interlock. Parity check + dual-write are non-negotiable in BOTH modes.
  • CI workflow inspection — first-class detection step. Lockfile alone doesn't tell you what runs in CI. CI may use a different PM than the committed lockfile (e.g. yarn.lock committed, CI runs npm install), or may run <pm> install instead of lockfile-strict <pm> ci. Detection drives the override + parity matrix.
  • Defensive versioning — pick the minimal patched version that fixes all in-cluster CVEs, not "latest in same major".
  • Exposure Mapping replaces heuristic reachability — categorize every import site (Public/API · Client-Bundle · Internal/Dev) and present surface area to the user instead of trying to prove unreachability.
  • Mandatory lockfile parity check — every PM that touches the manifest must resolve to the same version of the target package; mismatch aborts the PR. Required because CI/CD often runs a different PM than local sanity checks.
  • Changelog scrape with safety interlock (Standard mode) — fetch release notes / CHANGELOG between current and target, flag BREAKING / DEPRECATED / MIGRATION keywords, pause for explicit user confirmation before applying the bump.
  • Auto-reversion — if Fast-Track fails parity or the build fails post-bump, the skill offers to switch back to Standard mode for deeper analysis instead of grinding on retries.
  • Org-level fan-out is opt-in only — never auto-trigger; org enumeration burns API rate limit and surfaces non-JS noise.

In scope for this skill: npm, pnpm, yarn (classic/berry), bun.

Scope

Only JavaScript / TypeScript repos — npm, pnpm, yarn, bun ecosystems. Covers backend Node.js services, frontend bundles (CSR), server-rendered apps (SSR), and mixed SSR+CSR frameworks (Next.js, Nuxt, Remix, SvelteKit).

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.
