dependency-planner

dependency-planner is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from CUHK-AIM-Group/NeuroClaw. It costs 172 tokens per session (3,400 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning tool for installing missing software dependencies such as libraries, compilers, CUDA, or system commands. It checks the local environment and plans installations using official instructions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for identifying missing dependencies, checking system compatibility, finding authoritative installation steps, and preparing a safe installation plan.
Why use it?
It helps avoid incompatible or unapproved installations when another tool fails because something is missing.

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-planner 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 10d 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.

Dependency Installation Planner (Tool Layer)

Overview

Many NeuroClaw skills (especially deep-learning, neuroimaging, and custom model execution skills) fail due to missing dependencies — a key pain point identified in the MedicalClaw / OpenClaw-Medical-Skills evaluation.

This skill acts as the interface-layer planner that ensures safe, reproducible, auditable, and user-approved installations across the entire NeuroClaw hierarchy (interface → subagent → base tool).

Strict workflow (never bypassed):

  1. Parse the exact dependency/dependencies from the user request or error message.
  2. Automatically detect the local environment: OS family & version, architecture, Python version, conda/pip/virtualenv status, GCC version, NVCC/CUDA version (if GPU-relevant), available disk space & RAM.
  3. For each required package/tool, invoke the already-existing multi-search-engine skill (with Google search priority) to retrieve the latest official installation instructions from the authoritative source (e.g. pytorch.org, conda-forge, nvidia.com, github.com releases page, official docs).
  4. Perform compatibility analysis against the detected local system (CUDA/driver match, Python version support, gcc/nvcc requirements, OS limitations) and highlight potential failure risks (version conflict, missing sudo, large download, Windows WSL issues, etc.).
  5. Construct a clear, numbered, executable step-by-step plan, routing git-based installations through git-essentials and git-workflows when needed.
  6. Present the full plan, estimated time/size, risks, and exact commands to the user → wait for explicit confirmation (“YES”, “execute”, “proceed”, etc.).
  7. On confirmation: execute the plan safely (using conda/pip wrappers, environment isolation, logging), capture output, and provide success/failure report + rollback suggestions.

Core safety principles

  • Never install silently
  • Prefer conda / virtual environments over global installs
  • Always version-pin where possible
  • Log every command and output
  • Offer dry-run / plan-only mode
  • Integrate tightly with NeuroClaw’s self-evolution and safety strategy

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-planner is a skill published in the GitHub repository CUHK-AIM-Group/NeuroClaw (83 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 172 tokens to every session and 3,400 once invoked, about $0.0009 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (runs shell commands). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
