Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00047 | $0.00609 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00023 | $0.00304 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00122 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00061 |
Grade A, and why
deps-audit 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 8d 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 — 59 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Dependency Audit
Detect the project's package manager from its lockfile and run that ecosystem's audit + outdated tooling. Don't assume npm.
Detection
| Ecosystem | Lockfile | Audit | Outdated |
|---|---|---|---|
| npm | package-lock.json |
npm audit |
npm outdated |
| pnpm | pnpm-lock.yaml |
pnpm audit |
pnpm outdated |
| yarn | yarn.lock |
yarn npm audit (berry) / yarn audit |
yarn outdated |
| Python | requirements*.txt / uv.lock / poetry.lock |
pip-audit |
pip list --outdated |
| Go | go.sum |
govulncheck ./... |
go list -m -u all |
| Rust | Cargo.lock |
cargo audit |
cargo outdated |
Workflow
- Detect the ecosystem from the lockfile; run audit + outdated (parallel where possible)
- Report vulnerabilities with advisory ID + fix command using the severity table below
- List outdated packages: table of package/current/latest/type (major vs minor/patch)
- Check for obviously unused deps: grep imports in the source dir
Severity Levels
| Level | CVSS | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Critical | 9.0-10.0 | Fix immediately, block merge |
| High | 7.0-8.9 | Fix before next release |
| Moderate | 4.0-6.9 | Fix in current sprint |
| Low | 0.1-3.9 | Fix when convenient |
For each critical/high vulnerability report:
Package: <name>@<version>
Advisory: <CVE / GHSA / RUSTSEC id>
Severity: Critical
Description: <one line>
Fix: <ecosystem fix command, e.g. npm audit fix / cargo update -p <pkg>>
Rules
- Detect the package manager from the lockfile — never assume npm
- Prefer the project's own audit task if it defines one
- Focus on actionable items
- Prioritize: security > major updates > unused > minor updates
Error Handling
- Audit tool missing for the ecosystem → report which tool to install (e.g.
pip-audit,govulncheck,cargo-audit) and stop - Audit fails for a missing lockfile → generate it (install), then retry
- Outdated returns nothing → report all dependencies are current
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.

deps-audit is a skill published in the GitHub repository helderberto/agent-skills (14 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 609 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 2026-08-30.
