dependency_audit

dependency_audit is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jxoesneon/Ciel. It costs 16 tokens per session (322 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A dependency-auditing skill that checks project packages for known security problems and outdated versions. Dependencies are external libraries that a project relies on; a CVE is a published identifier for a security vulnerability.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan projects, filter findings by severity, find available updates, and explain specific CVEs.
Why use it?
It brings vulnerability findings and update paths together across several programming ecosystems, helping identify risky packages before they cause problems.

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

dependency_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 7d 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.

What it actually says

dependency_audit

Scan project and acquired skills for vulnerable or outdated dependencies.

Operations

  • audit.scan(path) — aggregated across ecosystems.
  • audit.by_severity(path, min) — filter.
  • audit.updates(path) — available update paths.
  • audit.explain(cve_id) — fetch CVE details with web_fetch.

I/O Contract

io_contract:
  input: { op, path, "min_severity?" }
  output: { findings: [ { pkg, version, cve, severity, fix_version } ] }
  idempotent: true
  side_effects: [network]

Backends

Calls npm audit, pip-audit, cargo audit, bundle audit, govulncheck as available. Cross-checks with OSV database via web_fetch.

Policy

acquisition.config.cve_threshold blocks skill integration when exceeded.

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.
