ring:pinning-dependency-versions

ring:pinning-dependency-versions is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from LerianStudio/ring. It costs 102 tokens per session (1,396 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A dependency record that lists the exact versions of packages, services, and other technologies a feature will use, along with checks for compatibility, security notices, licences, and cost.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it during planning for large features to choose and justify specific dependencies before writing the implementation plan.
Why use it?
It prevents vague or conflicting technology choices from reaching implementation.

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

ring:pinning-dependency-versions 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 5d 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.

Dependency Map — Explicit Technology Choices

When to use

  • Schema (schema.sql / schema.prisma) passed Gate 5 validation
  • About to select specific technologies
  • Large Track workflow (2+ day features)

Skip when

  • Small Track workflow → skip to ring:writing-plans
  • Technologies already locked → skip to ring:writing-plans
  • Schema not validated → complete Gate 5 first

Sequence

Runs before: ring:writing-plans Runs after: ring:designing-data-model

Every technology choice must be explicit, versioned, validated against Ring Standards, and justified. The Dependency Map answers WHAT specific products, versions, packages, and infrastructure will be used.

Step 0: Standards Loading (HARD GATE)

Step 0.1: Read Technology Decisions from TRD

Read docs/pre-dev/{feature}/trd.md — extract: deployment.model, tech_stack.primary, project_technologies[].

If TRD metadata missing → STOP: "Go back to TRD (Gate 3) and complete Step 0.4."

Step 0.2: Load Ring Standards via WebFetch

Standard URL
golang/index.md https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LerianStudio/ring/main/dev-team/docs/standards/golang/index.md
typescript.md https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LerianStudio/ring/main/dev-team/docs/standards/typescript.md
frontend.md https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LerianStudio/ring/main/dev-team/docs/standards/frontend.md
devops.md https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LerianStudio/ring/main/dev-team/docs/standards/devops.md
sre.md https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LerianStudio/ring/main/dev-team/docs/standards/sre.md

Step 0.3: Generate PROJECT_RULES.md (OUTPUT)

Using TRD project_technologies[], create docs/PROJECT_RULES.md with: deployment model, tech stack, per-category decisions (PRD requirement, technology, version, rationale, cloud service, on-premise alternative), version matrix, security/compliance notes.

Mandatory Workflow

Phase Activities
1. Evaluation Ring Standards loaded; map TRD components to tech candidates; validate against Ring Standards; map the schema file (schema.sql / schema.prisma) to storage; map openapi.yaml contracts to protocols; check team expertise; estimate costs
2. Selection Per technology: check Ring Standards (mandatory/prohibited), specify exact version, list alternatives with trade-offs, verify compatibility, check security (CVEs), validate licenses, calculate costs
3. Gate 6 Validation All dependencies explicit; no conflicts; no critical CVEs; licenses compliant; costs documented; all components mapped

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.

ring:pinning-dependency-versions is a skill published in the GitHub repository LerianStudio/ring (211 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 102 tokens to every session and 1,396 once invoked, about $0.0005 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 2026-09-03.
