deps-upgrade

deps-upgrade is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from OutlineDriven/odin-claude-plugin. It costs 44 tokens per session (2,542 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A process for updating the external libraries and packages a project depends on, including their lockfiles and indirect dependencies.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for security fixes, major releases, compatibility sweeps, scheduled maintenance, deprecation cleanup, or a release-time lockfile audit.
Why use it?
It reduces security, compatibility, and reproducibility problems caused by outdated or loosely pinned dependencies.

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

deps-upgrade 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 4d 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.

Deps upgrade

Contract

Field Bound contract
Trigger CVE remediation, major upstream release, compatibility-forced sweep, scheduled dependency hygiene, pre-release lockfile audit, or a cadence-driven or vulnerability-triggered dependency sweep.
Authority Reversible local: writes only manifests, lockfiles, and compatibility code in the current repository (concern-atomic local commits) plus a temporary lockfile snapshot outside the tree for the pre/post audit; rollback is version control (revert the campaign commits or reset to the recorded pre-campaign HEAD). No remote mutation.
Side effect Updates local manifests, lockfiles, and compatibility code; creates concern-atomic local commits. No feature work, no refactors beyond compatibility code, no silent lockfile drift.
Done Selected upgrades are locked, tested at the required depth, migration guidance applied for majors, license/SBOM churn checked, and the final vulnerability scan is recorded. For a sweep, each update is classified on the risk ladder and verified, or deferred with a recorded reason.

Inputs

Must be supplied: a working repository with VCS history; toolchains for each in-scope ecosystem; and operator scope directives: which ecosystems and paths are in scope, the highest tier allowed (patch, minor, or major), and any package allowlist/blocklist. Optional: pinned target versions for specific majors, a CVE scanner choice (defaults to the ecosystem canonical scanner below), a vulnerability report or advisory feed naming affected dependencies, a cadence schedule, and freeze-window or deadline constraints that cap the tier ceiling. A major bump requires explicit human approval supplied at runtime. Before the first mutation, verify each required tool exists (command -v) and run the full test suite on the clean tree as the baseline; missing tools or a red baseline stop the run before anything changes.

Procedure

  1. Gate (no mutation yet): stop without changing anything if any holds: active feature branch with high churn; pre-release freeze window; mid-incident; the task is an API-break-driven refactor rather than a dependency upgrade. Report which gate tripped. Done when: all gates pass or the tripped gate is reported without mutation.
  2. Bound scope: fix from the operator directives the ecosystem list, path scope, tier ceiling, and allowlist/blocklist. Never widen during the run; findings outside scope become report items, not work. Done when: all scope fields are frozen.
  3. Baseline: record the pre-campaign HEAD sha and snapshot every lockfile to a temporary directory; this snapshot is the audit baseline and the rollback anchor. Done when: the HEAD and every lockfile snapshot are recorded.
  4. Inventory: enumerate manifests and lockfiles across the in-scope ecosystems. Canonical names are often extensionless (go.mod, Gemfile, pom.xml), so filter on filenames, not extensions; fd takes one glob per call, so anchor on canonical filenames with one regex:

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

deps-upgrade is a skill published in the GitHub repository OutlineDriven/odin-claude-plugin (35 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 2,542 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.
