A procedure for sorting open Renovate pull requests. Renovate is a tool that automatically proposes updates to a project’s libraries and other dependencies.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review dependency pull requests across repositories, check their tests and merge status, and classify each as merge, close, or defer.
Why use it?
It helps decide which dependency updates are safe to merge, should be closed, or need more investigation instead of leaving many update requests unattended.

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

renovate-triage 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 12d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 51 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

renovate-triage

Live data

  • Open Renovate PRs authored by app/renovate on your repos: !gh search prs --author app/renovate --state open --json repository,title,number,url --limit 100 2>/dev/null || echo "gh unavailable or not authenticated"

When to activate

  • User says "renovate triage", "review dep PRs", "monthly deps", "batch deps".
  • It's the 1st of the month and deps are grouped monthly.

Skip if: the user is asking about a single specific PR (use a PR-review skill instead), or if Renovate isn't configured on their repos.

Steps

  1. Use the live PR list above. Do not re-fetch.
  2. Group by repo. One repo's PRs often share the same grouping rule.
  3. For each PR, fetch merge state and CI:
    • gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/{num} --jq '{mergeable, mergeStateStatus, title, labels}'
    • gh pr checks <url>
  4. Classify each PR:
    • Merge -- CI green, patch or minor bump, library is stable and well-adopted, no flags in the repo's Renovate config.
    • Close -- superseded by a newer PR, wrong repo, duplicate, or abandoned.
    • Defer -- major version bump, known breaking change, CI red that needs investigation, or a library that the repo pins deliberately.
  5. Output a table grouped by repo with recommended action per PR.
  6. Do not merge automatically. Present the plan; the user approves.
  7. After approval, merge in order, one repo at a time, verifying CI between merges (not in parallel).

Rules

  • Never merge a Renovate PR with unresolved security findings on the PR or the repo.
  • @types/*-only bumps can silently break builds -- always check CI is green before merging, not just "mergeable".
  • Major bumps always defer. React 18 -> 19, Next 14 -> 15, Node 20 -> 22, etc. These are planned work, not routine hygiene.
  • Close old superseded PRs before merging the latest one in a grouped series -- otherwise Renovate may reopen them.

Output

| Repo | PR | Bump | CI | Action | Notes |

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.
