dep-audit

dep-audit is a skill for Claude Code from sd0xdev/sd0x-harness. It costs 8 tokens per session (750 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only audit of software dependencies for known security vulnerabilities.

In plain words
What is it for?
It scans dependencies, reports issues above a chosen severity, detects the project's package ecosystem, and can attempt automatic fixes when requested.
Why use it?
It helps find risky third-party packages before they introduce security problems into an application.

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

dep-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 6d 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 Audit

Trigger

  • Keywords: dep audit, dependency audit, security audit dependencies, dep-audit

When NOT to Use

  • OWASP code review (use /codex-security)
  • Code review (use /codex-review-fast)
  • General security review (use /codex-security)

Workflow Steps

Step Goal Safety
audit Scan dependencies for vulnerabilities read-only

Failure behavior: report-all

Task

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS
  • --level <severity> — Minimum reporting level (low/moderate/high/critical), default: moderate
  • --fix — Attempt automatic fix

Step 1: Check for audit script

Use Glob to check if .claude/scripts/dep-audit.sh exists in the project root.

  • Found → run: bash .claude/scripts/dep-audit.sh $ARGUMENTS
    • If script succeeds, use its output and skip to the Output section.
    • If script fails, treat as a real audit failure (do not silently fallback).
  • NOT found → skip to Step 2 (do NOT attempt to run the script).

Step 2: Fallback (no audit script)

Detect the project ecosystem and run the audit manually.

Ecosystem detection (check project root for manifest files):

Manifest Ecosystem Audit Command Fix Command
package.json + pnpm-lock.yaml Node (pnpm) pnpm audit --audit-level {LEVEL} pnpm audit --fix
package.json + yarn.lock Node (yarn) yarn audit --level {LEVEL} yarn audit --fix or npx yarn-audit-fix
package.json Node (npm) npm audit --audit-level={LEVEL} npm audit fix
pyproject.toml Python pip-audit or safety check pip-audit --fix
Cargo.toml Rust cargo audit cargo audit fix
go.mod Go govulncheck ./... (manual fix)
build.gradle Java ./gradlew dependencyCheckAnalyze (manual fix)

Default {LEVEL} is moderate unless --level argument is provided.

If --fix is specified, run the fix command for the detected ecosystem after audit. If no recognized manifest file exists, report an error.

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.

dep-audit is a skill published in the GitHub repository sd0xdev/sd0x-harness (188 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 8 tokens to every session and 750 once invoked, about $0.0000 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.
