check-dependency

check-dependency is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from sonatype/sonatype-cursor-plugin. It costs 40 tokens per session (505 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for checking one software dependency, such as an npm, Maven, PyPI, or Go package, for security, licensing, and quality concerns.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to evaluate a named package and version, review its risk summary, or find safer alternatives when problems are found.
Why use it?
It helps reveal known vulnerabilities, license conflicts, and maintenance risks before a library is added or while an existing one is investigated.

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

check-dependency 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 3d 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

Check dependency

Trigger

Use when you need to evaluate a specific dependency's security, license, and quality posture.

Required Inputs

  • Package identifier (one of):
    • Package name and version (e.g., lodash 4.17.21)
    • PURL format (e.g., pkg:npm/[email protected])
    • Maven coordinates (e.g., org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:3.12.0)

Workflow

  1. Parse the dependency identifier from user input or current file context.
  2. Convert to PURL format if needed:
    • npm: pkg:npm/<name>@<version>
    • Maven: pkg:maven/<groupId>/<artifactId>@<version>
    • PyPI: pkg:pypi/<name>@<version>
    • Go: pkg:golang/<module>@<version>
  3. Call getComponentVersion MCP tool with the PURL.
  4. Present findings in a structured format:
    • Security: Known vulnerabilities (CVEs) with severity
    • License: License type and compatibility concerns
    • Quality: Maintainability and reliability metrics
    • Developer Trust Score: Overall recommendation score
  5. If issues found, suggest alternatives using /find-safer-version.

Output

  • Component analysis summary
  • Risk assessment (Critical/High/Medium/Low/None)
  • Actionable recommendations
  • Link to detailed Sonatype Guide report

Example

User: Check lodash 4.17.20

Response:
## lodash 4.17.20 Analysis

**Risk Level**: High

### Security
- CVE-2021-23337 (High): Prototype pollution in lodash
- CVE-2020-8203 (High): Prototype pollution via zipObjectDeep

### License
- MIT License - permissive, commercial-friendly

### Quality
- Developer Trust Score: 72/100
- Last updated: 2 years ago

### Recommendation
Upgrade to lodash 4.17.21 which addresses these vulnerabilities.
Run `/find-safer-version lodash` for detailed upgrade options.

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.
