dependency-mapping

dependency-mapping is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from WellApp-ai/Well. It costs 14 tokens per session (1,154 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A method for mapping dependencies between implementation slices, meaning separate pieces of a feature or project. It uses a Design Structure Matrix, a table showing which pieces rely on others, to calculate risk and order the work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build a dependency matrix, measure how many other slices each slice affects or relies on, rank implementation risk, and recommend a build sequence.
Why use it?
It shows which tasks are blockers or risky to start early, reducing rework caused by implementing pieces in the wrong order.

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

dependency-mapping 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.

Dependency Mapping Skill

Map dependencies between implementation slices using Design Structure Matrix (DSM), calculate risk scores, and recommend implementation sequence.

When to Use

  • During Ask mode Phase 2 (CONVERGE)
  • When planning multi-slice features
  • Before phasing to understand risk order

Instructions

Phase 1: Build DSM Matrix

Create a square matrix with slices on both axes. Mark dependencies with *:

         | #1.1 | #1.2 | #2.1 | #2.2 | #2.3 | #3.1 |
---------+------+------+------+------+------+------+
#1.1     |  -   |      |      |      |      |      |
#1.2     |  *   |  -   |      |      |      |      |
#2.1     |      |  *   |  -   |      |      |      |
#2.2     |      |      |  *   |  -   |      |  *   |
#2.3     |      |  *   |  *   |      |  -   |      |
#3.1     |      |      |      |      |      |  -   |

Legend: * = row depends on column
Reading: Row #2.2 has * in columns #2.1 and #3.1 = #2.2 depends on #2.1 AND #3.1

Phase 2: Calculate Dependency Score

For each slice, count:

Metric Formula Meaning
Fan-in How many slices depend ON this? High = blocker, ship early
Fan-out How many slices does this DEPEND on? High = risky, ship later
Dependency Score Fan-out count Lower = safer

Phase 3: Calculate Leverage Score

Score each slice on reuse of existing patterns:

Level Score Description
Full Reuse 0 Uses existing component from design system/Storybook as-is
Extend 1 Extends existing component with new props/variants
Compose 2 Composes multiple existing components
New Pattern 3 Creates new component following design system tokens
New System 5 Requires new patterns not in design system

Check these sources before scoring:

  • /docs/design-system/components.md - Existing components
  • Glob **/*.stories.tsx - Storybook patterns
  • SemanticSearch for similar implementations in codebase

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.

dependency-mapping is a skill published in the GitHub repository WellApp-ai/Well (339 stars, last pushed 27d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 1,154 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
