What it does
Dependency Auditor is an agent skill from alirezarezvani/claude-skills. Audit and manage dependencies across multi-language projects. Identifies vulnerabilities, license conflicts, transitive dependency risks, and safe-upgrade paths. Use when auditing third-party packages before release, investigating a CVE, planning a major version bump, or running a license-compliance review. Examples: 'audit our npm dependencies', 'do we have GPL contamination', 'plan the upgrade to React 19'.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 20 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `README.md`, `assets/sample_package.json` and `expected_outputs/sample_vulnerability_report.json`).
It sits in Legal & Compliance, covering Regulatory compliance and Vulnerability scanning. It works with npm, React and Ruby. The repository describes itself as: 380 Claude Code skills & agent skills & plugins (30+ Agents, 70+ custom commands, 380+ skills, customizable references, scripts)for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, and 8… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Auditing third-party packages before release
- Investigating a CVE
- Planning a major version bump
- Running a license-compliance review
Example prompts
- “audit our npm dependencies”
- “do we have GPL contamination”
- “plan the upgrade to React 19”
- “/dependency-auditor”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Prioritize security: address high/critical findings immediately; license compliance before functionality.
- Gradual updates: incremental upgrades with thorough testing; feature flags for risky bumps.
- Cadence: security scans per commit; license audits monthly; full audit quarterly.
- False positives: whitelist with documentation; contact maintainers for license ambiguity.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 19392f7. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3npmcargo
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Dependency Auditor loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~12k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 108 tokens; SKILL.md has 380 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Examples: 'audit our npm dependencies', 'do we have GPL contamination', 'plan the upgrade to React 19'.
Dependency Auditor
Skill Type: POWERFUL · Category: Engineering · Domain: Dependency Management & Security
Offline, deterministic dependency auditing across 8+ package ecosystems. The three scripts are pattern-matchers over manifests/lockfiles — they do not call live advisory APIs; pair their findings with npm audit / pip-audit / cargo audit for current CVE coverage.
Quick Start
# 1. Scan for vulnerabilities (built-in offline CVE pattern set; exit non-zero on high severity)
python3 scripts/dep_scanner.py /path/to/project --format json --fail-on-high -o scan.json
# 2. Check license compliance and conflicts
python3 scripts/license_checker.py /path/to/project --policy strict --format json -o licenses.json
# 3. Plan upgrades from the scanner's inventory
python3 scripts/upgrade_planner.py scan.json --risk-threshold medium --timeline 90 --format json -o plan.jsonConsume the outputs: scan.json findings drive which packages to pin/patch now; licenses.json conflicts go to the user as a legal-risk list; plan.json orders upgrades by risk with rollback notes. --quick-scan skips transitive deps; --security-only limits the plan to security fixes.
Verification loop: after applying upgrades, re-run step 1 and assert 0 high-severity findings before closing the audit.
Supported Ecosystems
| Language | Manifests parsed |
|---|---|
| JavaScript/Node | package.json, package-lock.json, yarn.lock |
| Python | requirements.txt, pyproject.toml, Pipfile.lock, poetry.lock |
| Go | go.mod, go.sum |
| Rust | Cargo.toml, Cargo.lock |
| Ruby | Gemfile, Gemfile.lock |
| Java | pom.xml, gradle.lockfile |
| PHP | composer.json, composer.lock |
| C#/.NET | packages.config, project.assets.json |
License Classification
- Permissive: MIT, Apache 2.0, BSD (2/3-clause), ISC
- Copyleft (strong): GPL v2/v3, AGPL v3 — flags contamination risk in permissive projects
- Copyleft (weak): LGPL v2.1/v3, MPL 2.0
- Proprietary / Dual / Unknown — unknown licenses are surfaced for manual review
The checker analyzes license inheritance through dependency chains and emits conflict pairs with remediation suggestions.
Upgrade Risk Matrix
| Risk | Update type | Handling |
|---|---|---|
| Low | Patch, security fixes | Apply immediately |
| Medium | Minor with new features | Batch into scheduled update |
| High | Major version, API changes | Dedicated migration task + tests |
| Critical | Known breaking changes | Planned migration with rollback procedure |
Prioritization: security patches > bug fixes > feature updates > major rewrites; deprecated features get immediate attention.
