What it does

Outdated is an agent skill from codewithmukesh/dotnet-claude-kit. Dependency health report for .NET solutions: outdated NuGet packages, vulnerable versions, and commercial-license traps (MediatR, MassTransit, FluentAssertions, AutoMapper) — powered by the getnugetpackages MCP tool. Invoke when: "outdated packages", "check dependencies", "stale packages", "package audit", "dependency health", "are my packages up to date", "license check", "vulnerable packages", "nuget audit".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering MCP servers. It works with .NET. The repository describes itself as: Make Claude Code a .NET 10 Expert. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Tasks that involve MCP servers

Example prompts

“outdated packages”
“check dependencies”
“stale packages”
“/outdated”

Workflow steps

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2330089. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- dotnet
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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

Outdated loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 106 tokens; SKILL.md has 418 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~106
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~1.2k

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description: Dependency health report for .NET solutions: outdated NuGet packages, vulnerable versions, and commercial-license traps (MediatR, MassTransit, FluentAssertions, AutoMapper) — powered by the get_nuget_packages MCP tool.

/outdated

What

A three-layer dependency health report:

Inventory — every PackageReference per project, with TFMs and central package management awareness, via the get_nuget_packages MCP tool (no network, token-cheap).
Staleness + vulnerabilities — current vs latest stable, and known CVEs, via the dotnet CLI.
License screen — flags packages that moved to commercial licenses so an innocent dotnet outdated --upgrade doesn't silently change your legal position.

The output is a single prioritized table — vulnerabilities first, license traps second, staleness last — with a recommended action per row.

When

"check for outdated packages", "package audit", "dependency health"
Before a .NET version upgrade (pairs with /migrate Flow B)
After inheriting an unfamiliar codebase
Dependabot/NuGet audit warnings appeared and you want the full picture
Periodically on long-lived projects — quarterly is a good cadence

How

Step 1: Inventory (MCP, no network)

get_nuget_packages()                          -- whole solution
get_nuget_packages(projectFilter: "Api")      -- or one project

Returns per-project {Name, TargetFramework, Cpm, Packages: [{Id, Version}]}. Note Cpm: true — updates then belong in Directory.Packages.props, not the csproj. Flag mixed TFMs across projects while you're here.

Step 2: Staleness and vulnerabilities (CLI)

bash

dotnet list package --outdated
dotnet list package --vulnerable --include-transitive

Both need a successful restore first. If restore fails, fix that before auditing — a broken lock state makes version output unreliable.

Step 3: License screen

Check the inventory against the known commercial moves (full rationale in knowledge/package-recommendations.md):

Package	Commercial from	Free alternative
MediatR	13+ (Lucky Penny, RPL)	`Mediator` (martinothamar) — source-generated, MIT
MassTransit	9+ (v8 Apache, patches end 2026 then EOL)	Wolverine 6.x, or stay on v8 short-term
FluentAssertions	8+ (v7 stays Apache, frozen)	xUnit built-in `Assert` (kit default), Shouldly, AwesomeAssertions
AutoMapper	15+ (Lucky Penny)	Manual mapping (kit default) or Mapperly (MIT)

Show full SKILL.md (160 more words)Show less

A license flag fires when the project is on the free major and a naive "update all" would cross the boundary — that is the trap this step exists for.

Step 4: Report

One table, priority-ordered:

Priority	Meaning	Action
VULNERABLE	Known CVE in current version	Update now, test, deploy
LICENSE	Next major crosses a commercial boundary	Pin below boundary or plan migration
MAJOR	Behind a major (breaking changes likely)	One at a time, release notes first
MINOR/PATCH	Routine drift	Batch patches; minors one at a time

Step 5: Act (optional)

Offer to execute updates via /migrate Flow C — one package at a time, dotnet build && dotnet test between each. Never batch major updates: batched failures are unattributable.

MCP Tools Used

get_nuget_packages — inventory, CPM detection, TFM audit
get_diagnostics — verify the solution still compiles clean after updates

Example

User: /outdated

Claude: Inventorying packages (get_nuget_packages)...
  3 projects, CPM enabled (Directory.Packages.props), all net10.0.

  Checking versions and CVEs...

  | Package                  | Current | Latest  | Priority   | Action                          |
  |--------------------------|---------|---------|------------|---------------------------------|
  | System.Text.Json (trans.)| 10.0.2  | 10.0.10 | VULNERABLE | Update now (CVE-2026-XXXX)      |
  | MassTransit              | 8.3.0   | 9.1.2   | LICENSE    | v9 is commercial. Stay on v8    |
  |                          |         |         |            | (EOL end 2026) or plan Wolverine|
  | Serilog.AspNetCore       | 9.0.0   | 10.0.0  | MAJOR      | Update alone, check sink compat |
  | FluentValidation         | 12.0.1  | 12.1.1  | PATCH      | Batch with other patches        |

  1 vulnerability, 1 license trap, 1 major, 1 patch.
  Want me to apply these via /migrate Flow C?

/migrate — Flow C executes the updates this report recommends
knowledge/package-recommendations.md — vetted packages + licensing detail
knowledge/mediatr-to-mediator-migration.md — step-by-step MediatR exit
/verify — full pipeline after applying updates
