At a glance

A skill your agent uses when auditing project dependencies for known vulnerabilities, supply chain risk, or provenance issues — covers Go modules, Maven/JVM, and CI integration for automated scanning

  • Auditing project dependencies for known vulnerabilities
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, Audit Checklist, Go: Running the Audit and Maven/JVM: Running the Audit, plus 4 more sections
  • Calls go, mvn and pip; reaches vuln.go.dev and github.com
  • Supply chain risk

What it does

Dependency Vulnerability Audit is an agent skill from Habitat-Thinking/ai-literacy-superpowers. Use when auditing project dependencies for known vulnerabilities, supply chain risk, or provenance issues — covers Go modules, Maven/JVM, and CI integration for automated scanning

Its SKILL.md is about 2.1k 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 Security, covering Vulnerability scanning and Supply chain security. It works with Go. The repository describes itself as: A set of Claude Code and GitHub Copilot plugins providing the AI Literacy framework's complete development workflow — harness engineering, agent orchestration, literate….

When your agent uses it

  • Auditing project dependencies for known vulnerabilities
  • Supply chain risk
  • Provenance issues — covers Go modules
  • CI integration for automated scanning

Example prompts

  • “/dependency-vulnerability-audit”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9d35995. 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:

    • go
    • mvn
    • pip
    • npx
    • bundle

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • vuln.go.dev
    • github.com

    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 Vulnerability Audit loads about 2.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 824 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~53
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.1k

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 824 words (~2,145 tokens).

“Dependencies are the largest attack surface in most projects. This skill provides a structured audit process for Go and Maven/JVM projects, combining static manifest review with tool-driven vulnerability scanning.”
