Run Madge against a JS/TS production source tree to detect circular dependencies, find orphan modules, and visualize the module graph. Scoped to production code via `excludeRegExp` for test files. Use when a build compiles but throws `Cannot read property X of undefined` on a module that is clearly imported, or when a repo needs a CI gate that blocks new import cycles.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# madge-deps Madge analyzes JavaScript module graphs (AMD, CommonJS, ES6) and CSS preprocessor imports (Sass, Stylus, Less) per the [Madge README]. NPM deps and Node core modules are excluded by default. ## When to use - A bundle that compiles but throws `Cannot read property X of undefined` at runtime - likely a circular import causing partial module init. - Pre-merge gate to block any new circular dep. - Finding orphan files (no imports + no exports referenced) to delete. ## Step 1 - Install ```bash npm install -g madge # or per-project npm install -D madge ``` Optional Graphviz for visual graphs: | OS | Install | |---|---| | macOS | `brew install graphviz` | | Ubuntu | `apt-get install graphviz` | | Windows | `choco install graphviz` | Per the [Madge README]. ## Step 2 - Detect circular dependencies ```bash # Single entry point madge --circular src/index.ts # Whole directory madge --circular src/ ``` Exit code: 0 if none found, 1 if any circular path exists. Use directly in CI. ## Step 3 - Find orphans + leaves ```bash # Files imported by nothing madge --orphans src/ # Files that import nothing (terminal modules) madge --leaves src/ ``` …

How to install
mdr add testland/qa/madge-deps@sha256:78ee9621684298afThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.5, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
