Read-only supply-chain audit of packages and agent extensions: lockfiles, typosquats, dependency confusion, install scripts, licenses, CVEs. Use when asked if a package, manifest change or bot bump is safe.

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

# Dependency Audit

Audit the third-party dependency graph — manifests, lockfiles, and the packages they resolve to — for supply-chain risk, before it ships with the product. Read-only: it reports findings and a verdict; it does not upgrade, pin, or remove anything. To act on the report, call the Skill tool with "awesome-dependency-upgrade".

Two phases: passive (reading manifests, lockfiles, license files, changelogs already on disk — no gate) and active (anything that reaches a registry or scanner: `npm audit`, `pip-audit`, `osv-scanner`, registry metadata lookups — propose the commands and wait for approval first). Default to passive; say what staying passive leaves unverified.

## Scope and method

1. Establish scope — the whole graph, one manifest, or one diff (a bot bump, a new package). Name the ecosystems found (`package.json`, `requirements.txt`/`pyproject.toml`, `go.mod`, `Cargo.toml`, `pom.xml`/`gradle`, `Gemfile`). Include the repo's agent extensions in the graph when present — `.claude/`, `.agents/`, `.cursor/`, `.gemini/` skill and plugin folders, `.mcp.json` and equivalent MCP server lists, plugin-marketplace references, and any agent hook manifest. They install and

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add khasky/awesome-agent-skills/awesome-dependency-audit@sha256:9b41cdcc3eec5a37

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.a19c2a5, 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.
