Manage dependencies with version pinning, lock files, vulnerability scanning, and update strategies. Use when adding new packages, pinning dependency versions, scanning for vulnerabilities, updating outdated dependencies, or managing monorepo dependency graphs.
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 Management > **Purpose**: Manage third-party dependencies securely and reliably. > **Goal**: Reproducible builds, no vulnerable packages, controlled updates. > **Note**: For implementation, see [C# Development](../../languages/csharp/SKILL.md) or [Python Development](../../languages/python/SKILL.md). --- ## When to Use This Skill - Adding new packages or libraries - Pinning dependency versions for reproducibility - Scanning for known vulnerabilities - Updating outdated dependencies safely - Managing monorepo dependency graphs ## Prerequisites - Package manager installed (npm, pip, NuGet, cargo, etc.) ## Decision Tree ``` Dependency concern? +- Adding new dependency? | +- Actively maintained? (commits in last 6 months) -> Proceed | +- License compatible? (MIT/Apache -> OK, GPL -> careful) | +- Too many transitive deps? -> Consider lighter alternative | - Can you build it in < 1 hour? -> Maybe don't add dependency +- Updating dependencies? | +- Patch update (0.0.x) -> Usually safe, auto-update | +- Minor update (0.x.0) -> Review changelog, test | - Major update (x.0.0) -> Review breaking changes, plan migration +- Vulnerability found? …

How to install
mdr add jnpiyush/agentx/dependency-management@sha256:2101f56fd99b11b6The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
