dependency-review SKILL.md skillA

dependency-review from mangowhoiscloud/geode is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add mangowhoiscloud/geode/dependency-review@git:20260906.dc9349e

Pins git:20260906.dc9349e in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Review GEODE dependency direction, composition boundaries, circular imports, and optional-dependency loading when changing package or subsystem dependencies.

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 & Layer Review Lens

Review against [code conventions](../../../docs/architecture/naming-conventions.md)
and the executable import-linter contracts in [pyproject.toml](../../../pyproject.toml).
The historical six-layer/plugin map is not the current dependency contract.

## Ownership and direction

```text
evolve -> evals -> core
evolve --------> core
```

`core` owns the runtime; `evals` measures it; `evolve` searches over runtime
evidence. Neither `core -> evals/evolve` nor `evals -> evolve` is allowed.
Within `core`, follow the named process/capability contracts rather than
inventing a numeric layer order.

- `core.wiring` composes services through constructors and existing typed contexts.
- Use a narrow, named Protocol at a real consumer/provider boundary. A concrete
  import inside the owning subsystem is not automatically a port violation;
  one implementation does not invalidate an existing isolation boundary.
- ContextVars carry request identity, diagnostics, or request-local state, not
  service-locator DI. Do not hide a forbidden dependency behind a late import.

## Review Checklist

### 1. Trace imports against the active contracts

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mangowhoiscloud/geode/dependency-review@sha256:dfa673b110cab871

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260906.dc9349e, 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.
