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 Decide what to depend on, keep dependencies current, respond to advisories, and reduce supply chain risk. Stack-agnostic principles; specifics vary by package manager. --- ## When to use - Setting up dependency hygiene for a new or existing project - Responding to a security advisory - Major version upgrade of a key dependency - Adding a new dependency (evaluation, decision) - Removing a dependency (cleanup) - Audit of what's installed and what's actually used - Setting an update cadence and policy - Diagnosing a broken build after an update ## When NOT to use - General code review (use `code-review-web`) - Vulnerability scanning of infrastructure (use `security-baseline`) - Pinning vendor or service contracts (use `vendor-evaluation`) - Performance impact of dependencies (use `performance-optimization`) --- ## Required inputs - Package manager and lockfile in use (npm, yarn, pnpm, pip, gem, composer, etc.) - Current dependency list (production and dev) - Current advisories (run audit; check service like Snyk, Dependabot) - Update history (when were major dependencies last updated) - Risk profile (production criticality, change tolerance) --- …

How to install
mdr add rampstackco/claude-skills/dependency-management@sha256:33f58ba38944559cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260810.b3c37f1, 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.
