dependency-upgrade-management skillA

dependency-upgrade-management is agent-read markdown (skill) from aethrox/doctrine: Discipline for keeping dependencies current and deprecating capabilities safely, an inventory (SBOM) of what's actually shipped, security patches on a fast lane separate from routine/major upgrades, and a stated deprecation window (Sunset/Deprecation headers, N-2 support) before removing anything consumers rely on. Use when upgrading a dependency, triaging a Dependabot/Renovate PR, deciding whether an upgrade is safe to automerge, or planning to deprecate or remove a capability others depend on..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add aethrox/doctrine/dependency-upgrade-management@git:20260809.2a45dbb
Exact content
mdr add aethrox/doctrine/dependency-upgrade-management@sha256:28dfbaf4ea04c285

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
