MUST USE when updating, migrating, or auditing project dependencies: upgrading packages, fixing security vulnerabilities (CVEs), resolving breaking changes, migrating to new major versions, or auditing outdated dependencies. Enforces incremental updates with verification at each step. Distinct from systematic-debugging (which fixes application bugs) and refactoring (which restructures application code). Triggers on: "update dependencies", "upgrade packages", "npm update", "pip upgrade…
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 Update one thing at a time. Verify after each. Never batch major upgrades. ## Why This Exists Dependency updates look simple — bump a version number, run install, done. In practice, they're one of the most common sources of hard-to-diagnose breakage: silent API changes, peer dependency conflicts, transitive dependency resolution shifts, and build tool incompatibilities. This skill enforces a structured approach that catches breakage at the smallest possible blast radius. ## Phase 1: Audit Before changing any versions, understand what needs updating and why. 1. **List outdated dependencies:** - Node.js: `npm outdated` or `yarn outdated` - Python: `pip list --outdated` or `pip-audit` - Go: `go list -m -u all` - Rust: `cargo outdated` - General: check the package manager's audit/outdated command 2. **Categorize each update by urgency:** - **Security** — CVE or advisory with known exploit. Update immediately. - **Breaking** — major version bump with documented breaking changes. Plan carefully. - **Feature** — minor/patch version with new features or non-breaking fixes. Low risk. …

How to install
mdr add brunob54/superpowers-orchestrator/dependency-management@sha256:59935a05103e476dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260508.ae16bf3, 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.
