Use when auditing project dependencies for known vulnerabilities, supply chain risk, or provenance issues — covers Go modules, Maven/JVM, and CI integration for automated scanning.
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 Vulnerability Audit ## Overview Dependencies are the largest attack surface in most projects. This skill provides a structured audit process for Go and Maven/JVM projects, combining static manifest review with tool-driven vulnerability scanning. **Critical rule: Never judge a dependency as safe or unsafe based on your knowledge of its version number. Version numbers in your training data are stale. Always run the tools.** --- ## Audit Checklist ### For every project - [ ] Automated vulnerability scanner is run in CI (not just locally) - [ ] Direct dependencies are intentional and documented - [ ] No `replace` directives in `go.mod` pointing to local paths or forks - [ ] Dependency manifest is committed (not generated at build time) ### Go-specific - [ ] `go.sum` is committed alongside `go.mod` - [ ] `govulncheck` runs in CI and fails the build on known CVEs - [ ] No `replace` directives substituting public modules with local or private alternatives - [ ] `go mod verify` passes (confirms module content matches go.sum hashes) ### Maven/JVM-specific - [ ] Dependency versions are pinned (no version ranges: `[1.0,2.0)`) …

How to install
mdr add habitat-thinking/ai-literacy-superpowers/dependency-vulnerability-audit@sha256:b028fb1fb02aaf19The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260407.d7b2831, 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.
