Dependency Audit Skill

When to Trigger

• Before any production release
• Monthly cadence (add to sprint planning)
• After a CVE is publicly announced that might affect your stack
• When a team member says "we should update our packages"
• Before onboarding a new contributor (known-safe baseline)

Step-by-Step Process

1. Detect Package Ecosystem

Identify which package managers are in use:

package.json        → npm / yarn / pnpm  (Node.js)
requirements.txt    → pip                (Python)
pyproject.toml      → pip / poetry       (Python)
Gemfile             → bundler            (Ruby)
go.mod              → go modules         (Go)
Cargo.toml          → cargo              (Rust)

Run the audit steps for each ecosystem found.

2. Security Vulnerability Scan

Node.js

npm audit
# or
yarn audit
# or
pnpm audit

Python

pip install pip-audit
pip-audit

General (all ecosystems)

# If using GitHub: check Security tab → Dependabot alerts
# If using Snyk:
snyk test

Triage each finding:

Severity	Action
Critical	Fix immediately before any other work
High	Fix before next release
Medium	Schedule for current sprint
Low	Track, fix when touching related code

---

3. Outdated Package Scan

Node.js

npm outdated

Python

pip list --outdated

For each outdated package, check:

1. How many major versions behind? (1 minor = low urgency, 2+ major = high urgency)
2. Is it a direct or transitive dependency?
3. Does the changelog mention breaking changes?

---

4. Unused Dependency Detection

Node.js

npx depcheck

Python

pip install deptry
deptry .

For each unused dependency flagged:

• Verify it's truly unused (some are peer deps or used at runtime via config)
• If confirmed unused, remove from

  package.json

  /

  requirements.txt

• Re-run the app and tests to confirm nothing breaks

---

5. License Compliance Check

Flag any dependencies with licenses that may be incompatible with your project:

# Node.js
npx license-checker --summary

# Python  
pip install pip-licenses
pip-licenses

License risk tiers:

License	Risk
MIT, Apache 2.0, BSD	Safe for most uses
LGPL	Generally OK, check linking requirements
GPL	Risk if distributing proprietary software
AGPL	High risk — requires open-sourcing if used via network
Unknown	Must investigate before use

---

6. Produce the Audit Report

Write findings to

.agent/audits/dependency-audit-<YYYY-MM-DD>.md

:

# Dependency Audit — <YYYY-MM-DD>

## Summary
- **Critical vulnerabilities:** <N>
- **High vulnerabilities:** <N>
- **Outdated packages:** <N>
- **Unused packages:** <N>
- **License issues:** <N>

## Critical / High — Action Required

### <package-name> @ <version>
- **CVE:** CVE-XXXX-XXXXX
- **Severity:** Critical
- **Description:** <what the vulnerability is>
- **Fix:** Upgrade to <version>
- **Breaking changes:** Yes/No — <details>

## Outdated Packages

| Package | Current | Latest | Urgency | Notes |
|---------|---------|--------|---------|-------|
| express | 4.17.1 | 5.0.0 | High | Major version — review changelog |
| lodash | 4.17.20 | 4.17.21 | Low | Patch only |

## Unused Dependencies (safe to remove)
- `left-pad` — not imported anywhere
- `moment` — replaced by `date-fns` but not removed

## License Issues
- `<package>` uses GPL-3.0 — review with team before next release

## Recommendations
1. <prioritized action>
2. <prioritized action>

7. Execute Safe Fixes

For packages with patch or minor updates and no breaking changes:

# Node.js — safe updates only
npm update

# Python
pip install --upgrade <package>

After upgrading:

1. Run the full test suite
2. Do a smoke test of the running app
3. Commit with message:

   chore: dependency security updates <YYYY-MM-DD>

For major version upgrades, create a separate branch and task.

Rules

• Never auto-upgrade major versions in bulk — do them one at a time.
• Always run tests after any upgrade — even patch versions can break things.
• Keep the audit report even after fixes — it's a compliance record.
• Critical vulnerabilities block releases — no exceptions without explicit sign-off.
• Unused packages must be removed, not just ignored — they are attack surface.
