Audit Dependency Security and Generate SBOMs
Dependency updates can introduce vulnerable or untrusted packages. This skill guides audits, safer updates, SBOM creation, and CI checks.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "dependency-security" from https://skillstore.io/skills/doyajin174-dependency-security.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/doyajin174-dependency-security/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "dependency-security". Review a project that has high npm audit findings and stale dependencies.
Expected outcome:
- Prioritized high and critical vulnerabilities for immediate remediation.
- Separated patch, minor, and major updates into safer review groups.
- Recommended test and lockfile checks before committing dependency changes.
Using "dependency-security". Add dependency checks to a GitHub Actions workflow.
Expected outcome:
- A CI plan that installs with npm ci and runs audit gates.
- An SBOM generation step with artifact retention guidance.
- Notes about command approval and version-pinned security tools.
Using "dependency-security". Evaluate whether to use a new npm package.
Expected outcome:
- A package trust checklist covering maintenance, license, and vulnerability status.
- Decision guidance for accepting, delaying, or replacing the dependency.
Security Audit
Medium RiskMost static findings are false positives from Markdown fences, documentation links, and .npmrc hardening examples. I found no prompt injection, credential collection, or exfiltration intent, but the skill does recommend unpinned npx execution for several tools, which creates supply-chain risk.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: HighWhat You Can Build
Review a New Package
Check package reputation, maintenance, license fit, and audit results before adding it to a project.
Prepare a Security Review
Create an audit checklist, update dependencies, and produce an SBOM for review evidence.
Add CI Dependency Gates
Add pipeline steps that run npm audit, preserve lockfiles, and publish SBOM artifacts.
Try These Prompts
Review this npm project for dependency security. Summarize audit risks, outdated packages, and safe next steps before running any commands.
Evaluate whether I should add this npm package. Check maintenance, downloads, license compatibility, known vulnerabilities, and safer alternatives.
Design an SBOM generation workflow for this repository. Include tool choice, output format, storage location, and CI artifact handling.
Build a CI dependency security plan with audit thresholds, lockfile enforcement, update cadence, SBOM generation, and manual approval gates.
Best Practices
- Review audit output before applying automatic dependency fixes.
- Commit lockfiles and use deterministic installs in CI.
- Pin security tooling versions when running external package commands.
Avoid
- Running forced dependency fixes without tests or changelog review.
- Using unpinned npx tools in automated security pipelines.
- Ignoring moderate vulnerabilities because they are not currently blocking.
