Dependency Health Check

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a transparent dependency-audit checklist, with some commands that should be approved before they install tools or change dependencies.

Install this if you want an agent to help audit project dependencies. Require explicit approval before running package installs, npx tools, `npm audit fix`, `pip-audit --fix`, or dependency removals, and prefer a branch, virtual environment, or container for scans that may touch the network or local tooling.

Finding
The skill directs the agent to install and execute additional tooling (`pip install pipreqs`) during analysis. Installing packages as part of a read-only audit expands the attack surface, can execute untrusted package code or dependency hooks, and introduces networked side effects that are not necessary for basic dependency inspection.
