Use when

Trigger signals that make this skill the right owner

  • package manager lockfile workspace monorepo dependency upgrade dependency removal new package license provenance transitive dependency supply chain generated files native extension SDK library public API

Do not use when

Anti-triggers — as binding as the triggers above

  • no task-local package dependency management decision is required

Required inputs

What must be supplied before this skill can decide anything

  • current task contract
  • selected primary Professional Skill
  • task-local trigger evidence

Output contract

What this skill owes the next role

  • dependency decision with repository authority, capability rationale, resolved-graph delta, lockfile evidence, lifecycle and provenance review, compatibility effects, and removal proof
  • package-risk evidence handoff with graph and artifact scope, scanner, license, and provenance artifacts, accepted specialist or policy-owner decision, exceptions, proof limits, and residual risk

Escalation signals

When this skill must hand the decision back

  • Dependency graph changes can introduce vulnerabilities license obligations install side effects runtime incompatibility hidden monorepo coupling and unreproducible builds
