Does it support automated dependency updates?

Yes, it provides optimized configuration examples for tools like Renovate and Dependabot to automate minor updates while creating a review process for major ones.

How does this skill help with breaking changes?

It provides strategies for identifying breaking changes via changelog analysis, utilizing community codemods for automated refactoring, and writing custom migration scripts.

How does it ensure the upgrade doesn't break production?

It enforces a staged rollout approach combined with a comprehensive testing suite (Unit, Integration, and E2E) and a pre-defined rollback plan for failed attempts.

Can I use this with both npm and yarn?

Yes, the skill includes specific commands and best practices for both npm and yarn package managers, including lock file management and workspace upgrades.

What is the benefit of a compatibility matrix?

A compatibility matrix maps interdependent package versions to ensure that upgrading one library doesn't break its required peer dependencies in your specific environment.

開発者ツール

Manages complex software dependency updates through compatibility analysis, staged rollout strategies, and automated testing frameworks.

概要

The Dependency Upgrade skill provides a structured framework for navigating major version shifts and breaking changes in software libraries. It guides developers through comprehensive dependency auditing, semantic versioning analysis, and the creation of compatibility matrices to ensure ecosystem stability. By implementing a staged upgrade strategy—starting with strategic planning and moving through incremental updates and multi-layered validation—this skill helps modernize legacy codebases and resolve security vulnerabilities safely with minimal disruption and robust rollback protections.
