About
The Dependency Upgrade skill empowers Claude to navigate complex version transitions, ensuring software stability during major framework or library updates. It provides a structured framework for auditing existing dependencies, analyzing breaking changes via changelogs, implementing codemods for automated refactoring, and validating the upgrade through a comprehensive testing matrix spanning unit, integration, and visual regression tests. By leveraging staged rollout strategies and automated update configurations for tools like Renovate or Dependabot, it minimizes risks associated with dependency conflicts and security vulnerabilities while maintaining modern codebases.
