Why does it block the use of @latest version tags?

To prevent unreproducible builds and hidden incompatibilities that occur when dependencies update unexpectedly across different environments.

Does it support security scanning?

Yes, it mandates checking dependencies for critical CVEs and ensuring license compliance before they are added to the project.

When should I trigger the Dependency Map workflow?

Trigger this skill during 'Large Track' workflows (features taking 2+ days) after the Data Model is validated but before task breakdown.

What are Ring Standards?

Ring Standards are shared coding and infrastructure patterns (like golang.md or frontend.md) that this skill pulls from the LerianStudio repository to ensure project consistency.

What is the primary purpose of this skill?

It serves as a mandatory quality gate to ensure all technology choices are explicit, versioned, and justified before implementation begins.

Security & Testing

Enforces explicit, versioned, and validated technology selections for software projects using standardized engineering quality gates.

The Pre-Dev Dependency Map skill acts as a critical quality gate (Gate 6) within the Ring workflow system, ensuring that architectural decisions are backed by specific, versioned dependencies rather than vague tags. It automates the retrieval of organizational standards, validates technology choices against security and licensing requirements, and generates a PROJECT_RULES.md file to maintain environment reproducibility and team alignment. This skill is essential for Large Track projects where build stability and security compliance are non-negotiable.
