What it says it does

Audit a repository's dependencies to identify those that are unused (safe to remove), underused (few enough features used to vendor or rewrite), imported inefficiently (blocking tree-shaking), or deprecated/sunset (need migration). Use this skill when the user wants to slim down their dependency tree, reduce supply chain risk, remove dead weight from package manifests, identify libraries that could be replaced with a few lines of code, or do a general dependency health check. Covers Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, Rust, and other ecosystems. Invoke whenever the user mentions "unused dependencies", "dependency audit", "remove packages", "we don't need this library", "too many dependencies", "could we vendor this", "could we just write this ourselves", "bundle size", "tree shaking", or any variation of slimming down or cleaning up external dependencies.

Every number above came out of reading the file and its repository. Nothing is a judgement call, nothing is a model’s opinion, and nothing can be paid for. The full method is published. Source last committed 2026-08-20.

Put this measurement in your README

A badge carrying how many listings this index holds from the repository and how many pass every static structural check. It reads from this index every time somebody loads your page, so it changes when the measurement changes and there is nothing to keep up to date. Free, no account, and the value is not something you or we can set by hand.

Would rather not hotlink us? Every badge is also served in shields.io’s endpoint schema, so shields renders the image and your readers never talk to our domain:

Published by Toolproof, the masthead over this index and eight others. The method behind the number is at toolproof.kynth.studio/methodology, and the whole thing is readable as JSON with no key at /api.
