01 / WHERE SUPPLY CHAIN RISK HIDESDependency Armor
A package alert isn’t the whole story.
A component can arrive through another dependency, and an advisory may depend on specific versions or usage. The next step needs more context than a package name and a severity label.
THE INVESTIGATION QUESTION
How the component entered the build, which conditions apply, and what a tested upgrade would change.
DA / A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEWCONCEPTUAL
Potential pathConceptual view · Software supply chain security
The same advisory can lead to different decisions depending on the dependency path, affected behavior, and compatibility constraints.

a layer deeper.
The work we’re designing Dependency Armor to do.
Scope and availability will evolve as we build.
Understand the graph
Examine direct and transitive components in your software.
Contextualize advisories
Connect affected versions and reported conditions to your project’s dependency usage.
Plan the next version
Identify upgrade options and the compatibility questions your team should verify.
Give the agent context.
Manifests, lockfiles, software inventory, and compatibility constraints.
Bring back something useful.
Contextualized advisories, affected dependency paths, and upgrade options to test.
THE BOUNDARY
Inputs stay within an agreed scope. Findings and proposed actions are designed for your team to review. Exact integrations and data handling requirements will be defined as the product develops.

- A nested component matches an affected version range.
- INVESTIGATE
- Check the parent package, relevant usage, and available fixed versions.
- NEXT STEP
- Review the parent upgrade path and run compatibility checks.

ANIMATED 3D WORKFLOW / CONCEPT
A conceptual workflow for Dependency Armor. Select a stage to highlight the part of the investigation it supports.
Share the inventory
Start from manifests, lockfiles, or an available software inventory.
Investigate relevance
The agent relates advisories and version constraints to the dependency graph.
Review the upgrade
Your team evaluates suggested changes and tests the resulting build.
Where Dependency Armor
fits.
You need to understand a component advisory in the context of your dependency graph and a realistic upgrade path.

05 / A FEW QUESTIONSBefore you
Before you
ask.
Can I use Dependency Armor today?+
Dependency Armor is in development. We’re open to early conversations about your use case and can share progress as the product takes shape.
Is this just a list of vulnerable packages?+
The direction is to go further than a list: investigate why an advisory may matter to a project and help identify a useful next action.
Which package managers are planned?+
The supported ecosystems are still being defined. Share your manifests and tooling preferences in an early conversation.
