Project

Dependency upgrade workflows for reviewing outdated packages, applying safe updates, and verifying compatibility.

Workflow

  • Inspect package manifests, lockfiles, current dependency versions, and available update commands
  • Run the narrowest outdated or audit command first, such as npm outdated or npm audit
  • Apply patch and minor updates before considering major-version changes
  • Review changelog notes, migration guides, and generated lockfile diffs for risky packages
  • Run focused verification, then the broader relevant suite, and document any pinned or deferred upgrades

Commands

  • install: npm install
  • test: npm test
  • outdated: npm run outdated
  • deps:check: npm run deps:check
  • deps:update: npm run deps:update
  • deps:audit: npm run deps:audit

Principles

  • Review changelogs, release notes, and lockfile changes before broad upgrades
  • Prefer one dependency group at a time so regressions stay attributable
  • Run audit, focused tests, and the relevant full suite before reporting success
  • Document skipped major versions, risky transitive changes, and follow-up work
