deptry 0.14.0 was just released, bringing significant speed improvements: It is now up to 10 times faster than the previous release! For those unfamiliar with deptry; deptry is a command line tool to check for issues with dependencies in a Python project, such as unused or missing dependencies. GitHub: https://github.com/fpgmaas/deptry For some benchmarks of the new release, see the release notes: https://github.com/fpgmaas/deptry/releases/tag/0.14.0 The performance improvement was achieved by leveraging Rust to parse the AST and extract…

Weave▲237Hey HN, We’re building Weave: an ML-powered tool to measure engineering output, that actually understands engineering output! Why? Here’s the thing: almost every eng leader already measures output - either openly or behind closed doors. But they rely on metrics like lines of code (correlation with effort: ~0.3), number of PRs, or story points (slightly better at ~0.35). These metrics are, frankly, terrible proxies for productivity. We’ve developed a custom model that analyzes code and its impact directly, with a far better 0.94 correlation. The result? A standardized engineering output…

Hi HN! I'm Gabriel, the author of dep-tree (https://github.com/gabotechs/dep-tree), and I wanted to show off this tool and explain why it's being really useful at my current org for dealing with code complexity. I work at a startup where business evolves really fast, and requirements change frequently, so it's easy to end up with big piles of code stacked together without a clear structure, specially with tight deadlines. I made dep-tree [1] to help us maintain a clean code architecture and a logical separation of concerns between parts of the application, which is…

As software engineers we are often confronted with the decision of whether to code something ourselves or to add an existing library that does it for us. Whether we like it or not – we are adding dependencies sooner or later. And it's arguably good practice to check a new dependency beforehand: Is it maintained? By whom? How many issues does it have and how many of those are bugs? Are they being fixed? What's on the roadmap? What's the release frequency and how often do APIs break? One of our favorite solutions that already exist to answer such questions is the OpenSSF Scorecard project…

On-Call Health▲116We built On-Call Health because our industry has gotten very good at keeping systems healthy, but does little for the engineers on call managing them. On-call can be rough: 97% of engineers experience stress during incidents, 87% after, and 56% experience sleep disruption even without getting paged. We integrate with devtools like Rootly, PagerDuty, Linear, Jira, and Slack (for self-reported data). The tool doesn't provide a diagnosis, but it surfaces signals that a team or individual might be struggling. It's free to use and open-source (we also have a hosted version with mock data if you…

deptrust is a CLI that checks package versions for known vulnerabilities across npm, PyPI, crates.io, Go modules, RubyGems, NuGet, Maven, Packagist, pub.dev, CocoaPods, Hex.pm, Hackage, GitHub Actions, and more. It runs locally as a CLI and as an MCP server. It calls public package registry and OSV APIs directly; there is no hosted deptrust service. I built this because AI coding agents kept suggesting outdated or vulnerable package versions. I kept having to manually tell tools like Claude and Codex to use newer, safer versions. deptrust gives the agent a quick way to verify whether a…

Hello all, Very excited to share this project with you all! Panoptisch scans your Python file or module to find it's imports (aka dependencies) and recursively does so for all dependencies and sub-dependencies. It then generates a dependency tree in JSON for you to parse and enforce import policies. Supply chain attacks are no joke, and this is one way to transparently analyze your dependencies to see if any malicious imports are taking place. For example, your yaml parser, nor it's sub-dependencies should import socket, or sys. Panoptisch is in early stages, with known limitations (for…
