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…

I built a lightweight project management workflow to keep AI-driven development organized. The problem was that context kept disappearing between tasks. With multiple Claude agents running in parallel, I’d lose track of specs, dependencies, and history. External PM tools didn’t help because syncing them with repos always created friction. The solution was to treat GitHub Issues as the database. The "system" is ~50 bash scripts and markdown configs that: - Brainstorm with you to create a markdown PRD, spins up an epic, and decomposes it into tasks and syncs them with GitHub issues - Track…

Trusty - Search for an open source package to understand its trustworthiness based on activity, provenance, and more. Brought to you by the founders of projects such as Kubernetes and Sigstore. Hey, Luke here the CTO of stacklok. This is an early experimental preview of Trusty. We use statistical analysis to observe millions of packages and found that Malware typically follows certain patterns. We found this tool really useful to help understand the packages we our pulling into our software and wanted to share it with others. It's still early in and we have a lot more features that will be…

Pipask is a drop-in replacement for pip that addresses a serious security flaw: standard pip executes arbitrary code from source distributions during dependency resolution, without warning or consent. Pipask retrieves metadata through PyPI's JSON API first, then checks repository popularity, download counts, package age, and known vulnerabilities before allowing installation. It presents you with a pretty report and asks for you consent with installation, giving you control over what code runs on your system. More details in the intro blog post:…

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…

Our package registry ecosystem has a serious problem... and not just npm. People are aware of this but maybe this will make them a bit more aware

In light of the ongoing npm supply chain compromises, I built safe-install: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@gkiely/safe-install It brings a couple of protections I wanted from npm but are not built in. Similar to Bun’s trusted dependencies, it lets you disable install scripts by default and define a list of dependencies that are allowed to run build/install scripts: https://bun.com/docs/guides/install/trusted It also supports blocking exotic sub-dependencies, similar to pnpm’s `blockExoticSubdeps` setting:…

I finally got tired of XKCD #2347 living rent-free in my head, so I built Stacktower: a tool that takes any real package’s dependency graph and turns it into an actual tower of bricks. Along the way I had to wrestle some surprisingly spicy problems. Full blog post here: https://stacktower.io The result is half visualization tool, half love letter to the chaos of modern dependency trees. Open-source, works with PyPI, Cargo, npm, and more. Code: https://github.com/matzehuels/stacktower

Tach is a pip package that lets you define module boundaries, automatically detect all cross-module dependencies, and then validate and enforce those dependencies. It also supports strict interfaces for modules by overloading `__all__`. The core static analysis is done in Rust, so all Tach commands run quickly. The goal of Tach is to help eng teams maintain velocity while scaling quickly, something we've seen break down a number of times. Give it a try!
