[Install in Cursor]    [Install via Web]

depsonar is an MCP server that keeps your projects' dependencies up to date, scans for vulnerabilities, detects framework migrations, and audits your entire dev infrastructure — directly from Cursor, Claude, or any MCP-compatible AI assistant.

Supports Node.js, Python, Rust, Go, PHP, Ruby, Dart/Flutter, Swift, and Kotlin/Java.

Why depsonar?

With AI-generated "vibe coding" projects, dependency maintenance is an afterthought. WordPress solved this with one-click updates. depsonar brings the same experience to modern development — plus security scanning, migration detection, and infrastructure auditing.

Features

Dependency Management

• Multi-language: 9 languages, auto-detected
• Framework-aware: SvelteKit, Next.js, Nuxt, Astro, Django, Laravel, Express...
• Safe updates: 3 levels (patch/minor/latest) with dry-run preview
• Batch operations: Update all projects at once
• Ecosystem grouping: Results grouped by Svelte, Supabase, Tailwind, Vite, etc.

Security & Compliance

• Live CVE scanning via osv.dev API (npm, PyPI, crates.io, Go, PHP, Ruby)
• Framework CVE database: Curated advisories for Svelte, Next.js, Vite, Express, Axios
• Native audit integration: npm audit, cargo audit, pip-audit, composer audit, govulncheck
• Secret scanner: Detects AWS keys, GitHub tokens, Stripe keys, database URLs, and more
• License compliance: Flags GPL/AGPL copyleft, non-commercial, and unknown licenses

Migration & Maintenance

• Migration detector: Identifies code patterns that need changing (Svelte 4→5 runes, Next.js Pages→App Router)
• Changelog preview: See breaking changes before updating
• Deprecated detection: Finds unmaintained packages and suggests replacements
• Health scores: 0-100 per project based on deps, security, lockfile, runtime
• Background checker: Scheduled scans via macOS launchd or Linux cron

Infrastructure Audit

• Runtime versions: Node.js, Python, Rust, Go, PHP, Ruby, Dart, Swift (EOL detection)
• Global toolchain: npm, pnpm, yarn, bun, cargo, pip, git, docker, vercel, supabase, wrangler
• Docker image audit: Detects outdated/EOL base images
• GitHub Actions audit: Flags deprecated actions across all workflows
• Environment check: .env sync, lockfile freshness, config validation

Quick Start

Option 1: npx (zero install)

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{  "mcpServers": {    "depsonar": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "depsonar@latest"]    }  }}

Automatic updates

Every install below keeps itself up to date, without restarting Claude or Cursor. The MCP client talks to a small supervisor (bin/supervise.cjs) that stays connected while the server runs behind it. At start-up and every 6 hours it asks npm for the latest depsonar, installs it in the background in ~/.soflution/mcp/depsonar/, and switches over as soon as no request is in flight (the client is told the tool list may have changed). A version that fails to start is rolled back at once and never picked again on that machine. npm checks the integrity of every download, and releases are published from GitHub Actions with provenance.

The only network call is that version check to registry.npmjs.org; nothing about your machine or your use is sent. Turn it off with NO_UPDATE_NOTIFIER=1 (or SOFLUTION_AUTO_UPDATE=0). Started directly with node dist/..., depsonar does not update itself and only mentions a newer version in its first tool result.

Option 2: Global install

npm install -g depsonar

{  "mcpServers": {    "depsonar": {      "command": "depsonar"    }  }}

Option 3: Clone

git clone https://github.com/Soflutionltd/depsonar.gitcd depsonar && npm install && npm run build

{  "mcpServers": {    "depsonar": {      "command": "node",      "args": ["/path/to/depsonar/bin/supervise.cjs"]    }  }}

Restart Cursor after editing the config.

All 23 Tools

Background Checker

The background checker scans your projects on a schedule and caches results. When you open Cursor, depsonar_alerts reads the cache instantly — zero wait.

1. A lightweight script runs every N hours via macOS launchd or Linux cron
2. Scans all projects, compares versions with registries
3. Writes results to ~/.depsonar-cache.json, exits immediately
4. Zero RAM between runs, zero AI tokens, zero cost

Setup from Cursor: "Setup background checking every 6 hours"

Configuration

Set your projects directory (auto-detected from ~/Cursor/App, ~/Projects, ~/Developer, ~/Code, ~/dev):

// ~/.depsonarrc.json{  "projectsDir": "/Users/me/my-projects"}

Or from Cursor: "Set my projects directory to ~/Code"

Supported Languages
