WalkthroughThe change adds a ChangesDependabot remediation
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR updates dependency floors and adds a reusable security-remediation workflow, but the workflow can currently hide failed checks and does not require generated jobs to match alert details or remain limited to security updates. That creates a concrete risk of accepting incomplete remediation guidance, so the PR should be updated or explicitly accepted by an owner before merge. Possibly related PRs

version 1.92.0, note that graph is experimental and --local includes uncommitted
files, and use a YAML output file such as output.yml instead of JSON. Require
parsing the output to confirm mark_as_processed with no create or update action,
while retaining temporary-file cleanup.

In @.agents/skills/remediating-dependabot/SKILL.md:
- Around line 87-88: Replace the two assert checks in the Dependabot action
validation with explicit conditional failures that raise SystemExit: one when
mark_as_processed is absent from actions, and one when actions overlaps
create_pull_request or update_pull_request. Preserve the existing validation
conditions and ensure both checks remain active under Python optimization.
- Around line 50-55: Update the lock and advisory checks section in the
remediating-dependabot skill to enable uv’s audit-command preview feature when
invoking uv audit, while keeping uv lock --check unchanged.
- Around line 70-71: Update the command invocations in the remediation
instructions to run external verification binaries through uv run: use uv run --
dependabot for the graph and update commands, and apply uv run -- just to the
just commands in the referenced sections. Preserve all existing arguments and
command behavior.

Ran it on the M5: uv sync resolves clean (torch 2.13.0, transformers 5.15.0, pillow 12.3.0 land here), full CI selector 1439 passed, and a real klein-4b q8 generation through the new transformers/tokenizer path came out correct at 9.24 GB peak. LGTM.

thanks @fxd0h - click merge for me and we can trigger a re-run of https://github.com/mflux-community/mflux/security/dependabot |
but the findings remain open due to a upstream bug: dependabot/dependabot-core#15066 I'll refresh (allowed once hourly) to see if it self-heals |
