taze is a lightweight CLI for upgrading dependencies in JavaScript/TypeScript projects and monorepos. It focuses on safe-by-default version bumps, powerful filtering, and configuration via flags or taze.config.(js|ts) so agents can orchestrate dependency maintenance workflows.
This skill is written for agents that:
- Need to review or perform dependency upgrades using
taze - Work in monorepos and must keep workspace packages in sync
- Must follow safety policies around tests, lint/typecheck, and upgrade strategy
