Why this subagent
Dependencies rot until a security alert forces a scramble through a wall of breaking changes. This bumper keeps them current in small, reviewable steps.
It scans your lockfiles, groups safe patch and minor updates together, and isolates the risky major bumps. Each pull request carries a risk label and a changelog, and the test suite runs before you look. The green, low-risk ones are ready to merge, so staying current stops being a quarterly project.
