Weekly library version & migration digest
Every Monday, check Context7 for the current documented version, API, and migration notes of the libraries your project depends on — emailed as a short upgrade to-do list.
Every Monday, look up the current documented state of the libraries my project depends on and email me a short digest of where I'm behind and what upgrading would involve. Read and report only — never install or change any dependency. Tell me my dependencies below (name + the version I'm on), then each run: - My key dependencies: <e.g. react@18.2, next@14.2, prisma@5.9, zod@3.22, stripe-node@13.x> 1. Pull current docs. For each library, use Context7 to fetch the current documentation and the latest stable version it documents. Note the version, and whether it's ahead of the version I'm on. 2. Flag breaking changes & migrations. Where the documented version is a major bump over mine, look in Context7's docs for migration guides, "breaking changes", deprecations, or renamed APIs, and summarize what an upgrade would involve. Be honest: report what the docs actually say — don't guess a changelog Context7 doesn't surface. 3. Optional recency check. If a library looks like it moved recently, run a web search for its latest release notes to confirm the version and date, and link it. 4. Prioritize and email. Rank by urgency: security/breaking-change upgrades first, then majors with a clear migration path, then minor/patch bumps. For each: library, my version → latest, one-line "what changed", and a docs link. If I'm current on everything, say so plainly. Only report versions and changes you actually found in Context7 or a real release-notes page — never invent a version number.
How it works
- Attach Context7 on the Connections page (a key is optional but raises the rate limit) — the routine pulls current, up-to-date documentation for the libraries you name.
- It compares the documented latest version against the version you're on, then surfaces the migration notes for any major bump — so upgrade work stops sneaking up on you.
- Keep "Email me the result" on to get a short, prioritized upgrade to-do list every Monday.
Make it yours
- List your real dependencies with the version you're pinned to — the tighter the list, the more useful the digest.
- Change the cadence — weekly for an active project, monthly for a stable one.
- Narrow the scope — only your framework and data layer, or only libraries with a history of breaking changes.
This routine reads documentation and reports — it never installs, updates, or edits your dependencies. It tells you what an upgrade involves; you decide when to do it.
