Introducing DepFixer GitHub Action: Catch Dependency Conflicts in Every PR
Automatically analyze your project dependencies on every pull request. Get health scores, conflict detection, and fix commands posted directly as PR comments.
We are excited to announce the DepFixer GitHub Action — a new way to automatically check your project dependencies on every pull request.
Dependency conflicts are one of the most frustrating issues in JavaScript projects. They cause build failures, runtime errors, and hours of debugging. Until now, most teams only discovered these issues after merging code or during local development.
With the DepFixer GitHub Action, you can catch these issues before they hit your main branch. Every pull request gets an automated dependency analysis with a detailed report posted as a PR comment.
- Health Score (0-100) — An overall rating of your dependency health
- Conflict Detection — Peer dependency mismatches, version conflicts, deprecated packages
- Fix Commands — Copy-paste ready npm commands to resolve issues
- Automatic Updates — Comments are updated on new pushes, no spam
1. Get your API key from the DepFixer dashboard. 2. Add DEPFIXER_API_KEY as a GitHub repository secret. 3. Create a workflow file in .github/workflows/depfixer.yml with the depfixer/action@v1 action.
That is it. DepFixer will now analyze your dependencies on every PR and post a detailed report.
The GitHub Action is available on all plans: Free (50 runs/month), Pro (500 runs/month), and Enterprise (unlimited). View your usage in the dashboard.
Check out the full setup guide in our documentation at docs.depfixer.com/guides/github-action, or head to your dashboard to generate an API key and start catching dependency issues in your CI/CD pipeline today.
