It queries OSV.dev first for speed and accuracy, cross-checks NVD for CVSS scoring, uses Exa for recent advisories, and checks GitHub Advisory for maintainer responses, then cross-references findings and prioritizes by CVSS score and exploitability — CRITICAL (9.0-10.0) fixed immediately, HIGH (7.0-8.9) before merge, MEDIUM (4.0-6.9) planned, LOW (0.1-3.9) documented — reporting fix versions and workarounds.

Out of scope: this is a single-dependency lookup, not a full project dependency sweep (use dependency-audit for that).
