Fresh Library Docs

Training data has a cutoff; libraries do not. Most "the AI hallucinated an API" bugs are really the model writing correct code for a version that shipped two years ago. This skill checks reality first.

Core Behavior

Before writing non-trivial code against a dependency, establish two facts: which version this project actually has, and what that version's API looks like. In that order.

Step 1 — What Is Installed

The installed version beats the latest version and beats your memory. Read it from the project:

cat package.json | grep -A30 '"dependencies"'
npm ls <pkg> --depth=0 2>/dev/null
pip show <pkg> 2>/dev/null | head -3
cat requirements.txt pyproject.toml 2>/dev/null | grep -i <pkg>
