Critical
Dependencies
Always use latest dependency versions
Official
Rule Description
When adding or updating dependencies, always use the latest stable version:
- Check the official registry before adding (rubygems.org, npmjs.com, pypi.org)
- Security vulnerabilities are fixed in newer versions
- Performance improvements accumulate over time
Do NOT use older versions. If the latest version has breaking changes, fix the
code to work with the new API. Never assume migration is "too hard" without
actually attempting the upgrade first.
