Action Summary

The ReleaseRun Stack Health Check GitHub Action automates dependency health analysis by scanning project files (e.g., package manifests, Dockerfiles, Terraform configurations) for outdated versions, end-of-life dependencies, known CVEs, and overall version health. It provides a clear A-F grade for the project’s tech stack and can post reports as PR comments, fail builds based on threshold grades, or generate JSON outputs for further scripting. This action streamlines dependency management and enhances software security by making stack health an integral part of CI workflows.

What’s Changed

What’s New in v2

Repo-Aware Badges

Badges are now version-specific. Instead of generic ecosystem badges, the action detects the actual versions your project uses and generates badges for those specific versions.

Auto-Update README

New update-readme input. When enabled on PR workflows, the action runs releaserun readme --write to commit version-specific health badges directly to your README.

Badge Markdown Output

New badge-markdown output with copy-paste-ready markdown for your README.

Improved File Parsing

  • pyproject.toml support (PEP 621)
  • Better Dockerfile ARG handling
  • .nvmrc LTS alias filtering
  • docker-compose.yml service version detection
