# Thalarch Dependency Engineering
Dependency work changes code, build behavior, and supply-chain surface. Treat it as a compatibility
migration rather than a version-number edit.
## Preflight
Identify:
- current direct/transitive version;
- version constraint and lockfile;
- runtime/compiler/toolchain compatibility;
- why the dependency is needed;
- affected code paths and generated artifacts;
- repository policy for lockfiles/vendor directories.
## Current-source rule
When internet/research tools are available, use primary current documentation, release notes,
changelogs, migration guides, and vulnerability advisories for version-sensitive decisions.
Do not assume an API exists because a newer example online uses it; verify the exact selected
version and the project's resolved graph.
## Minimal-upgrade rule
- Change only the requested/required dependency set.
- Avoid opportunistic mass updates.
- Preserve lockfile determinism.
- Do not switch package managers/build systems as part of an ordinary library upgrade.
- Separate toolchain migrations from feature work when practical.
## Compatibility matrix
Check as relevant:
- source/API compatibility;
- binary/ABI compatibility;
- runtime minimums;
- compiler/plugin compatibility;
- serialization/schema behavior;
- platform/target compatibility;
- configuration/default changes;
- transitive dependency conflicts.
## Verification
Use repository-native dependency resolution plus targeted compile/test/static analysis an
