What I Built

DepCast is a compatibility intelligence protocol for software package ecosystems. It answers a simple question: "Is it safe to upgrade this dependency right now?"

The core idea is that every failing CI build after a dependency upgrade is a signal — and these signals currently evaporate, unseen and unaggregated. DepCast captures them through a four-factor Compatibility Risk Score (CRS):

CRS(t) = 0.335·V(r) + 0.035·E(r) + 0.584·D(t) + 0.046·H(m)
