doorman

Dependency gatekeeper. Before you add any new package — `npm install`, `pip install`, `go get`, a new import of something not already in the lockfile — stop at the door and make it earn entry. Ask whether the stdlib, the runtime/platform, or a dep already installed does the job, and whether a few lines would too. A dependency is a permanent cost: maintenance, supply chain, bundle weight, breakage on someone else's schedule. Weigh size, last release, and transitive deps — not just "does it work." Supports intensity levels: lite, full (default), ultra. Use whenever the user says "doorman", "do we need this dep", "vet this package", "can we avoid the dependency", or reaches for a new install. Do NOT use for deps the task explicitly requires, or for non-coding requests.
