Dependents

None directly. Dependabot operates autonomously to create dependency update PRs.

Deployment

• dependabot-wui.jar is deployed to ContainerNursery, serving the dashboard at dependabot.wasmserver.com.
• dependabot-server.jar is deployed to ContainerNursery, accessible via the internal url://dependabot/ route.

Health Checks

• https://dependabot.wasmserver.com - WUI availability
• url://dependabot/ - Internal service server availability

Notes

• Dependabot follows the standard layered architecture: service server (logic and scheduling) -> WUI (dashboard).
• The service scans repositories for outdated dependencies and can create PRs to update them.
• The WUI provides visibility into which dependencies are outdated, pending updates, and update history.
• Integrates with Kotlin Directory to check for the latest available artifact versions.
