Description
Drift checks dependency updates against your actual repository. It computes API differences from published package artifacts where possible, maps changed APIs to exact files and call sites, keeps uncertainty explicit, and prepares reviewable fixes. MIT-licensed open source, available in VS Code, the CLI, GitHub Actions, and through MCP.

Could you build this?
No Program analysis, AST parsing across language ecosystems, semantic diffing of published binary/source artifacts, and precise call-site mapping require deep compiler and static analysis engineering.
What it would actually take: A real version requires building language-specific static analysis tools using compiler frontends (e.g., Roslyn, rustc, TypeScript compiler API, tree-sitter) to extract exported API signatures and construct ASTs. It needs an automated engine that computes public API diffs between package versions, performs cross-file call-graph analysis to detect breaking call-sites, and uses codemod engines (like jscodeshift) to suggest verified patches. This requires specialized domain expertise in programming language theory, static analysis, and package ecosystem metadata.
