Anvil - An Agentic Dependency Manager

Anvil is an AI-powered dependency upgrade system that autonomously analyzes, reasons about, and applies package updates.

Features

✧ Autonomous upgrade analysis with AI-powered reasoning
✧ Multi-format support: requirements.txt, poetry, uv, and conda environments
✧ Breaking change prediction and mitigation strategies
✧ Safe rollback on failure
✧ Changelog forensics to understand what's changing

Installation

Recommended: Install via pipx for isolation.

pipx install anvil-py

Or with pip (not recommended as it may conflict with project dependencies):

pip install anvil-py

Quick Start

Go to your project directory (supports pip, poetry, or uv) and run:

anvil upgrade

Anvil will:

1. Detect your dependencies.
2. Check for updates.
3. Fetch changelogs & perform AI Forensic Analysis.
4. Safely Trial Install, Test, and Commit upgrades.

Usage

Interactive Upgrade (Recommended)

The main way to use Anvil is the interactive wizard:

anvil upgrade

Analysis Only (Dry Run)

If you just want to see what packages are outdated and read their changelogs without making changes:

anvil check .
