This is a submission for the : Crushing the Command Line
What I Built
I built a CLI tool in Go that automates safe dependency upgrades in Go projects using Amazon Q Developer. The tool addresses the common pain point of manually updating dependencies, which is often error-prone and time-consuming due to compatibility issues. Here's what it does:
Auto-scans Go projects for outdated dependencies
Uses Amazon Q to generate AI-powered compatibility reports
Predicts potential code conflicts before upgrading
Automatically applies safe upgrades, runs tests, and opens a GitHub PR
The tool streamlines the entire upgrade pipeline while integrating AI-powered risk analysis before making any changes — something that's often missing in conventional dependency managers
Demo
Demo Flow:
Run the CLI: ./q-dep-updater -path=~/dev/myproject -repo=me/myproject
See predicted conflicts before upgrades
PR automatically created once tests pass
Code Repository
How I Used Amazon Q Developer
Amazon Q Developer was the intelligence behind this tool. I used the q chat CLI interface to:
Scan the project and extract outdated dependencies in structured JSON
Predict compatibility conflicts based on code patterns and version diffs
Generate a compatibility report with AI-based suggestions for refactoring
By integrating Amazon Q directly into the upgrade workflow, I was able to:
Detect breaking changes before installation
Avoid unnecessary manual debugging
Ensure only conflict-free upgrades move forward
Tip:
I found Amazon Q Developer's ability to contextualize Go code very effective when fed with detailed prompts about version differences. Using structured output like JSON made it easy to integrate with the CLI logic.
