🛠️ How to build Multi-agent app for automating dependency security using LangGraph and Node.js
In modern software development, managing dependencies is critical to ensure security, maintainability, and compliance. Outdated or vulnerable dependencies can lead to security breaches, downtime, or compliance violations. Automating this process saves time, reduces human error, and ensures a more secure software lifecycle.
Whether you're focused on security or any other domain, this example provides a scalable framework for implementing multi-agent workflows. By the end of this guide, you'll not only have a working agent but also insights into adapting it for your specific requirements.
What are Multi-agents? 🤖
Multi-agent systems allow multiple specialized agents to work together autonomously to solve a problem. These agents perform distinct roles, such as data collection, analysis, decision-making, and reporting. By using LangGraph, we can easily define these tasks as nodes in a workflow and manage the communication between them.
Each agent performs a focused task and passes results to the next in the workflow. This modularity ensures:
➡️ Scalability: you can add, modify or replace agents as needed.
➡️ Flexibility: conditional logic allows for skipping unnecessary steps.
➡️ Maintainability: focused responsibilities make debugging and updates easier.
Why LangGraph? 🌐
LangGraph is a library designed to orchestrate and manage Multi-agent workflows. It provides a framework for connecting independent tasks (agents) in a logical sequence, enabling seamless collaboration between them. Whether you’re building a simple pipeline or a complex AI-powered system, LangGraph.js makes it easier to manage dependencies, state transitions, and modular workflows.
At its core, LangGraph.js:
➡️ Defines nodes: each task or agent is represented as a node in a directed graph.
➡️ Manages edges: connections between nodes determine the workflow's sequence and logic.
➡️ Handles state: passes data between nodes while maintaining a clear and predictable state structure.
By abstracting the complexity of Multi-agent coordination, LangGraph.js allows developers to focus on implementing agent logic rather than workflow mechanics.

Managing dependencies is crucial for software security and stability, but it can be time-consuming and prone to human error. Our latest blog explores how to automate this process using LangGraph and Node.js, creating a multi-agent system that handles dependency scanning, vulnerability analysis, and reporting.
In this guide, you'll learn how to:
✔️ Set up a Node.js project with TypeScript
✔️ Implement agents for scanning and analysis
✔️ Use OpenAI and Gemini to detect vulnerabilities and suggest fixes
✔️ Automate reporting for better dependency management

Rootstrap began working with @MasterClass in its early days with a small team of three. As MasterClass grew, so did we: at our peak, we provided more than 50 roles in Product Management, Design, Engineering, and Scrum Master positions, working on multiple projects across their entire platform. Several years later, MasterClass has taken on more roles internally, and we now allocate ~25 teammates.
We love and thrive in this kind of modular, scalable, and long-term partnership that encompasses so many ‘0 to 1’ and ‘1 to n’ opportunities for us to shine.

Our real secret sauce is in how we collaborate cross-functionally between Product, Design & Engineering from the beginning. Too often, companies try to solve Design and Engineering in two completely separate phases, but this invariably leads to rework if Engineering is only consulted on feasibility, complexity, and estimated timeline and development fees after Design, rather than throughout Design.
This is why Rootstrap often recommends a Technical Lead during the first few phases because it reduces the risk of 'over-designing' too soon and generally keeps the overall project on time and on budget.
Rather than finish the Design phase with only a high-fidelity prototype, our approach means we can also prepare a complete engineering backlog, roadmap, and estimated scope in order to roll right into development while providing our clients with transparent and modular pricing.

How Rootstrap Estimates Timeline & Fees: Transparent Pricing Product Managers, Designers, and Engineers ‘storymap’ each new product or feature, scoring each user story for estimated level of effort using the Fibonacci sequence (1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13). → Storymapping: A score of 1 may take one person half a day, while higher scores could involve multiple people collaborating over several days. → Estimation: We add up all the story points by ‘epic’ or major feature, and the overall total as well. Leveraging our experience with over 700 product launches, we translate these story points into: 1) a dynamic team allocation, adjusting in skills and size over time for cost efficiency, and 2) an estimated timeline in weeks with a high level of confidence level based on what we know. → Pricing: We calculate a transparent price estimate using per-person weekly rates for quarter-time (10 hrs), half-time (20 hrs), or full-time (40 hrs), adjusted for role and seniority. → Modular: Our transparent pricing model supports an incremental development approach, making it easy to scrutinize and modify. If we estimate a lot of story points for a particular epic or feature, but you don’t think it should be so complex, or you don’t want to prioritize it given the development time and fees, then we workshop with you to simplify or deprioritize altogether. This is how we tightly and collaboratively manage the overall roadmap and fees to meet your goals.

0 to 1 + 1 to n 🚀 Creating something out of nothing ('0 to 1') is difficult. Doing it cost effectively in a timely manner with a high degree of confidence in achieving product-market fit at launch is even harder. This is why companies hire Rootstrap to help. Our long-tenured team (many have worked here for 5, 8, 10+ years) of product managers, designers, and engineers have launched 100s of product together. But Launch Day is just Day One. Next, the challenge becomes growing demand, retaining users, and scaling architecture ('1 to n'). Accelerating product-led growth with a data-driven approach, triaging customer pain points and operational growing pains, and scaling an expert team flexibly and affordably: it's all a grind. This is also why companies hire Rootstrap to help. We have scaled from 0 to millions of users numerous times, and are proud of our long-term partnerships with breakout brands such as MasterClass, The Farmer's Dog, and the world's largest youth sports organization for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
