Staleguard Plugin for dependency freshness inspections for Maven, Gradle, and version catalogs

Staleguard Plugin for dependency freshness inspections for Maven, Gradle, and version catalogs

I recently published Staleguard, a free plugin that brings dependency freshness checking into the editor including severity-labeled warnings for outdated versions in pom.xml, Gradle build files, and libs.versions.toml, one-click version bumps that respect Maven properties and catalog version.refs, abandonment alerts with last-release dates, and a statistics/timeline tool window.

Alt+Enter on a libs. reference in build.gradle.kts and Staleguard resolves it back to the version catalog and offers to update the shared slf4j version key, with the changelog one click away.
