chore(deps): adopt Renovate, remove Dependabot (ADR-0004)#27
Merged
Conversation
python-template was the org's last dependency-management holdout still on Dependabot. Replace .github/dependabot.yml with a standalone .github/renovate.json5 (config:recommended) matching the org standard and the sibling template repos (drift-gate, chiseled). Enables the github-actions and pep621 managers for the repo's actual dependency files. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

…4) (#28) ## Summary Round-3 doc-accuracy fix (AUDIT-2026-05-28 round 2). `PLAN.md` still asserted **Dependabot** as the chosen dependency-update tool, contradicting the shipped state after PR #27 (merged): this repo adopted **Renovate** (`.github/renovate.json5`) and removed Dependabot (`.github/dependabot.yml` deleted), per **ADR-0004**. Verified current state before editing: - `gh api .../contents/.github/renovate.json5` -> exists - `gh api .../contents/.github/dependabot.yml` -> 404 ## Stale references reconciled | Where | Before | After | | --- | --- | --- | | Resolved Decision #5 | "**Dependabot, not Renovate.**" | "**Renovate, not Dependabot.**" — superseded by ADR-0004, cites `renovate.json5` config + PR #27 removal | | Phase 2 TODO | `[ ] Add Dependabot version updates...` | `[x]` done via Renovate (ADR-0004), not Dependabot | | Security policy | "Use **Dependabot** version updates..." | "Use **Renovate** version updates (`.github/renovate.json5`, per ADR-0004)..." | | `uv` pilot "not locked yet" | "Dependabot support exists, but..." | "Dependency-bot support exists (the repo uses Renovate per ADR-0004...)..." | | `uv` security-surface caveat | "Dependabot alerts and updates" | "Dependabot security alerts (advisory visibility; version updates handled by Renovate per ADR-0004)" | ## Left as historical (intentional) The **Research Anchors** bibliography (lines ~1085-1165) records docs reviewed during planning, including the `uv`+Dependabot and `uv`+Renovate integration links and the "GitHub Dependabot for Actions" doc. These are accurate tool-*capability* statements and genuine planning history — not false current-state assertions — so they are preserved. ## Validation - `markdownlint-cli2 PLAN.md` (repo `.markdownlint-cli2.jsonc`) -> **0 errors** - `diff --stat`: `PLAN.md | 30 +++--, 19 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-)` DO NOT MERGE. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

NWarila/python-templatewas the org's last dependency-management holdout (per AUDIT-2026-05-28): it still shipped.github/dependabot.yml(github-actions + pip, weekly) and had no Renovate config. Org standard (ADR-0004) is Renovate everywhere.
