Necropolis Turns package.json Dependencies into a Graveyard of Registry-Checked Headstones

Necropolis is an open-source tool that converts a pasted package.json into a graveyard, with each dependency shown as an SVG headstone. Each stone shows the package name, requested version, the latest publish date from the npm registry, and years since that publish, and is colour-coded by status such as alive, restless, haunted, dead, or unknown. A summary band tallies these fates and computes a Haunting Score from 0 to 100. Clicking a stone prompts a local Gemma model running through Ollama to write a short epitaph and a maintenance warning, and the yard can be exported as a Markdown report. The project is hosted on GitHub, with no hosted demo, so the model runs entirely on the user's own machine.
