Deps

Show dependencies for: $ARGUMENTS

Use the bazel-deps tool with direction: "deps" to perform this lookup. It handles file path resolution, Bazel queries (forward and reverse in parallel), and grouping automatically. Pass the argument as the target.

The target supports ecosystem qualifiers to disambiguate when a name matches both C++ and Rust targets:

• rust:base64 or crate:base64 — resolve as a Rust crate only
• cpp:base64 or cc:base64 — resolve as a C++ target only
• Unqualified names (e.g. base64) use the default resolution order (C++ first, then Rust)

Pass the full argument including any qualifier as the target (e.g. target: "rust:base64").

If the user asks for the full transitive graph, pass depth: 2 or depth: 3. Warn that deeper queries can be slow.

After receiving the tool output, add any useful observations:

• Are there circular dependency risks or unusually large dependency sets?
• Are there surprising external dependencies?
• For targets with many reverse dependents, note the impact of changes to this target.
