# Helix 0.113.0: Dependency age checks on deploy

> New projects and deployments now verify dependency freshness, and Node.js 24.19.0 or newer is required.

- Released: 8 Sept 2026 (2026-09-08)
- Packages: @trayai/helix-cli@0.113.0, @trayai/helix-sdk@0.113.0

## Headline changes

### Added: New projects only install dependencies older than 7 days

When you create a new project, only dependencies published at least 7 days ago are installed. Combined with the new pre-upload check in `helix deploy`, this reduces the risk of pulling in compromised or unstable packages that were published moments ago. If a dependency is too new, the deploy will warn you before anything is uploaded.
