Package Usage
Track which stacks across a Pulumi organization use a specific package and at what versions. Use for cross-stack audits, identifying outdated or unmaintained package versions across many stacks, finding affected stacks before publishing breaking changes to a component package, or planning coordinated upgrade rollouts. Do NOT use for upgrading a cloud provider package (pulumi-aws, pulumi-azure-native, pulumi-gcp, pulumi-kubernetes, etc.) in a single project — use skill `provider-upgrade` instead. Do NOT use for general infrastructure creation, resource provisioning, or how-to questions about a package.
