# E-DEP-002

> Retired: doctor no longer reads the running wire, so it cannot compare its version against the CLI.

```text retired theme={null}
E-DEP-002 — retired, doctor no longer emits this code
```

`error_code: E-DEP-002` · `status: retired`

## What you're seeing

Nothing: `npx vendo doctor` cannot print this code anymore. You are reading
it from an older run's output, or a saved report.

## Why

This code caught a split-brain install: the running wire served one
`@vendoai/vendo` version and the CLI was on another. Doctor read the wire's
version from the live `/status` route. Doctor now only checks what is on
disk, so there is no second version to compare against.

## The fix

The split-brain install is still real, and you check it yourself now:

```bash theme={null}
npm ls @vendoai/vendo
npx vendo --version
```

If `npm ls` shows a version your CLI is not on, install the matching one, or
drop the direct `@vendoai/vendo` dependency from `package.json` and let the
`vendoai` umbrella provide it. Reinstall after either change.
