# ST-USG-010 - Unused Dependencies

> **Rule ID**: `ST-USG-010`

**Rule ID**: `ST-USG-010`

**Scope**: Project

## Description

The rule finds and lists unused activities packages in the project. Please note that sub-dependencies are taken into account, if an activity from a sub-dependency is used in the project, then the rule considers the top-level dependency in use as well. This is particularly visible in the case of libraries installed as dependencies, as they may include a set of sub-dependencies.

## Recommendation

Remove unused packages in order to improve process execution time.
:::note
The rule only applies to activity packages used in a workflow. Packages used exclusively within an **Invoke Code** activity may be incorrectly detected as unused dependencies.
