RubyGems plugin for taming a large ball of already installed stones?

Question

Maybe someone knows if this kind of RubyGems plugin exists before I try to spend a lot of time writing it myself.

I do not use RVM * or bundler (edit: see the section in the comments), so I have a big ball of system pearls. I want to figure out which ones are the gems that I really want to use, which ones are the dependencies that should be there for the gems that I really want to use, and which ones are just rubbish that can be cleaned.

If someone is familiar with Gentoo, I think of something like Gentoo package management, but for RubyGems, instead, is a way to mark a small list of gems that I really want to save, and then run a command that can go through all my gems stones and cleanse those that are not addictions of these gems. In other words, "@world" is set for RubyGems.

* RVM is not an option for me because I have to use Microsoft Windows.

If you install graphviz, then you can run bundle viz , this will display the dependencies with note points, and you can use this to track the dependencies down to the jewels you really need to install (but only the ones you have installed through picker).

 bundle viz --format=dot
