Description
Nx workspace is a read-only agent skill for exploring Nx monorepos. It answers questions about a workspace's structure, its projects, the targets each project exposes and the dependencies between them. It is useful when an agent needs to understand a repository or when an Nx command fails and the agent has to find out why. The skill lists projects with the nx show projects command, and it explains the project filter syntax, which works across commands such as run-many and release. Filters can use explicit names, glob patterns such as apps/star, tags written as tag:name, directories, and negation to exclude a project. The skill reminds the agent that it may need to run commands through npx, pnpm or yarn if nx is not installed globally, and that the lockfile shows which package manager the workspace uses. It is intended for developers who work in Nx monorepos and want an assistant that reads the workspace before changing it. It is published by Nrwl on skills.sh under the nx-ai-agents-config repository, with about 67.6K installs. The skills.sh listing shows Gen Agent Trust Hub, Socket and Snyk all passing.…
