extract-nx-lib

What problem does it solve?

Orchestration playbook for extracting a leaf library from the bitwarden-clients Nx monorepo. Encodes all patterns, team composition, decision frameworks, and gotchas for taking a candidate file from libs/common (or another broad library) into its own @bitwarden/<name> Nx leaf library with a re-export shim and at least one updated consumer. Use when asked to extract a class, utility, or type from bitwarden-clients into a standalone Nx leaf lib using Task Group A.

Core Features & Use Cases

This skill provides orchestration guidance for extracting a leaf library from the bitwarden-clients Nx monorepo. A leaf library is a small, self-contained domain with zero or near-zero dependencies on other @bitwarden/* packages — it sits at the bottom of the dependency graph.

The implementation covers candidate intake, research/design decisions, scaffolding of a new Nx leaf library, barrel export checks, ADR documentation, and a coordinated PR workflow to minimize risk during isolation.

Quick Start

Run the extraction workflow to scaffold a new leaf library and move the target file into libs.
