SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Monorepos are hard to navigate and evolve; this skill provides visibility into dependencies, impact analysis, and migration guidance across multi-package repos.

Core Features & Use Cases

Cross-package impact analysis to identify affected apps when a shared package changes
Selective commands to run builds/tests only for affected packages
Dependency graph visualization to understand package relationships
Build optimization through remote caching and incremental builds
Migration guidance from multi-repo setups to a unified monorepo with preserved history

Quick Start

Run the workspace analyzer against your monorepo root to produce an initial dependency map and impact report.

FAQPage Schema

How do I identify affected packages when a shared package changes in a monorepo?▼

Monorepo impact analysis identifies affected packages by resolving internal dependencies and mapping relationships across your workspace. Running a workspace analyzer against your root reads configuration files to output a structured graph showing exactly which packages are impacted by a change.

How do I visualize a dependency graph for pnpm workspaces or Nx?▼

Dependency graph visualization for pnpm workspaces, Nx, or Turborepo works by reading workspace patterns from pnpm-workspace.yaml or package.json, resolving internal package links, and outputting a structured graph suitable for tooling and dashboards.

Does monorepo impact analysis work with Lerna and Turborepo?▼

Monorepo impact analysis works with Lerna, Turborepo, Nx, and pnpm workspaces. The analyzer reads standard workspace configuration files to resolve internal dependencies and execute selective commands across all supported multi-package setups.

What is the best way to migrate multiple repositories into a single monorepo?▼

Migrating multiple repositories into a unified monorepo requires guidance to preserve history while consolidating packages. Migration features analyze your multi-repo setup and provide structured steps to transition into a single workspace with intact commit history.

How do I optimize builds for affected packages in a monorepo?▼

Build optimization for affected monorepo packages uses selective execution to run builds and tests only for impacted code. This approach leverages the resolved dependency graph and supports remote caching and incremental builds to reduce overall execution time.

Why do I need to run selective commands for monorepo builds?▼

Selective commands for monorepo builds are needed to avoid running unnecessary tests across unaffected packages. By targeting only the packages linked through the dependency graph, you save computation time and focus validation on the actual impact area.
