SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill solves the complexity of navigating large-scale monorepos by providing a structured, read-only interface to query project configurations, dependencies, and build targets without manual file exploration.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Workspace Exploration: Instantly list projects, filter by tags or types, and visualize dependency graphs.
  • Configuration Auditing: Retrieve full, resolved project configurations including inferred targets from plugins.
  • Troubleshooting: Quickly diagnose build failures or missing targets by querying the workspace state programmatically.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to list all projects in the workspace and show the build targets for a specific project.

FAQPage Schema
How do I visualize the dependency graph in an Nx monorepo?

To visualize the dependency graph in an Nx monorepo, you can use this skill to explore project configurations and map dependencies programmatically. It processes CLI-based JSON output to map workspace architectures without manual file exploration.

How do I list all projects in an Nx workspace and filter by tags?

Listing all projects in an Nx workspace and filtering by tags is done through structured workspace exploration. The skill queries project configurations programmatically to instantly retrieve and filter projects based on their metadata.

What is the best way to audit build target configurations in an Nx monorepo?

The best way to audit build target configurations in an Nx monorepo is by querying the resolved project configurations. This skill retrieves full target definitions, including targets inferred from plugins, to help audit task setups.

Why does an Nx build fail because of a missing target configuration?

An Nx build may fail due to a missing target configuration if the workspace state is misconfigured. You can diagnose this by querying the workspace state programmatically to check for missing or incorrectly resolved build targets.

Can I retrieve inferred target configurations from Nx plugins programmatically?

Yes, you can retrieve inferred target configurations from Nx plugins programmatically. The skill facilitates configuration auditing by fetching the full, resolved project configurations directly from the workspace metadata.

Does this Nx workspace analysis tool modify my project files?

No, this Nx workspace analysis tool does not modify your project files. It provides strictly read-only exploration and analysis of your monorepo, ensuring your project configurations and dependency graphs remain untouched during inspection.
