What problem does it solve?
This skill helps developers quickly discover the projects, targets, and dependency relationships inside an Nx monorepo so they can inspect configurations and troubleshoot failing Nx tasks without guesswork.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Project discovery: List all workspace projects and filter by pattern, tag, type, or target to find relevant apps and libs.
- Configuration inspection: Retrieve full resolved project and target configurations to see executors, commands, options, inputs, and outputs.
- Dependency and affected analysis: Use the project graph and affected commands to find dependents and determine which projects change with a patch.
- Use Case: When an Nx task fails with "Cannot find configuration for task", use this skill to list project targets, check nx.json targetDefaults, and locate the missing configuration.
Quick Start
Run nx show projects --json to list all projects, then run nx show project <project-name> --json to inspect its targets and configuration.
