What it does
Monorepo Navigator is an agent skill from borghei/Claude-Skills. Manage and optimize monorepos with Turborepo, Nx, pnpm workspaces, and Changesets. Use when working in monorepos, running impact analysis, optimizing build times with remote caching, migrating from multi-repo, or coordinating publishing.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/operations-and-best-practices.md`, `references/tooling-and-configuration.md` and `scripts/dependency_graph.py`).
It sits in Development, covering Monorepo tooling. It works with Turborepo. The repository describes itself as: 385 AI skills, 77 expert agents, and 900 stdlib Python tools for every team: engineering, PM, marketing, C-level, compliance, business ops, research, and a LinkedIn toolkit… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Working in monorepos
- Running impact analysis
- Optimizing build times with remote caching
- Migrating from multi-repo
Example prompts
- “/monorepo-navigator”
Requirements
- Python 3
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4a698e8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pythonchangeset
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Monorepo Navigator loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 64 tokens; SKILL.md has 609 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Monorepo Navigator
Navigate, manage, and optimize monorepos at any scale. Covers Turborepo, Nx, pnpm workspaces, and Lerna/Changesets for cross-package impact analysis, selective builds on affected packages only, dependency graph visualization, remote caching configuration, migration from multi-repo to monorepo with preserved git history, and coordinated package publishing with automated changelogs.
Keywords: monorepo, Turborepo, Nx, pnpm workspaces, Changesets, dependency graph, remote cache, affected packages, selective builds, cross-package impact, npm publishing, workspace protocol
Core Capabilities
- Impact analysis — determine which apps break when a shared package changes, trace dependency chains, visualize Mermaid graphs, and calculate blast radius.
- Selective execution — run tests/builds only for affected packages, filter by changed files since a git ref, and skip unchanged packages in CI.
- Build optimization — remote caching (Turborepo/Vercel, Nx Cloud), incremental builds with input/output config, dependency-aware parallel scheduling, and artifact sharing.
- Publishing — Changesets for coordinated versioning, automated per-package changelogs, pre-release channels, and
workspace:*replacement during publish.
When to Use
- Multiple packages/apps share code (UI components, utils, types, API clients)
- Build times are slow because everything rebuilds on every change
- Migrating from multiple repos to a single monorepo
- Publishing npm packages with coordinated versioning
- Teams work across packages and need unified tooling
Clarify First
Before analyzing or configuring, confirm these inputs. If any is unknown or vague, ASK — do not assume:
- Tooling — Turborepo, Nx, pnpm workspaces, or Changesets (drives the config and commands generated)
- Task — impact/dependency analysis, build optimization, or publishing setup (selects
dependency_graph.pyvsimpact_detector.pyvspackage_analyzer.py) - Repo root & git ref — the monorepo path and the baseline ref for "affected" detection (sets
--refand what counts as changed)
Stop rule: ask only the 2-3 that most change the output. If the user says "just draft it," proceed and list your assumptions at the top of the artifact.
Tools
| Tool | Purpose | Command |
|---|---|---|
dependency_graph.py | Generate a Mermaid dependency graph of internal packages | python scripts/dependency_graph.py . --focus @repo/ui --direction dependents |
impact_detector.py | Detect which packages are affected by file changes | python scripts/impact_detector.py . --ref origin/main --affected-only |
package_analyzer.py | Analyze package structure, dependencies, and health | python scripts/package_analyzer.py . --only-shared |

References
Load the reference that matches the task — keep this file lean and pull detail on demand:
- references/tooling-and-configuration.md — tool selection decision matrix, recommended repo structure, full turbo.json and pnpm-workspace config, key Turborepo/pnpm commands, impact-analysis commands, remote-caching setup, affected-only CI workflow, Changesets publishing, and multi-repo→monorepo migration steps. Read when configuring or operating a monorepo.
- references/operations-and-best-practices.md — common pitfalls, best practices, troubleshooting table, and success criteria. Read when something misbehaves or when validating a setup.
Scope & Limitations
This skill covers:
- Turborepo, Nx, and pnpm workspace configuration and optimization
- Cross-package dependency analysis and impact visualization
- Remote caching setup (Vercel, Nx Cloud, self-hosted)
- Changesets-based coordinated versioning and npm publishing
This skill does NOT cover:
- Application-level build configuration (webpack, Vite, esbuild internals) — see
performance-profiler - CI/CD pipeline design beyond monorepo-specific filters — see
ci-cd-pipeline-builder - Git branching strategies and release flow — see
release-manager - Dependency vulnerability scanning and license auditing — see
dependency-auditor
Integration Points
| Skill | Integration | Data Flow |
|---|---|---|
ci-cd-pipeline-builder | Monorepo-aware CI workflows use --filter flags and remote caching tokens | Monorepo Navigator defines filter patterns and cache config that CI pipelines consume |
release-manager | Changesets versioning feeds into release orchestration and tag management | Release Manager triggers changeset version and changeset publish as part of release flow |
dependency-auditor | Workspace dependency graph informs vulnerability and license scanning scope | Monorepo Navigator exports the package dependency tree that Dependency Auditor analyzes |
performance-profiler | Build profiling data identifies slow packages for optimization | Performance Profiler measures per-package build times surfaced by Turborepo --summarize |
changelog-generator | Changesets produce per-package changelogs consumed by release notes | Changeset summaries flow into Changelog Generator for formatted release documentation |
tech-debt-tracker | Cross-package coupling and circular dependencies surface as tracked tech debt items | Monorepo Navigator's impact analysis identifies coupling hotspots that Tech Debt Tracker records |
