What it does

Nx Gradle Plugin Version Bump is an agent skill from nrwl/nx. Bump the dev.nx.gradle.project-graph plugin version. Use when updating the Gradle project graph plugin version across the codebase, creating the migration files, and updating migrations.json.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development. It works with Gradle. The repository describes itself as: The Monorepo Platform that amplifies both developers and AI agents. Nx optimizes your builds, scales your CI, and fixes failed PRs automatically. Ship in half the time. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Updating the Gradle project graph plugin version across the codebase
Creating the migration files
Updating migrations.json

Example prompts

“/nx-gradle-plugin-version-bump”

Requirements

Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

Update the version constant
Update build.gradle.kts
Create migration TypeScript file
Create migration documentation file
Add migration entry to migrations.json

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit db71d69. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
- Bash
- Read
- Write
- Edit
- Glob
- Grep
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- nx
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

Nx Gradle Plugin Version Bump loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 55 tokens; SKILL.md has 361 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~55
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~1.3k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
```
allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep
```

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Gradle Plugin Version Bump

Bumps the dev.nx.gradle.project-graph plugin to a new version. This is a recurring task that touches 5 files in an identical pattern every time.

Required Inputs

Collect these values from the master branch before starting:

NEW_VERSION - the version we want to bump to Example: OLD_VERSION: 0.1.15 => NEW_VERSION: 0.1.16 You can find this value by looking at the OLD_VERSION specified in packages/gradle/project-graph/build.gradle.kts in the version field.
The NEW_VERSION will be the OLD_VERSION + 1.
NX_MIGRATION_VERSION - the version of Nx that will trigger our version bump migration Example: OLD_VERSION: 22.7.0-beta.0 => NEW_VERSION: 22.7.0-beta.1 You can find this value by looking at the nx version in package.json under devDependencies. The NEW_VERSION will be the OLD_VERSION + 1.
MIGRATION_FOLDER - the folder name under packages/gradle/src/migrations/ that will contain our migration files Example: NEW_VERSION: 22.7.0-beta.1 => MIGRATION_FOLDER: 22-7-0 Take the version and replace all the dots with hyphens and remove the beta or rc suffix.

Steps

1. Update the version constant

File: packages/gradle/src/utils/versions.ts

Change gradleProjectGraphVersion to the new version:

export const gradleProjectGraphVersion = 'NEW_VERSION';

2. Update build.gradle.kts

File: packages/gradle/project-graph/build.gradle.kts

Update the version on line 13:

kotlin

version = "NEW_VERSION"

3. Create migration TypeScript file

File: packages/gradle/src/migrations/MIGRATION_FOLDER/change-plugin-version-NEW_VERSION.ts

Determine the previous version by reading the current gradleProjectGraphVersion from packages/gradle/src/utils/versions.ts before modifying it.

Template:

import { Tree, readNxJson } from '@nx/devkit';
import { hasGradlePlugin } from '../../utils/has-gradle-plugin';
import { addNxProjectGraphPlugin } from '../../generators/init/gradle-project-graph-plugin-utils';
import { updateNxPluginVersionInCatalogsAst } from '../../utils/version-catalog-ast-utils';

/* Change the plugin version to NEW_VERSION
 */
export default async function update(tree: Tree) {
  const nxJson = readNxJson(tree);
  if (!nxJson) {
    return;
  }
  if (!hasGradlePlugin(tree)) {
    return;
  }

  const gradlePluginVersionToUpdate = 'NEW_VERSION';

  // Update version in version catalogs using AST-based approach to preserve formatting
  await updateNxPluginVersionInCatalogsAst(tree, gradlePluginVersionToUpdate);

  // Then update in build.gradle(.kts) files
  await addNxProjectGraphPlugin(tree, gradlePluginVersionToUpdate);
}

4. Create migration documentation file

File: packages/gradle/src/migrations/MIGRATION_FOLDER/change-plugin-version-NEW_VERSION.md

Replace PREV_VERSION with the version that was current before this bump.

Template:

#### Change dev.nx.gradle.project-graph to version NEW_VERSION

Change dev.nx.gradle.project-graph to version NEW_VERSION in build file

#### Sample Code Changes

##### Before

\```text title="build.gradle"
plugins {
id "dev.nx.gradle.project-graph" version "PREV_VERSION"
}
\```

##### After

\```text title="build.gradle"
plugins {
id "dev.nx.gradle.project-graph" version "NEW_VERSION"
}
\```

Show full SKILL.md (144 more words)Show less

5. Add migration entry to migrations.json

File: packages/gradle/migrations.json

Add a new entry at the end of the generators object (before the closing }), following the existing pattern:

json

"change-plugin-version-NEW_VERSION": {
  "version": "NX_MIGRATION_VERSION",
  "description": "Change dev.nx.gradle.project-graph to version NEW_VERSION in build file",
  "implementation": "./dist/src/migrations/MIGRATION_FOLDER/change-plugin-version-NEW_VERSION",
  "documentation": "./dist/src/migrations/MIGRATION_FOLDER/change-plugin-version-NEW_VERSION.md"
}

The migration key uses the version with hyphens replacing dots (e.g., 0-1-16). The paths are dist-prefixed because the published package ships only dist/, and documentation is how the entry references the step-4 file. Older entries also carry cli: "nx" (deprecated in the migrations schema) and the factory alias for implementation; the template uses the primary key and omits cli. For the general entry shape see the author-migration skill.

Verification

Run:

bash

nx run-many -t test,build,lint -p gradle

Commit Convention

chore(gradle): bump gradle project graph plugin version to NEW_VERSION

Final Verification

Take a look at the most recent Gradle version bump PR and compare your changes to that. You should not be touching more or less files than the most recent version bump PR. If you do, ask for more information and stop all changes.
