Run Nx Generator

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Tasks that involve Monorepo tooling
• Tasks that involve Project scaffolding
• Tasks that involve Prioritization frameworks

Example prompts

• “/run-nx-generator”

Requirements

• Node.js
• Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Glob, Grep, mcp__nx-mcp__nx_generators, mcp__nx-mcp__nx_generator_schema

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

1. 1List available generators
2. 2Get generator schema (to see available options)
3. 3Run the generator
4. 4Verify the changes

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 200edc8. 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
  • Glob
  • Grep
  • mcp__nx-mcp__nx_generators
  • mcp__nx-mcp__nx_generator_schema

  From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

• Runs code

  Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

  • nx
  • npx

  From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

• Network

  No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

  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

Run Nx Generator loads about 592 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 48 tokens; SKILL.md has 240 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~48

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~592

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

• NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md

  allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Glob, Grep, mcp__nx-mcp__nx_generators, mcp__nx-mcp__nx_generator_schema

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.
