At a glance

Configure, explore, and optimize Nx monorepo workspaces. An agent skill from tech-leads-club/agent-skills.

  • Exploring workspace structure
  • SKILL.md covers Quick Start, Core Commands, Workspace Architecture and Detailed Resources, plus 2 more sections
  • Calls nx and jq
  • Configuring project boundaries

What it does

Nx Workspace is an agent skill from tech-leads-club/agent-skills. Configure, explore, and optimize Nx monorepo workspaces. Use when setting up Nx, exploring workspace structure, configuring project boundaries, analyzing affected projects, optimizing build caching, or implementing CI/CD with affected commands. Keywords — nx, monorepo, workspace, projects, targets, affected. Do NOT use for running tasks (use nx-run-tasks) or code generation with generators (use nx-generate).

Its SKILL.md is about 990 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files (for example `reference/best-practices.md`, `reference/ci-cd.md` and `reference/commands.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Monorepo tooling and CI/CD. It works with Nx. The repository describes itself as: The secure, validated skill registry for professional AI coding agents. Extend Antigravity, Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot and more with absolute confidence.

When your agent uses it

  • Exploring workspace structure
  • Configuring project boundaries
  • Analyzing affected projects
  • Optimizing build caching

Example prompts

  • “/nx-workspace”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6df68d5. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • nx
    • jq

    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 Workspace loads about 992 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 106 tokens; SKILL.md has 225 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~106
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~992

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 225 words (~992 tokens).

“Exploring workspace: nx show projects and nx show project --json Running tasks: nx (e.g., nx build my-app) Affected analysis: nx show projects --affected or nx affected -t”
