json-difference AGENTS.md

A shorter guide for working in an Nx workspace, where multiple applications and libraries are managed together from one repository.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps run Nx builds, tests, and other tasks, and explains when to use Nx documentation or the project-generation workflow.
Why use it?
It prevents guessed command options and encourages using the workspace's project-aware commands and documentation.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

json-difference AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

General Guidelines for working with Nx

  • For navigating/exploring the workspace, invoke the nx-workspace skill first - it has patterns for querying projects, targets, and dependencies
  • When running tasks (for example build, lint, test, e2e, etc.), always prefer running the task through nx (i.e. nx run, nx run-many, nx affected) instead of using the underlying tooling directly
  • Prefix nx commands with the workspace's package manager (e.g., pnpm nx build, npm exec nx test) - avoids using globally installed CLI
  • You have access to the Nx MCP server and its tools, use them to help the user
  • For Nx plugin best practices, check node_modules/@nx/<plugin>/PLUGIN.md. Not all plugins have this file - proceed without it if unavailable.
  • NEVER guess CLI flags - always check nx_docs or --help first when unsure

Scaffolding & Generators

  • For scaffolding tasks (creating apps, libs, project structure, setup), ALWAYS invoke the nx-generate skill FIRST before exploring or calling MCP tools

When to use nx_docs

  • USE for: advanced config options, unfamiliar flags, migration guides, plugin configuration, edge cases
  • DON'T USE for: basic generator syntax (nx g @nx/react:app), standard commands, things you already know
  • The nx-generate skill handles generator discovery internally - don't call nx_docs just to look up generator syntax
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
