Nx Console is an editor interface for Nx and Lerna monorepos, which are code repositories containing multiple related projects managed together. It gives developers visual workflows for viewing workspace structure, running tasks, navigating task graphs, and supplying workspace context to AI tools. The catalogue entries extend its workflows through skills, agents, instructions, MCP integrations, settings, and commands.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00040 | $0.00601 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00020 | $0.00300 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00120 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00060 |
Grade A, and why
nx-run-tasks 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 9d 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to nx-run-tasks — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 59 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
You can run tasks with Nx in the following way.
Keep in mind that you might have to prefix things with npx/pnpx/yarn if the user doesn't have nx installed globally. Look at the package.json or lockfile to determine which package manager is in use.
For more details on any command, run it with --help (e.g. nx run-many --help, nx affected --help).
Understand which tasks can be run
You can check those via nx show project <projectname> --json, for example nx show project myapp --json. It contains a targets section which has information about targets that can be run. You can also just look at the package.json scripts or project.json targets, but you might miss out on inferred tasks by Nx plugins.
Run a single task
nx run <project>:<task>
where project is the project name defined in package.json or project.json (if present).
Run multiple tasks
nx run-many -t build test lint typecheck
You can pass a -p flag to filter to specific projects, otherwise it runs on all projects. You can also use --exclude to exclude projects, and --parallel to control the number of parallel processes (default is 3).
Examples:
nx run-many -t test -p proj1 proj2— test specific projectsnx run-many -t test --projects=*-app --exclude=excluded-app— test projects matching a patternnx run-many -t test --projects=tag:api-*— test projects by tag
Run tasks for affected projects
Use nx affected to only run tasks on projects that have been changed and projects that depend on changed projects. This is especially useful in CI and for large workspaces.
nx affected -t build test lint
By default it compares against the base branch. You can customize this:
nx affected -t test --base=main --head=HEAD— compare against a specific base and headnx affected -t test --files=libs/mylib/src/index.ts— specify changed files directly
Useful flags
These flags work with run, run-many, and affected:
--skipNxCache— rerun tasks even when results are cached--verbose— print additional information such as stack traces--nxBail— stop execution after the first failed task--configuration=<name>— use a specific configuration (e.g.production)
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.

nx-run-tasks is a skill published in the GitHub repository nrwl/nx-console (1,413 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 601 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to nx-run-tasks, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
