Nx is a tool for managing monorepos, which are repositories containing multiple related projects, across TypeScript and other languages. It helps development teams and AI agents run only affected tasks, cache build results, generate code, and coordinate continuous integration. The catalogue add-ons provide agent skills, commands, agents, instructions, and settings for working with Nx.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to medium
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00038 | $0.00555 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00278 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00111 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00056 |
Grade A, and why
run-nx-generator 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 79 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Run Nx Generator
This skill helps you execute Nx generators efficiently, with special focus on workspace-plugin generators from your internal tooling.
Generator Priority List
Use the mcp__nx-mcp__nx_generator_schema tool to get more information about how to use the generator
Choose which generators to run in this priority order:
🔥 Workspace-Plugin Generators (High Priority)
These are your custom internal tools in tools/workspace-plugin/
📦 Core Nx Generators (Standard)
Only use these if workspace-plugin generators don't fit:
nx generate @nx/devkit:...- DevKit utilitiesnx generate @nx/node:...- Node.js librariesnx generate @nx/react:...- React components and apps- Framework-specific generators
How to Run Generators
-
List available generators:
-
Get generator schema (to see available options): Use the
mcp__nx-mcp__nx_generator_schematool to get more information about how to use the generator -
Run the generator:
nx generate [generator-path] [options] -
Verify the changes:
- Review generated files
- Run tests:
nx affected -t test - Format code:
npx oxfmt [files]
Best Practices
- ✅ Always check workspace-plugin first - it has your custom solutions
- ✅ Use
--dry-runflag to preview changes before applying - ✅ Format generated code immediately with oxfmt
- ✅ Test affected projects after generation
- ✅ Commit generator changes separately from manual edits
Examples
Bumping Maven Version
When updating the Maven plugin version, use the workspace-plugin generator:
nx generate @nx/workspace-plugin:bump-maven-version \
--newVersion 0.0.10 \
--nxVersion 22.1.0-beta.7
This automates all the version bumping instead of manual file edits.
When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when you need to:
- Generate new code or projects
- Scaffold new features or libraries
- Automate repetitive setup tasks
- Update internal tools and configurations
- Create migrations or version updates
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.
- 9d ago First seen · 79 lines · 38 tokens per session scan A 04a2eb93a370
run-nx-generator is a skill published in the GitHub repository nrwl/nx (29,318 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 38 tokens to every session and 555 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.

Merge upstream React Starter Kit updates (the seed remote) into main, preserving this project's identity, scope, and behavior. Use when asked to sync, pull, or merge the seed / starter kit / upstream template.
add-gallery-example
Add an example to the Unovis gallery — a per-framework example directory under packages/shared/examples, registered in examples-list.tsx, with light/dark previews. Use when asked to add a gallery example, showcase a chart in the gallery, or create the gallery entry that accompanies a new component.
open-pr
Open a pull request for the Unovis repo with the project's conventions — correct branch off main, the standard commit grouping, and the checklist-style PR body used by the maintainers. Use when asked to open/create/submit a pull request, prepare a branch for review, or write a PR description in this repository.
