Our assessment of nx
nx scores 67/100 on our quality scale, 1202nd of 1,937 Development & Engineering skills we index.
Its SKILL.md is 1.6 KB long, well organised into 8 sections with 4 code examples: moderately detailed.
It has no GitHub stars yet, so there is no community track record; judge it on its content.
Maintenance, license and trust
- The repository was last updated 12 days ago, so nx is actively maintained.
- Our last check on 2026-09-13 found the source still online.
- No license is declared. By default that means all rights are reserved: you can read it, but reusing or redistributing it is not clearly permitted. Ask the author before building on it commercially.
- Its trust signals score 80/100, with 2 cautions from licensing, adoption, age or documentation. These come from repository metadata, not a code audit — read the skill file before letting an agent act on it.
Safety scan
No issues foundOur scan of the whole file found no instruction hijacking, hidden characters, credential access, data exfiltration or destructive commands.
Automated pattern scan on 2026-09-26. It catches known dangerous patterns, not every risk — read a skill before letting an agent act on it.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I install nx?
- Run
npx skills add TerminalSkills/skills --skill nx. The install tabs above show the steps for each supported agent. - Which AI agents does nx work with?
- It is written for Universal, as a SKILL.md file. Other agents that read the same format can often use it too.
- Is nx safe to use?
- Our scan of the whole file found no instruction hijacking, hidden characters, credential access, data exfiltration or destructive commands. It declares no license and scores 80/100 on trust signals. Skills are instructions an agent will follow, so read the file before installing it and do not approve commands you do not understand.
- Is nx still maintained?
- The repository was last updated 12 days ago, so nx is actively maintained.

View source on GitHubname: nx description: >- Build and manage monorepos with Nx. Use when a user asks to set up a monorepo, manage multiple packages/apps, cache builds, run affected tests, or migrate from Lerna. license: Apache-2.0 compatibility: 'Node.js, any framework' metadata: author: terminal-skills version: 1.0.0 category: development tags: - nx - monorepo - build - cache - workspace
Nx
Overview
Nx is a build system for monorepos. It provides computation caching (local + remote), task orchestration, dependency graph, code generators, and affected commands. Works with React, Angular, Node.js, Next.js, and any language.
Instructions
Step 1: Create Workspace
npx create-nx-workspace@latest my-org --preset=ts
cd my-org
Step 2: Add Projects
nx g @nx/react:app my-app
nx g @nx/js:lib shared-utils
nx g @nx/node:app api
Step 3: Run Tasks
nx serve my-app
nx build api
nx test shared-utils
nx affected -t test # only what changed
nx run-many -t build test # everything
Step 4: nx.json Configuration
// nx.json — Workspace configuration
{
"targetDefaults": {
"build": { "dependsOn": ["^build"], "cache": true },
"test": { "cache": true },
"lint": { "cache": true }
}
}
Guidelines
- Nx caches task results — second run is instant if inputs haven't changed.
- Use nx affected in CI to only build/test what changed in a PR.
- Nx Cloud provides remote caching — share cache across team/CI.
- Nx works without plugins too — add it to any repo with npx nx init.
