# Nx Workspace Exploration

This skill provides read-only exploration of Nx workspaces. Use it to understand workspace structure, project configuration, available targets, and dependencies.

Keep in mind that you might have to prefix commands with `npx`/`pnpx`/`yarn` if nx isn't installed globally. Check the lockfile to determine the package manager in use.

## Listing Projects

Use `nx show projects` to list projects in the workspace.

```bash
# List all projects
nx show projects

# Filter by pattern (glob)
nx show projects --projects "apps/*"
nx show projects --projects "shared-*"

# Filter by project type
nx show projects --type app
nx show projects --type lib
nx show projects --type e2e

# Filter by target (projects that have a specific target)
nx show projects --withTarget build
nx show projects --withTarget e2e

# Find affected projects (changed since base branch)
nx show projects --affected
nx show projects --affected --base=main
nx show projects --affected --type app

# Combine filters
nx show projects --type lib --withTarget test
nx show projects --affected --exclude="*-e2e"

# Output as JSON
nx show projects --json
```

## Project Configuration

Use `nx show project <name> --json` to get the full resolved configuration for a project.

**Important**: Do NOT read `project.json` directly - it only contains partial configuration. The `nx show project` command returns the full resolved config including inferred targets from plugins.

You can read the full project schema at `node_modules/nx/schemas/project-schema.json` to understand nx project configuration options.

```bash
# Get full project configuration
nx show project my-app --json

# Extract specific parts from the JSON
nx show project my-app --json | jq '.targets'
nx show project my-app --json | jq '.targets.build'
nx show project my-app --json | jq '.targets | keys'


# Check project metadata
nx show project my-app --json | jq '{name, root, sourceRoot, projectType, tags}'
```
