Help Claude Code understand your Nx workspace, generate projects, run tasks, and handle CI failures.
The Nx plugin gives Claude Code guidance for working in an Nx monorepo: understanding project dependencies, choosing generators, linking packages, and running workspace tasks. It also supports Nx Cloud investigations and CI monitoring, so the assistant can work from project configuration and recorded execution data.
The skills tell the assistant when to select them from your request. You can also start CI monitoring by selecting the monitor-ci skill from Claude Code’s slash menu. Monitoring requires a workspace connected to Nx Cloud and can lead to code changes, commits, and pushes; give it instructions such as asking before each push if you want to review those actions.
Ask which projects depend on a library or which tasks a project supports. The workspace skill guides the assistant through project relationships and resolved configuration, including targets inferred by Nx plugins.
The generation skill guides the assistant to discover suitable generators, prefer a matching local generator, follow existing repository patterns, and check the result. When one workspace package needs another, the linking skill uses the repository’s package manager to declare the dependency.
Import code while preserving commit history and following the destination’s directory conventions. The import skill also covers follow-up work such as merging relevant root dependencies and configuration, which the import does not merge automatically.
Ask the assistant to run builds, tests, or lint checks for changed projects and their dependents. The task skill covers affected-project runs as well as individual tasks and selected groups of projects.
With the workspace connected to Nx Cloud, ask the assistant to monitor the branch and handle self-healing fixes. The workflow can verify changes locally and continue through further CI attempts. State your review preferences before starting because its actions can include applying fixes, committing, and pushing.
With authorized access to Nx Cloud workspace data, investigate a specific cache miss or restoration failure, or review recurring CI failure patterns. Cache diagnosis distinguishes recorded execution evidence from local configuration; the CI failure review is read-only and suggests next diagnostic actions.
The existing Nx plugin includes the CI helper and nx-mcp. The preview marketplace separates workspace support into nx and cloud support into nx-cloud, which adds the hosted nx-cloud MCP server. The Nx Cloud skills need authorized access to your workspace’s cloud data; CI monitoring also requires the workspace to be connected to Nx Cloud.

This helper belongs to the existing Nx plugin for Claude Code. Install that plugin through workspace setup or the nx-claude-plugins marketplace, enable it, and start a Claude Code session in your workspace.
With the workspace connected to Nx Cloud, ask Claude to monitor CI for your branch or select the monitor-ci skill from the slash menu. The skill delegates individual status requests and self-healing actions to this helper; the helper performs one MCP call and returns, while the main skill manages monitoring.
See the CI helper definition and monitoring instructions.
Install the existing Nx plugin through workspace setup or its marketplace, or choose the preview marketplace to install the separate Nx and Nx Cloud plugins.
This setup installs the existing Claude Code plugin and configures the Nx MCP server and agent rules for your workspace. It does not install the separate preview plugins.
Use an existing Nx workspace with nx.json and nx in package.json.
Run this command in a terminal at the workspace root, then select Claude Code when prompted.
npx nx configure-ai-agentsReview the changes to the workspace’s agent rules and MCP configuration.
In the same terminal, run the configuration check and inspect its output. If it reports a failure, address that error before continuing.
npx nx configure-ai-agents --check=allStart a new Claude Code session in the workspace. In the plugin manager’s Installed tab, confirm that nx is enabled. Type / and look for its skills under the nx name, then open the MCP connection controls to check nx-mcp.
The plugin is listed as enabled, its skills appear in the slash menu, and you can inspect its MCP connection.
This marketplace installs the existing nx plugin, including its workspace skills and CI helper. The preview marketplace is a separate alternative.
In your Claude Code session, add the Nx plugin marketplace.
/plugin marketplace add nrwl/nx-ai-agents-configIn the same Claude Code session, open the Nx plugin’s installation panel, choose the scope you want, and complete the installation.
/plugin install nx@nx-claude-pluginsRead the installation summary. If it says the plugin is active, continue; if a reload is needed, follow the panel’s reload instruction. See Claude Code’s plugin loading guidance.
Confirm that nx is enabled in the plugin manager’s Installed tab. Type / and look for its skills under the nx name, then open the MCP connection controls to check nx-mcp.
The plugin is listed as enabled, its skills appear in the slash menu, and you can inspect its MCP connection.
The preview marketplace contains two plugins: nx for workspace skills and the Nx MCP server, and nx-cloud for cloud skills and the hosted Nx Cloud MCP server. Install both for the workspace and cloud capabilities listed here.
If the existing plugin is enabled, disable the nx@nx-claude-plugins entry in .claude/settings.json before enabling the preview plugins. Both versions use the name nx.
In a terminal, add the preview marketplace.
claude plugin marketplace add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nrwl/nx-ai-agents-config/main/plugins/.claude-plugin/marketplace.jsonIn the same terminal, install the nx plugin, then the nx-cloud plugin.
claude plugin install nx@nx-pluginsclaude plugin install nx-cloud@nx-pluginsStart a new Claude Code session in your Nx workspace to load the plugins.
Confirm that nx and nx-cloud are enabled in the plugin manager’s Installed tab. Type / and look for skills under both plugin names. Open the MCP connection controls to inspect nx-mcp and nx-cloud.
Both plugins are listed as enabled, their skills appear in the slash menu, and their MCP connections can be inspected.
