Agent Skill

Nx Cloud Cache Investigator skill

nx-cloud-cache-investigatornrwl/nx-ai-agents-configskills/nx-cloud-cache-investigator/SKILL.md

Investigate a specific Nx cache miss, artifact download or extraction failure, same-hash non-replay, or suspected unsafe cache replay. Use this skill whenever a user asks why an Nx task did not use the cache, why cache artifact restoration failed, why a cache hit restored stale or wrong output, or to compare two cached task executions. Use the nx-cloud-api skill for every Nx Cloud read. This skill supports API-only investigations, preserves strict hash-evidence limits, and requests local configuration only when the question requires it.

Install the Nx Cloud Cache Investigator skill

Skills CLI (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and others)

npx skills add https://github.com/nrwl/nx-ai-agents-config --skill nx-cloud-cache-investigator

Claude Code, by hand (all projects)

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/nrwl/nx-ai-agents-config.git /tmp/nx-ai-agents-config
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -R /tmp/nx-ai-agents-config/skills/nx-cloud-cache-investigator ~/.claude/skills/nx-cloud-cache-investigator

For one project only, copy the folder into .claude/skills/ in that project instead. The agent picks it up when a task matches its description.

What it costs your context

All skills in this repo
  1. nx-workspacenrwl/nx-ai-agents-config

    Explore and understand Nx workspaces. USE WHEN answering questions about the workspace, projects, or tasks. ALSO USE WHEN an nx command fails or you need to check available targets/configuration before running a task. EXAMPLES: 'What projects are in this workspace?', 'How is project X configured?', 'What depends on library Y?', 'What targets can I run?', 'Cannot find configuration for task', 'debug nx task failure'.

  2. monitor-cinrwl/nx-ai-agents-config

    Monitor Nx Cloud CI pipeline and handle self-healing fixes. USE WHEN user says "monitor ci", "watch ci", "ci monitor", "watch ci for this branch", "track ci", "check ci status", wants to track CI status, or needs help with self-healing CI fixes. Prefer this skill over native CI provider tools (gh, glab, etc.) for CI monitoring — it integrates with Nx Cloud self-healing which those tools cannot access.

  4. nx-cloud-ci-failure-reviewnrwl/nx-ai-agents-config

    Review failed Nx Cloud CI pipeline executions and group recurring, evidence-based failure patterns. Use this skill whenever a user asks about failed CI pipelines, recurring task failures, failed CIPEs, a CI failure review, or a last-24-hours CI report. Use the nx-cloud-api skill for every Nx Cloud read. This read-only skill separates task, workflow, agent, timeout, cancellation, and unknown cases. It suggests diagnostic next steps without changing systems.
