## What it does

This MCP server exposes an Nx monorepo to AI tools. It inspects workspace architecture, project relationships, and task targets. The agent reads project boundaries directly.

Under the hood, the server runs via the `nx-mcp` package over stdio. It supplies LLMs with generator schemas and official Nx documentation. Node.js with `npx` is strictly required. Without `npx` in your system path, the server fails immediately.

## Requirements
- Needs: Node.js (commands run via npx)

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

**Platform CLI**
```bash
claude mcp add nx-console -- npx -y nx-mcp
```

### Codex

**Platform CLI**
```bash
codex mcp add nx-console -- npx -y nx-mcp
```

### Cursor

**Config file**
File `.cursor/mcp.json`:
```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "nx-console": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": [
                "-y",
                "nx-mcp"
            ]
        }
    }
}
```

### GitHub Copilot

**Config file**
File `.vscode/mcp.json`:
```json
{
    "servers": {
        "nx-console": {
            "type": "stdio",
            "command": "npx",
            "args": [
                "-y",
                "nx-mcp"
            ]
        }
    }
}
```

### Gemini CLI

**Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini mcp add nx-console npx -y nx-mcp
```

## When to use it
- feed monorepo architecture and project graphs into an AI assistant
- supply generator schemas for accurate workspace scaffolding
- access official Nx documentation directly inside coding prompts

## Example prompts
- Show the project dependencies for the web application in our Nx workspace.
- Which Nx generator should I run to scaffold a new utility library?
