Monorepo Navigator

This handles the messy reality of working in large monorepos where finding the right code feels like archaeology. It maps out workspace dependencies, identifies which packages are affected by your changes, and helps you navigate between related services without grepping through dozens of directories. Most useful when you're new to a codebase or trying to understand blast radius before shipping. The dependency visualization alone saves you from that thing where you change one package and mysteriously break three others you didn't know existed.

Monorepo Navigator

Tier: POWERFUL
Category: Engineering
Domain: Monorepo Architecture / Build Systems

Overview

Navigate, manage, and optimize monorepos. Covers Turborepo, Nx, pnpm workspaces, and Lerna. Enables cross-package impact analysis, selective builds/tests on affected packages only, remote caching, dependency graph visualization, and structured migrations from multi-repo to monorepo. Includes Claude Code configuration for workspace-aware development.

Core Capabilities

Cross-package impact analysis — determine which apps break when a shared package changes
Selective commands — run tests/builds only for affected packages (not everything)
Dependency graph — visualize package relationships as Mermaid diagrams
Build optimization — remote caching, incremental builds, parallel execution
Migration — step-by-step multi-repo → monorepo with zero history loss
Publishing — changesets for versioning, pre-release channels, npm publish workflows
Claude Code config — workspace-aware CLAUDE.md with per-package instructions
