@nx/workspace@23.2.0
The Workspace plugin contains executors and generators that are useful for any Nx workspace. It should be present in every Nx workspace and other plugins build on it.
AI Security Review
scanned 1mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe inspected package has no registry-install lifecycle hook or confirmed malicious behavior. Its explicit agent-setup path remains a bounded extension-lifecycle risk because the delegated implementation is not available in this snapshot.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
A user runs the new-workspace generator with aiAgents configured.
Impact
May modify AI-agent configuration in the newly selected workspace; the exact files are not present in this package.
Mechanism
Delegates selected AI-agent setup to @nx/devkit after workspace generation.
AI rationale
The inspected package has no registry-install lifecycle hook or confirmed malicious behavior. Its explicit agent-setup path remains a bounded extension-lifecycle risk because the delegated implementation is not available in this snapshot.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 78.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The explicit new-workspace flow invokes an internal AI-agent setup generator when aiAgents is supplied.
- That setup callback runs after the generator's requested package-install step.
Evidence against
- package.json has no preinstall, install, or postinstall script.
- The dynamic requires only load optional Nx plugins and return when they are absent.
- No credential harvesting, exfiltration code, opaque payload loading, or destructive filesystem logic was found in the inspected source.
