@aws/nx-plugin has been designed for gradual adoption from the start, and you can use as little or as much of it as you need. Follow the [Quick Start](https://awslabs.github.io/nx-plugin-for-aws/en/get_started/quick-start) guide to create a workspace and add projects.

[Build a Dungeon Adventure Game](https://awslabs.github.io/nx-plugin-for-aws/en/get_started/tutorials/dungeon-game/overview/) to get an in-depth guided tutorial on how to use the @aws/nx-plugin.

[Add @aws/nx-plugin to your existing project](https://awslabs.github.io/nx-plugin-for-aws/en/get_started/tutorials/existing-project/)

This package additionally provides an MCP server to help AI assistants use the Nx Plugin for AWS.

1Ensure you have node and npm installed ([see here](https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm))

2Add the server to your MCP client configuration

Example configuration for Amazon Q CLI MCP (~/.aws/amazonq/mcp.json):

json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aws-nx-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "-p", "@aws/nx-plugin", "aws-nx-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

If you have issues such as ENOENT npx, replace the command with /full/path/to/npx (use which npx to find this). For more details, [take a look at the guide here](https://awslabs.github.io/nx-plugin-for-aws/en/get_started/building-with-ai/)
