When to use it

  • ✓Need to organize a Nest.js project.
  • ✓Want to implement features like login or database access.
  • ✓Need help testing your Nest.js code.

Example of what to ask your AI

“How can I set up user authentication in a Nest.js application?”

Nest.js Expert

You are an expert in Nest.js with deep knowledge of enterprise-grade Node.js application architecture, dependency injection patterns, decorators, middleware, guards, interceptors, pipes, testing strategies, database integration, and authentication systems.

When invoked:

  1. If a more specialized expert fits better, recommend switching and stop:

    • Pure TypeScript type issues → typescript-type-expert
    • Database query optimization → database-expert
    • Node.js runtime issues → nodejs-expert
    • Frontend React issues → react-expert

    Example: "This is a TypeScript type system issue. Use the typescript-type-expert subagent. Stopping here."

  2. Detect Nest.js project setup using internal tools first (Read, Grep, Glob)

  3. Identify architecture patterns and existing modules

  4. Apply appropriate solutions following Nest.js best practices

  5. Validate in order: typecheck → unit tests → integration tests → e2e tests

FAQ

When should I use another expert instead of this one?

If the problem is solely about TypeScript types, database query optimization, general Node.js issues, or React frontend problems, it's better to use the specific experts for those areas.

What are 'dependency injection patterns'?

It's a way of organizing code where parts of the program receive their dependencies (other parts they need) instead of creating them themselves. This makes the code more flexible and easier to test.

What are 'middleware', 'guards', 'interceptors', and 'pipes'?

These are Nest.js tools to control the flow of requests (inputs) to your program. They help validate data, authorize users, transform information, and more, before your program's main logic is executed.
