The current directory isn't part of an Nx workspace

Current Behavior

Whenever I attempt to use the Nx Console to inject an Angular app into the repo, every dry-run returns with an error that reads:

The current directory isn't part of an Nx workspace.

This isn’t the case at all, as I checked over ten times to make sure I was in the right directory. I even went as far as to see if there was something up with my integrated terminal – found nothing of the sort.

Expected Behavior

I expect it to generate an Angular app within the NRWL repo as it should. Nothing complicated.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Have VS Code with the Nx Console extension installed and running on it.
2. While in a terminal of your choosing, use the command npx create-nx-workspace <project_name> to create the workspace. (I use Yarn, but this happens to me using NPM as the package manager as well.)
3. Open the repo using VSCode.
4. While in the terminal – doesn’t matter if it’s VSCode’s integrated terminal or an external instance – and while in the project’s root directory, enter the following command, punctuated with Enter:

npm i --save-dev @nrwl/angular

OR

yarn add -D @nrwl/angular

(I always did the latter, just FYI.)

Failure Logs

While filling out the form in the console, it executes dry-runs, which always prints out these errors (and it prints out the same one if I attempt to actually execute the widget, anyway).

(I censored out two directory names, but they have no bearing on the bug.)

>  NX  The current directory isn't part of an Nx workspace.

  To create a workspace run:
  npx create-nx-workspace@latest <workspace name>


>  NX   NOTE  For more information please visit https://nx.dev/

The terminal process "/usr/bin/bash '-l', '-c', '/home/<profile_name>/projects/challenges/<project_name>/node_modules/.bin/nx generate @nrwl/angular:application --name=test --no-interactive --dry-run', 'nx generate @nrwl/angular:application --name=test --no-interactive --dry-run'" failed to launch (exit code: 1).

My Discovery

The problem seems to be a result of the dir argument passed into findWorkspaceRoot() in the @nrwl/cli dependency, which is process.cwd(). It’s passing the root directory of my filesystem ( / ) instead of the root directory of my project.

Environment

Not a part of the printed report, but I’m working from a WSL2 environment, and I install Node via NVM.
