Thanks for reporting!

@Jefiozie I'm not certainly sure, but it seems that the nest add was broken for repos that don't contain nest-cli.json file (which is valid). Missing fallback to a default value(?)

@kamilmysliwiec, probably it is best to revert my commit. I'm already working on the PR to resolve the problems(and others) reported in the past days. However I need some time to finish this. I'm really sorry this is happening.

[kamilmysliwiec]

No worries @Jefiozie, your contribution is great! Bugs are an integral part of new features :)

[Jefiozie]

Thanks for your understanding, I will make a draft PR in upcoming day(s) so that we can have a discussion and can monitor the progress there.

[Jefiozie]

@kamilmysliwiec just made the draft PR see here

This should be fixed now. Let me know if you face any further issues
