Recommend Chromatic best practices for Nx and Turborepo monorepos, including one-project versus multi-project topology, workingDir, buildCommand or outputDir, storybookBaseDir, storybookConfigDir, onlyChanged, externals, untraced, shared lockfile behavior, and TurboSnap-safe CI patterns. Use when a monorepo needs an initial setup recommendation or an audit of an existing Chromatic configuration.
