## Current Behavior When running `nx run <project>` without specifying a target, the command always fails with an error message "Both project and target have to be specified", even if the project has a "run" target defined. ## Expected Behavior When running `nx run <project>` without specifying a target, the command should check if the project has a "run" target defined. If it does, use it as the default target. This improves developer experience by allowing simpler commands like `nx run myapp` instead of `nx run myapp:run`. ## Related Issue(s) This change improves the developer experience for projects that have a "run" target defined, making the CLI more intuitive. ## Changes Made - Modified `packages/nx/src/command-line/run/run-one.ts` to check for a "run" target when no target is specified - Added comprehensive test coverage in `e2e/nx/src/run.test.ts` to verify: - Projects with a "run" target default to it when no target is specified - Projects without a "run" target still show the original error message - Maintains full backward compatibility ## Testing - All existing tests pass - Added new e2e tests to verify the behavior - Ran full validation suite (`nx prepush`) successfully
