ERROR: No cached ProjectGraph is available.

Current Behavior

Random nx crash in our Github CI during a build

Expected Behavior

nx can build our projects without failing

Steps to Reproduce

I guess new messages at the end of #10730 are kinda similar. Looks related to the latest release.

Failure Logs

   If you are leveraging \`readCachedProjectGraph()\` directly then you will need to refactor your usage to first ensure that
   the ProjectGraph is created by calling \`await createProjectGraphAsync()\` somewhere before attempting to read the data.
   If you encounter this error as part of running standard \`nx\` commands then please open an issue on https://github.com/nrwl/nx
   Pass --verbose to see the stacktrace.

@AgentEnder on our CI while Jest Tests run, we got this error. I think we cannot close this ticket because sometimes it shows up. Do you need more information from me? We are struggling with it for several months

Here’s an error
