convex
Umbrella skill for all Convex development patterns. Routes to specific skills like convex-functions, convex-realtime, convex-agents, etc.
Best use case
convex is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt. It is especially useful for teams working in multi. Umbrella skill for all Convex development patterns. Routes to specific skills like convex-functions, convex-realtime, convex-agents, etc.

Users should expect a more consistent workflow output, faster repeated execution, and less time spent rewriting prompts from scratch.
Practical example
Example input
Use the "convex" skill to help with this workflow task. Context: Umbrella skill for all Convex development patterns. Routes to specific skills like convex-functions, convex-realtime, convex-agents, etc.
Example output
A structured workflow result with clearer steps, more consistent formatting, and an output that is easier to reuse in the next run.
When to use this skill
- Use this skill when you want a reusable workflow rather than writing the same prompt again and again.
When not to use this skill
- Do not use this when you only need a one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- Do not use it if you cannot install or maintain the related files, repository context, or supporting tools.

Related Skills
convex-setup-auth
Sets up Convex authentication with user management, identity mapping, and access control. Use this skill when adding login or signup to a Convex app, configuring Convex Auth, Clerk, WorkOS AuthKit, Auth0, or custom JWT providers, wiring auth.config.ts, protecting queries and mutations with ctx.auth.getUserIdentity(), creating a users table with identity mapping, or setting up role-based access control, even if the user just says "add auth" or "make it require login."
convex-quickstart
Initializes a new Convex project from scratch or adds Convex to an existing app. Use this skill when starting a new project with Convex, scaffolding with npm create convex@latest, adding Convex to an existing React, Next.js, Vue, Svelte, or other frontend, wiring up ConvexProvider, configuring environment variables for the deployment URL, or running npx convex dev for the first time, even if the user just says "set up Convex" or "add a backend."
convex-performance-audit
Audits and optimizes Convex application performance across hot-path reads, write contention, subscription cost, and function limits. Use this skill when a Convex feature is slow or expensive, npx convex insights shows high bytes or documents read, OCC conflict errors or mutation retries appear, subscriptions or UI updates are costly, functions hit execution or transaction limits, or the user mentions performance, latency, read amplification, or invalidation problems in a Convex app.
convex-migration-helper
Plans and executes safe Convex schema and data migrations using the widen-migrate-narrow workflow and the @convex-dev/migrations component. Use this skill when a deployment fails schema validation, existing documents need backfilling, fields need adding or removing or changing type, tables need splitting or merging, or a zero-downtime migration strategy is needed. Also use when the user mentions breaking schema changes, multi-deploy rollouts, or data transformations on existing Convex tables.
convex-create-component
Designs and builds Convex components with isolated tables, clear boundaries, and app-facing wrappers. Use this skill when creating a new Convex component, extracting reusable backend logic into a component, building a third-party integration that owns its own tables, packaging Convex functionality for reuse, or when the user mentions defineComponent, app.use, ComponentApi, ctx.runQuery/runMutation across component boundaries, or wants to separate concerns into isolated Convex modules.
azure-quotas
Check/manage Azure quotas and usage across providers. For deployment planning, capacity validation, region selection. WHEN: "check quotas", "service limits", "current usage", "request quota increase", "quota exceeded", "validate capacity", "regional availability", "provisioning limits", "vCPU limit", "how many vCPUs available in my subscription".
