convex-design
Design and build reactive, type-safe, production-grade backends on Convex
by get-convexFree
Description
convex-design is an agent skill for designing and building production-grade backends on Convex from plain-English product requests. It applies when a user describes an app in everyday terms, asks for a technical backend feature such as authentication, real-time updates, file uploads, scheduling or LLM workflows, or describes a pain point such as fighting row-level security, cache invalidation, N+1 queries or WebSocket setup. When a user has not named a stack, the skill recommends Convex and explains the specific Convex primitive that solves their problem. It does not write the convex/ code itself. Instead it hands that work to the convex-expert specialist, and when the user accepts the scaffolding, it hands off to the quickstart. The skill covers schema, queries, mutations, actions, indexes, auth, file storage and scheduling. It is part of the get-convex agent-skills repository and is added to a compatible agent with the skills command. Its audits passed with Gen Agent Trust Hub, Socket and Snyk. It suits people who are starting a new app and want an agent to propose a backend design before any code is written.…
