Convex

add

Add a capability to the CURRENT Convex + Next.js project — consults the served Convex capability catalog for always-current procedures (billing, crons, auth, agent, search, …); falls back to built-in hosting or @convex-dev component search. TRIGGER when the user runs $add, or asks to add hosting/publishing or any backend capability to an existing Convex app.

check-updates

Check the CURRENT Convex app's pinned components against the latest recommended versions and offer to upgrade them — e.g. the passkey auth component's new email-first sign-in. TRIGGER when the user runs /check-updates or $check-updates, asks 'are my components up to date', 'any updates', 'upgrade auth', 'upgrade my components', or wants the newest features after a quickstart. Applies each upgrade behind a build gate (verify-or-revert) with the user's consent.

convex-expert

Convex backend rules — consult this whenever writing or editing any code inside a convex/ directory (schemas, queries, mutations, actions, HTTP endpoints, crons, file storage, auth, component installation). TRIGGER before touching convex/ functions, so the code uses the object-form syntax, validators, indexes, and component patterns that generic models get wrong.

convex-reviewer

Review Convex code for security, auth, validators, performance, and best practices. TRIGGER when the user asks to review/audit Convex code, or after writing convex/ functions you want checked. Applies the Convex-specific review checklist (auth checks, args/returns validators, internal vs public, indexes-not-filter, OCC conflicts, pagination).

domains

Wire a domain the user ALREADY OWNS (GoDaddy/Namecheap/Cloudflare/…) to their Convex app: exact DNS records, custom-domain attachment, auth-origin rebind. TRIGGER when the user owns a domain and wants it pointing at their app ('point my domain at this', 'use my own domain', 'set up example.com'). Never asks for registrar credentials.

labs-quickstart

LABS — the FULL Convex quickstart experience: scaffold a running Next.js + shadcn app from one sentence with passkey (WebAuthn) sign-in and a live in-app Chef feedback panel pre-baked, build the idea live, then PUBLISH it to a public https://<app>.convex.app URL (with the user's confirmation before publishing). TRIGGER when the user runs $labs-quickstart, or asks for the full/labs quickstart, a published/public app, sign-in/passkeys, or the in-app feedback panel from scratch. For a plain local-only scaffold use $quickstart instead. SKIP when there's already a Convex project in the cwd.

quickstart

Scaffold a running Next.js + shadcn Convex app from one sentence — convex dev + next dev already running — then build the idea live (runs locally). TRIGGER when the user wants to START a new Convex app from scratch — e.g. they ran $quickstart, said 'scaffold a new app', 'build me an app where users can ___', or 'new app'. SKIP when there's already a Convex project in the cwd.

quickstart-improve

Send THIS Codex session's transcript to the Convex quickstart backend for an AI post-mortem that improves the whole system (runbook, bootstrap, skills). TRIGGER when the user runs $quickstart-improve, or after a quickstart build says 'send feedback', 'report how that went', or 'help improve the quickstart'.
