SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps you quickly identify the correct Convex guidance for building backend features, so you do not have to guess which pattern, convention, or sub-skill applies to your task.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Skill Routing: Directs you toward the most relevant Convex topic, such as functions, schema design, realtime updates, file storage, migrations, or security.
  • Developer Planning: Helps organize work for common Convex implementation tasks like queries, mutations, actions, HTTP endpoints, and scheduled jobs.
  • Production Guidance: Supports safer and more consistent backend decisions for app features that rely on Convex as the database and realtime layer.
  • Use Case: A developer building a customer portal can use this skill to determine whether the next step should be a query, mutation, schema change, or realtime subscription.

FAQPage Schema
How do I structure a Convex schema for realtime updates and file storage?

To structure a Convex schema for realtime updates and file storage, you route your app requirements to the correct backend pattern. This involves defining schema tables, configuring realtime queries, and setting up file storage workflows.

What is the best way to implement HTTP endpoints and cron jobs in a Convex backend?

The best way to implement HTTP endpoints and cron jobs in a Convex backend is to map these tasks to the correct development workflow. This ensures you use actions and scheduled jobs properly for reliable external API integrations and automated tasks.

When should I use queries, mutations, or actions for my Convex database operations?

You use queries for reading data, mutations for writing data, and actions for external side effects in your Convex database. Mapping your specific app need to the correct function type ensures safer and more consistent backend operations.

Does Convex support database migrations and security reviews for production apps?

Yes, Convex supports database migrations and security reviews for production apps. You route your development task to the specific implementation guidance for schema migrations and security reviews to maintain safe backend operations.

Can I organize my development workflow for a customer portal using Convex?

Yes, you can organize your development workflow for a customer portal using Convex. You determine whether your next step is a query, mutation, schema change, or realtime subscription to map high-level needs to appropriate solutions.
