convex-dev-action-cache

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates repeated expensive AI and third-party API calls in Convex actions by storing successful results with configurable TTL, reducing latency and API costs.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Transparent Caching: Wrap expensive action logic so identical inputs return cached results instead of re-running slow operations.
• Configurable TTL & Invalidation: Set expiration per namespace and manually invalidate entries when external data changes.
• Error-safe Storage: Only successful results are cached; errors propagate and are not stored to avoid poisoning the cache.
• Use Case: Cache OpenRouter/LLM responses or third-party API results in Convex backend actions to lower cost and improve response times.

Quick Start

Use the convex-dev-action-cache component to cache an AI API response inside a Convex action with a configurable TTL so repeated requests return instantly.
