SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Provides a structured approach to building Convex server functions (queries, mutations, actions, and HTTP actions) with strong input validation, clear error handling, and well-defined runtime considerations to minimize bugs and security risks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Typed validators for all function arguments and returns to ensure data integrity.
  • Coverage of queries, mutations, actions, and HTTP actions with examples and best practices.
  • Production-ready patterns including internal functions, error handling, and documentation-driven structure.

Quick Start

Create a new convex-functions skill and adapt its validators to your data model, then run the Convex development environment to verify behavior.

Frequently Asked Questions about convex-functions

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add argument validation to Convex mutations and queries?▼

Convex server functions require typed argument validators to ensure data integrity and runtime safety. Applying these validators to queries, mutations, and actions minimizes bugs and security risks across your backend.

What is the best way to structure Convex HTTP actions with error handling?▼

The best way to structure Convex HTTP actions is by using production-ready patterns that enforce clear error handling and typed validators. This approach ensures robust input validation and well-defined runtime considerations for your endpoints.

Does this approach support internal functions within my Convex backend?▼

Yes, this approach supports internal functions within your Convex backend. It provides production-ready patterns covering internal functions, queries, mutations, and HTTP actions to ensure comprehensive runtime safety.

How do I start building Convex server functions with safe patterns?▼

To start building Convex server functions, adapt the provided validators to your data model and run the Convex development environment to verify behavior. This ensures your queries and mutations maintain strong input validation.

Why do my Convex actions keep failing due to invalid input data?▼

Convex actions fail due to invalid input data when typed validators are not enforced for function arguments. Implementing robust validation and clear error handling prevents these runtime failures and ensures data integrity.
