SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the critical need for robust security in Convex applications by providing comprehensive patterns and best practices for auditing authorization, data access, action isolation, rate limiting, and sensitive operations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Authorization Logic: Implement and audit role-based access control (RBAC) and permission checks.
  • Data Access Boundaries: Ensure users can only access data they are authorized to see, including ownership verification and shared resource controls.
  • Action Isolation: Securely interact with external APIs and protect sensitive internal actions.
  • Rate Limiting: Prevent abuse and ensure service stability with configurable rate limits.
  • Sensitive Operations Protection: Add multi-factor confirmation and audit trails for destructive or critical actions.
  • Use Case: A developer can use this Skill to systematically review their Convex application's security posture, identifying and mitigating potential vulnerabilities before deployment.

Quick Start

Use the convex-security-audit skill to review the authorization logic for user roles in your Convex application.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit authorization logic in Convex applications?

Securing external API calls in Convex requires action isolation patterns that protect sensitive internal operations from unauthorized access. This Skill provides code examples for securely interacting with external services and isolating actions to prevent exposure of sensitive operations.

How do I implement rate limiting in Convex to prevent API abuse?

Implementing rate limiting in Convex requires configurable enforcement patterns that prevent abuse and ensure service stability. This Skill offers code examples for applying rate limits to operations, protecting against excessive requests and mitigating potential vulnerabilities.

What is the best way to protect destructive actions in Convex?

Protecting destructive actions in Convex requires adding multi-factor confirmation flows and audit trails for critical operations. This Skill provides patterns to safeguard sensitive operations, ensuring destructive actions require explicit confirmation before execution.

How do I verify data ownership and enforce access boundaries in Convex?

Verifying data ownership in Convex involves implementing checks that ensure users can only access data they are authorized to see, including shared resource controls. This Skill provides audit patterns for data access boundaries and ownership verification to prevent unauthorized access.

Does this security audit approach cover production best practices for Convex?

This security audit approach addresses production best practices for Convex by identifying common pitfalls and providing comprehensive patterns for authorization, data access, and rate limiting. It helps developers mitigate vulnerabilities and review their application's security posture before deployment.
