What does the skill file contain?
# Convex Quickstart Set up a working Convex project as fast as possible. ## When to Use - Starting a brand new project with Convex - Adding Convex to an existing React, Next.js, Vue, Svelte, or other app - Scaffolding a Convex app for prototyping ## When Not to Use - The project already has Convex installed and `convex/` exists - just start building - You only need to add auth to an existing Convex app - use the `convex-setup-auth` skill ## Workflow 1. Determine the starting point: new project or existing app 2. If new project, pick a template and scaffold with `npm create convex@la...
Frequently asked questions
Does this skill handle user authentication for the Convex deployment?
No. It uses anonymous mode for local development. For full authentication setup, use the convex-setup-auth skill.
How does the skill verify that the code is correct?
It runs npx convex dev --once, which pushes code to a local deployment, performs typechecks, and validates the schema.
Should I run the Convex watcher in the foreground?
No. The agent should either ask the user to run the watcher or start it in the background, as the watcher is a long-running process.
