convex-backend
Convex backend development guidelines. Use when writing Convex functions, schemas, queries, mutations, actions, or any backend code in a Convex project. Triggers on tasks involving Convex database operations, real-time subscriptions, file storage, or serverless functions.
npx skills add CloudAI-X/claude-workflow-v2 --skill convex-backend --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Convex Backend Guidelines ### When to Load - **Trigger**: Convex-specific development, writing Convex functions, schemas, queries, mutations, actions, or real-time subscriptions - **Skip**: Project does not use Convex as its backend Comprehensive guide for building Convex backends with TypeScript. Covers function syntax, validators, schemas, queries, mutations, actions, scheduling, and file storage. ## When to Apply Reference these guidelines when: - Writing new Convex functions (queries, mutations, actions) - Defining database schemas and validators - Implementing real-time data fetching - Setting up cron jobs or scheduled functions - Working with file storage - Designing API structure ## Rule Categories | Category | Impact | Description | | ----------------- | -------- | --------------------------------------------- | | Function Syntax | CRITICAL | New function syntax with args/returns/handler | | Validators | CRITICAL | Type-safe argument and return validation | | Schema Design | HIGH | Table definitions, indexes, system fields | | Query Patterns | HIGH | Efficient data fetching with indexes | | Mutation Patterns | MEDIUM | Database writes, patch vs replace | | Action Patterns

What does the convex-backend skill do?
Convex backend development guidelines. Use when writing Convex functions, schemas, queries, mutations, actions, or any backend code in a Convex project. Triggers on tasks involving Convex database operations, real-time subscriptions, file storage, or serverless functions.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add CloudAI-X/claude-workflow-v2 --skill convex-backend --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From CloudAI-X/claude-workflow-v2, a repository with 1,397 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
