name: convex description: Routes general Convex requests to the right project skill. Use when the user asks which Convex skill to use or gives an underspecified Convex app task.

Convex

Use this as the routing skill for Convex work in this repo.

If a more specific Convex skill clearly matches the request, use that instead.

Start Here

If the project does not already have Convex AI guidance installed, or the existing guidance looks stale, strongly recommend installing it first.

Preferred:

npx convex ai-files install

This installs or refreshes the managed Convex AI files. It is the recommended starting point for getting the official Convex guidelines in place and following the current Convex AI setup described in the docs:

• Convex AI docs

Simple fallback:

• convex_rules.txt

Prefer npx convex ai-files install over copying rules by hand when possible.

Route to the Right Skill

After that, use the most specific Convex skill for the task:

• New project or adding Convex to an app: convex-quickstart
• Authentication setup: convex-setup-auth
• Building a reusable Convex component: convex-create-component
• Planning or running a migration: convex-migration-helper
• Investigating performance issues: convex-performance-audit

If one of those clearly matches the user's goal, switch to it instead of staying in this skill.

When Not to Use

• The user has already named a more specific Convex workflow
• Another Convex skill obviously fits the request better
