quickstart

Add a capability to the CURRENT Convex app — consults the served Convex capability catalog for always-current procedures (billing, crons, auth, agent, search, …); falls back to built-in hosting or @convex-dev component search. TRIGGER when the user runs /add, or asks to add hosting/publishing or any backend capability to an existing Convex app.

Add an AI agent / chatbot / RAG backend on Convex with @convex-dev/agent (durable threads, messages, tools, vector search). TRIGGER when the user wants an AI assistant/chatbot/agent or 'chat with my docs' feature. Calls models through the Convex AI Gateway — no provider key to manage.

Add authentication to the current Convex + web app — passkeys by default (OAuth/password optional), wired end to end incl. the auth.config.ts that's the #1 auth footgun. TRIGGER when the user wants login / sign-in / accounts / passkeys / OAuth for an existing app.

Add Stripe billing/payments/subscriptions to a Convex app via @convex-dev/stripe — checkout action, auto-verified webhook, server-side subscription gating. TRIGGER when the user wants payments/billing/subscriptions/a paywall/Stripe.

Audit and harden a Convex app's authorization: identity-from-arg impersonation, missing per-document ownership checks, public queries leaking data by a client-supplied id, and writes into a parent/container the caller doesn't own. Scans for the 4 shapes, applies requireIdentity/requireOwner, verifies with tsc. TRIGGER on 'secure my app', 'audit auth/authz', 'who can access this data'. SKIP when there is no convex/ directory.

Set up recurring scheduled jobs (crons) on Convex — digests, cleanups, polling, retries. TRIGGER when the user wants a recurring/scheduled task ('every day/hour', cron, periodic cleanup). Targets internal functions, idempotent handlers.

Design and build reactive, type-safe, production-grade backends on Convex. Covers schema, queries/mutations/actions, indexes, auth, file storage, scheduling, real-time multiplayer, mobile backends, and LLM/agent workflows on Convex's one-platform stack.

Wire a domain the user ALREADY OWNS (GoDaddy/Namecheap/Cloudflare/…) to their Convex app: exact DNS records, custom-domain attachment, auth-origin rebind. TRIGGER when the user owns a domain and wants it pointing at their app ('point my domain at this', 'use my own domain', 'set up example.com'). Never asks for registrar credentials.

Guidance for distinctive, intentional visual design when building new UI or reshaping an existing one. Helps with aesthetic direction, typography, and making choices that don't read as templated defaults.

No description in the SKILL.md.

Build a throwaway prototype to answer a design question. Use when the user wants to sanity-check whether a state model or logic feels right, or explore what a UI should look like.

React and Next.js performance optimization guidelines from Vercel Engineering. This skill should be used when writing, reviewing, or refactoring React/Next.js code to ensure optimal performance patterns. Triggers on tasks involving React components, Next.js pages, data fetching, bundle optimization, or performance improvements.

Review UI code for Web Interface Guidelines compliance. Use when asked to "review my UI", "check accessibility", "audit design", "review UX", or "check my site against best practices".

tasteskill 2.5.1, the anti-slop frontend skill. Builds professional company websites at the level of figma.com and x.ai: plain copy in a voice of its own, one system, one section per screen, equal edges, real photographs and real product UI (licensed stand-in photographs when the client has none; a product render only when the brief asks for 3D), a hero entrance and one or two dealt moments on every page, shader effects and scenes only on tech, gaming and software pages, quiet micro-interactions, and a checker and finish gate that enforce it in a real browser. Use this whenever you build, design, redesign, restyle, polish or review a landing page, company, product, shop, cafe, hotel, studio, SaaS, AI, developer-tool or game site, as static HTML/CSS or inside an existing React, Next.js, Vue, Svelte, Astro or Tailwind project, or when the user says a page looks generic, templated or "AI-made".

React composition patterns that scale. Use when refactoring components with boolean prop proliferation, building flexible component libraries, or designing reusable APIs. Triggers on tasks involving compound components, render props, context providers, or component architecture. Includes React 19 API changes.

UI/UX design intelligence for web, mobile, and desktop. This skill should be used when designing, building, reviewing, or fixing interfaces, including pages, components, design systems, accessibility, interaction, responsive layout, typography, color, charts, and stack-specific UI implementation. Searchable local data: 80 searchable styles (51 active), 192 product palettes and reasoning profiles, 74 font pairings, 120 UX guidelines, 105 icons, 17 GSAP presets, 25 chart types, and 22 stacks.
