SKILL.md

Convex is a reactive backend-as-a-service that provides real-time data synchronization, ACID transactions, and TypeScript-first development. This skill covers the core mental model, function types, layered architecture patterns, and HTTP action implementation.

CRITICAL RULE: This codebase has @typescript-eslint/no-explicit-any enabled. Using any will cause build failures.

Convex intentionally constrains you. When something feels like an anti-pattern, it's usually Convex telling you to rethink the approach.

Guide for Convex backend development fundamentals including function types (queries, mutations, actions), layered architecture, HTTP actions, and the core mental model. Use when building Convex backends, creating queries/mutations/actions, implementing HTTP webhooks, or understanding Convex's reactive data model. Activates for Convex project setup, function definition, API design, or backend architecture tasks. Source: fluid-tools/claude-skills.
