What it does
Convex Best Practices is an agent skill from julianromli/ai-skills. Guidelines for building production-ready Convex apps covering function organization, query patterns, validation, TypeScript usage, error handling, and the Zen of Convex design philosophy
Its SKILL.md is about 2.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Development, covering Error handling. It works with TypeScript. The repository describes itself as: Claude Code, Droid, etc. Skills Ability.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Error handling
Example prompts
- “Use the convex-best-practices skill to guideline for building production-ready Convex apps covering function organization, query patterns…”
- “/convex-best-practices”
Requirements
- Node.js
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Convex manages the hard parts - Let Convex handle caching, real-time sync, and consistency
- Functions are the API - Design your functions as your application's interface
- Schema is truth - Define your data model explicitly in schema.ts
- TypeScript everywhere - Leverage end-to-end type safety
- Queries are reactive - Think in terms of subscriptions, not requests
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cf41ea2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npmnpx
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
docs.convex.dev
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Convex Best Practices loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 347 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 347 words (~2,420 tokens).
“Build production-ready Convex applications by following established patterns for function organization, query optimization, validation, TypeScript usage, and error handling.”
