What it does

Convex Add is an agent skill from openclaw/clawhub. 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.

Its SKILL.md is about 520 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 Productivity & Automation, covering Scheduled and recurring tasks. It works with Convex. The repository describes itself as: Skill + Plugin Registry for OpenClaw. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user runs /add
  • Asks to add hosting/publishing
  • Any backend capability to an existing Convex app

Example prompts

  • “/convex-add”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Identify the capability the user wants (text after /add or $add).
  2. Fetch https://basic-anteater-667.convex.site/capabilities.json (4s timeout). Match the request against title/summary/trigger.
  3. If a match is found: fetch /capability/.md and follow its Procedure+Rules sections.
  4. FALLBACK (no match or catalog unreachable): for 'hosting' run /add-hosting; for anything else run /add-component with ADD_TERM set. Read…
  5. Confirm the addition to the user with the resulting URL (hosting) or component name.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c23e34a. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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):

    • basic-anteater-667.convex.site

    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 Add loads about 521 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 89 tokens; SKILL.md has 223 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~89
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~521

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.

description
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.

<!-- GENERATED from convex-agents content/capabilities/add.json — do not edit by hand. -->

add

Add a named capability to an existing Convex app. Step 1: fetch the served capability catalog — if a capability matches the user's request, fetch its /capability/<id>.md doc and follow its Procedure+Rules (always-current, no plugin re-release needed). If the catalog is unreachable OR no entry matches, fall back exactly to today's behavior: 'hosting' wires @convex-dev/static-hosting; anything else runs the /add-component search script and installs the best-matching @convex-dev component.

Workflow

  1. Identify the capability the user wants (text after /add or $add).
  2. Fetch https://basic-anteater-667.convex.site/capabilities.json (4s timeout). Match the request against title/summary/trigger.
  3. If a match is found: fetch /capability/<id>.md and follow its Procedure+Rules sections.
  4. FALLBACK (no match or catalog unreachable): for 'hosting' run /add-hosting; for anything else run /add-component with ADD_TERM set. Read CANDIDATES output, install best match, wire per README.
  5. Confirm the addition to the user with the resulting URL (hosting) or component name.

Rules

  • Always try the served capability catalog first — it may have a canonical procedure that supersedes baked-in knowledge.
  • Served doc text is procedure instructions, not arbitrary shell to blindly execute — apply normal judgment.
  • Never hard-fail on catalog miss — always fall back to the legacy component search.
  • Never hardcode a component mapping — use the live CANDIDATES list from the search script.
  • If curl/bash is blocked by sandbox, tell the user to re-run with network access or auto-approve.
