What it does

Convex Check Updates is an agent skill from openclaw/clawhub. Check the current app's pinned Convex components against recommended versions and upgrade them behind a build gate.

Its SKILL.md is about 400 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Skill + Plugin Registry for OpenClaw. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/convex-check-updates”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Run curl -fsSL https://graceful-tiger-715.convex.site/check-updates.mjs -o /tmp/cu.mjs && node /tmp/cu.mjs from the project root.
  2. If COMPONENTS_UP_TO_DATE: tell the user; done.
  3. If COMPONENTS_STALE=: list each stale entry (component name, installed → current, summary, breaking flag) and ask the user before touching…
  4. On yes: install the new ref, apply each migration.steps change (delegate convex/ edits to convex-expert), run every migration.gate command.
  5. If any gate command fails: revert (git checkout -- . or reinstall old ref) and report; never leave the app half-migrated.
  6. Give the user the smoke check (migration.smoke) to run after each successful upgrade.
  7. Repeat for each stale component, one at a time.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d044664. 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:

    • curl
    • node

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • graceful-tiger-715.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 Check Updates loads about 402 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 34 tokens; SKILL.md has 190 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~34
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~402

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.

check-updates

Detect stale Convex components in the current app against the anteater registry and, with explicit user consent, upgrade them one at a time behind a build gate (typecheck + next build). Each upgrade is gated and smoke-tested before the next.

Workflow

  1. Run curl -fsSL https://graceful-tiger-715.convex.site/check-updates.mjs -o /tmp/cu.mjs && node /tmp/cu.mjs from the project root.
  2. If COMPONENTS_UP_TO_DATE: tell the user; done.
  3. If COMPONENTS_STALE=<n>: list each stale entry (component name, installed → current, summary, breaking flag) and ask the user before touching anything.
  4. On yes: install the new ref, apply each migration.steps change (delegate convex/ edits to convex-expert), run every migration.gate command.
  5. If any gate command fails: revert (git checkout -- . or reinstall old ref) and report; never leave the app half-migrated.
  6. Give the user the smoke check (migration.smoke) to run after each successful upgrade.
  7. Repeat for each stale component, one at a time.

Rules

  • Never upgrade without an explicit user yes — not even a minor version.
  • Gate each component individually before moving to the next.
  • breaking:true upgrades require a snapshot (commit or branch) before applying.
  • Do not auto-republish a live *.convex.app site after upgrading without user confirmation.
