What it does

Convex Insights is an agent skill from openclaw/clawhub. Query a running Convex app's logs + health in natural language (official MCP): failures, slow/expensive functions, deploy causality — scoped, evidence-backed, with a dashboard deep link.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k 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 Mobile. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Skill + Plugin Registry for OpenClaw. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Mobile work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/convex-insights”

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

    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

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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 Insights loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 593 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~51
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

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.

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

Query logs + health in natural language

The deployment already records what happened; the agent just has to ask well. This capability is a disciplined wrapper over the official Convex MCP's read tools (logs, insights, functionSpec, status) that turns operational questions into narrow, evidence-returning queries and hands back answers a human can one-click verify in the dashboard. The discipline is copied from the observability MCP surface that works best in the wild: discover fields before querying, three views not fifteen tools, token-frugal output, and a dashboard deep link on every answer.

Workflow

  1. GUARD: deploy-guard step 0-1 — identify + announce which deployment is being read. Reading logs/insights is read-only; never enable prod mutation flags for an insights pass.
  2. DISCOVER before you query — never guess identifiers. Use functionSpec to list the real function names and status for the deployment/version. Note the tool limits up front: logs takes only --history <n> (a COUNT, not a time window), --success, --jsonl, --prod, --deployment — there is NO server-side status/function/requestId/time filter; insights has no function filter and is cloud dev/prod + user-auth only. So you fetch a recent window and filter CLIENT-SIDE.
  3. PICK ONE OF THREE VIEWS and fetch the raw window, then filter locally:
    • failures view → logs --history <n> --jsonl, then locally keep failures + group by function + error message, returning counts + the first stack per group. Answers 'what's erroring', 'what failed after deploy'.
    • health view → insights (cloud only): the typed 72h read-limit / OCC events. Surface + rank them, but hand perf/cost ROOT-CAUSING and fixes to convex-advisor — emit those as pointer findings, do not own the perf-fix framing here.
    • trace view → logs --history <n> --jsonl then locally filter to one requestId/function to read the full execution. Answers 'why did THIS call fail'.
  4. SCOPE by fetching a bounded recent window (a sensible --history count) and filtering client-side to the function/status/requestId asked about; when the window is large, aggregate (counts by function/message) rather than dumping lines.
  5. ANSWER with (a) the one-line finding, (b) the evidence (counts + one representative stack/log line), and (c) WHEN POSSIBLE an agent-constructed dashboard deep link (dashboard.convex.dev, the deployment's Logs/Functions view) for human verification — no tool returns the link, so build it from the deployment name + function; never a raw log dump as the answer.
  6. CROSS-CHECK deploy causality when asked 'did my deploy break this': compare the failure onset (from the log timestamps) against the deployment version from status; correlate, don't assert.
  7. HAND OFF, don't fix here: a perf/cost cause → convex-advisor (which owns those fixes); a code defect → convex-reviewer/convex-authz; a live error to react to going forward → monitor/sentinel. Emit findings on the bus (specs/finding.schema.json) — primarily observability, with perf/cost as pointer findings to advisor — so a composite pass can pick them up.

Rules

  • Discover real function/field names (functionSpec/status) before filtering — never guess identifiers, never return a confusing empty result for a name the app doesn't have.
  • logs and insights have NO server-side status/function/requestId/time-window filter (logs takes only a --history COUNT; insights is cloud-only) — fetch a bounded recent window and filter CLIENT-SIDE; say so rather than implying params that don't exist.
  • One of three views per question (failures / health / trace) — don't fan out into many speculative tool calls.
  • No tool returns a dashboard link — construct it from the deployment name + function when possible for human verification; never answer with a raw log dump.
  • Read-only always: an insights pass runs no mutation and never enables prod mutation flags (deploy-guard discipline).
  • Stay a reader and defer perf/cost fixes to convex-advisor: emit primarily observability, route perf/cost as POINTER findings so advisor uniquely owns the perf-fix framing; forward-looking reaction goes to monitor/sentinel.
