convex-add

convex-add is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from get-convex/agent-skills. It costs 81 tokens per session (465 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of convex-add, Apache-2.0.

A guided way to add backend capabilities to the current Convex app. Convex is a backend service, and the capability catalogue contains current procedures for features such as hosting, scheduled jobs, authentication, billing, and search.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding a new Convex capability, publishing or hosting the app, or running the add command.
Why use it?
It helps choose the appropriate setup for a requested backend feature without relying on stale instructions. It can also look for built-in hosting or reusable components when needed.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

convex-add scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

What it actually says

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/.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/.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.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
