convex-insights

convex-insights is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from get-convex/agent-skills. It costs 45 tokens per session (1,007 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of convex-insights, Apache-2.0.

A natural-language view of a running Convex app’s logs and health, with evidence about failures, slow functions, costly functions, and deployment-related causes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Investigating errors, performance issues, expensive functions, and whether a deployment caused a problem.
Why use it?
It reduces the need to search logs manually when diagnosing problems in a live app.

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-insights scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 12d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 33 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

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.

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.
