Overview
# Convex (unofficial) Skills v1
[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@waynesutton/convex-skills)
[](LICENSE)
A collection of AI-consumable skills for building production-ready applications with [Convex](https://convex.dev), following the Agent Skills open format.
Overview
This repository contains skills that help AI assistants understand and implement Convex best practices. Each skill provides structured guidance for specific aspects of Convex development.
Installation
npm (recommended)
```bash
# Install globally for CLI access
npm install -g @waynesutton/convex-skills
# List available skills
convex-skills list
# Install a specific skill to your project
convex-skills install convex-best-practices
# Install all skills
convex-skills install-all
# Install templates (CLAUDE.md + skill templates)
convex-skills install-templates
```
Or use npx without installing:
```bash
npx @waynesutton/convex-skills list
npx @waynesutton/convex-skills install-all
```
Programmatic Usage
```bash
npm install @waynesutton/convex-skills
```
```javascript
import { listSkills, getSkill, SKILLS } from "@waynesutton/convex-skills";
// List all skills
console.log(listSkills());
// Get a specific skill's content
const content = getSkill("convex-best-practices");
```
Claude Code (from local clone)
```bash
git clone https://github.com/waynesutton/convexskills.git
cd convexskills
# Point Claude Code to this directory
```
Codex
Follow the Codex skills guide and place the skill under $CODEX_HOME/skills:
```bash
# From the repo root
# Defaults to ~/.codex if CODEX_HOME is unset
cp -r skills/convex-best-practices "$CODEX_HOME/skills/"
```
Codex will auto-discover SKILL.md files in that directory on the next start.
OpenCode
OpenCode discovers skills from ~/.claude/skills/ automatically. See OpenCode Skills docs for more details.
#### Slash Command
This repo includes a /convex slash command for OpenCode. Install the command by copying command/convex.md to your OpenCode commands directory:
```bash
# Copy the slash command
cp command/convex.md ~/.opencode/command/
# Usage in OpenCode
/convex create a schema with users and posts
/convex set up file uploads
/convex add a Stripe webhook endpoint
```
The slash command provides decision trees to route to the appropriate skill based on your task.
Manual Installation
Copy the desired skill's SKILL.md file to your project's .claude/skills/ directory.
