What problem does it solve? Setting up a Convex backend involves scaffolding, provisioning a deployment, wiring environment variables, and connecting a frontend provider, which is error-prone when done manually. This Skill walks an AI agent through the entire setup so the project reaches a working, typechecked state quickly. ## Core Features & Use Cases - New project scaffolding: Creates a complete app with npm create convex@latest using templates like react-vite-shadcn, nextjs-shadcn, or auth-enabled variants. - Existing app integration: Installs the convex package, wires the ConvexProvider into React, Next.js, Vue, Svelte, or other frameworks, and configures the correct environment variables. - Agent-friendly provisioning: Uses npx convex dev --once with anonymous agent mode to provision a local backend, push code, validate the schema, and typecheck without browser logins. - Use Case: A developer starting a new React app asks the agent to set up Convex; the agent scaffolds the template, provisions the deployment, verifies the generated types, and confirms a query/mutation round-trip works. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to set up Convex for this project, choosing between scaffolding a new app or integrating into the existing frontend, and verify the setup works.
