This plugin is the official Convex integration for Claude Code, bundling a backend design skill, a quickstart scaffolding skill, a convex-expert subagent, a runtime-error monitor, and an MCP server for live access to a Convex deployment. According to the README, it steers Claude toward Convex-specific patterns such as reactive queries, Convex Auth, and workflow components rather than generic backend code when building schema design, real-time sync, authentication, file storage, scheduled jobs, or AI agent chat features. It also includes a hook that blocks known anti-patterns before code is saved and a hook that verifies TypeScript and code generation correctness at the end of a turn. The README notes that the plugin sends anonymous usage telemetry, forwards inputs to a Convex scaffolding service when scaffolding flows are used, and can optionally share a redacted session with Convex to help improve the tools, subject to agent approval.
About the service
Convex is a reactive backend platform that provides a database, serverless functions, real-time synchronization, authentication, file storage, and scheduled/background job execution, as described on its homepage. It serves as a fullstack backend for web and mobile applications and offers additional modular components such as AI agent chat, durable workflow orchestration, and rate limiting.
What you can do with convex
- Ask Claude to design a Convex schema and backend architecture for a new or existing app
- Scaffold a working app quickly using the quickstart skill and its live build panel
- Delegate Convex-specific code writing (queries, mutations, actions) to the convex-expert subagent
- Receive notifications about runtime errors, OCC conflicts, and read-limit issues via monitoring hooks
- Inspect a live Convex deployment through the MCP server (tables, function specs, logs, environment variables)
- Add real-time sync, authentication, file storage, scheduled jobs, chat/AI agent features, and vector search using Convex components
