Build a durable multi-step pipeline on Convex where each step runs in order and is retried independently on failure (transcribe→summarize→email, ETL, order fulfillment, any 'do A then B then C, retry each' job). Use @convex-dev/workflow — do NOT hand-roll a chain of scheduler calls or a custom jobs table. TRIGGER on multi-step / pipeline / 'retry each step' / long-running orchestration requests.
Send THIS Codex session's transcript to the Convex quickstart backend for an AI post-mortem that improves the whole system (runbook, bootstrap, skills). TRIGGER when the user runs $improve-convex-plugin, or after a quickstart build says 'send feedback', 'report how that went', or 'help improve the quickstart'.
LABS — the FULL Convex quickstart experience: scaffold a running Next.js + shadcn app from one sentence with passkey (WebAuthn) sign-in and a live in-app Chef feedback panel pre-baked, build the idea live, then PUBLISH it to a public https://<app>.convex.app URL (with the user's confirmation before publishing). TRIGGER when the user runs $labs-quickstart, or asks for the full/labs quickstart, a published/public app, sign-in/passkeys, or the in-app feedback panel from scratch. For a plain local-only scaffold use $quickstart instead. SKIP when there's already a Convex project in the cwd.
Backward-compatible alias for improve-convex-plugin. Send THIS Codex session's transcript to the Convex quickstart backend for an AI post-mortem that improves the whole system. TRIGGER when the user runs $quickstart-improve (the former name of $improve-convex-plugin).
Scaffold a running Next.js + shadcn Convex app from one sentence — convex dev + next dev already running — then build the idea live (runs locally). TRIGGER when the user wants to START a new Convex app from scratch — e.g. they ran $quickstart, said 'scaffold a new app', 'build me an app where users can ___', or 'new app'. SKIP when there's already a Convex project in the cwd.
Add sign-in (passkeys by default, OAuth/password optional) to the current Convex app, wired correctly incl. auth.config.ts. TRIGGER on a login/auth request for an existing app.
