<objective>
Provide comprehensive Convex development guidance to avoid common mistakes and ensure code compiles on first try.
</objective>
<quick_reference>
Key rules (full details in references/guide.md):
**Functions**: Import from `./_generated/server`, use `query({ args, handler })` syntax
**Indexes**: Never use `.filter()` - use `.withIndex()`. Never define `by_creation_time` index
**Actions**: Add `"use node";` at top, never use `ctx.db` - use `ctx.runQuery`/`ctx.runMutation`
**Scheduler**: Auth does NOT propagate - use internal functions
**React**: Never call hooks conditionally - use `"skip"` pattern
</quick_reference>
<process>
1. Read `references/guide.md` for comprehensive Convex patterns
2. Apply patterns to the specific task
3. Verify against the checklist in section 18 of the guide
