Overview

## What Convex does

Convex is a reactive, type-safe backend for JavaScript and TypeScript applications. This app supplies ChatGPT with concrete setup instructions for it, covering new projects, integration with a frontend that already exists, and the questions that come up when scaling in production.

A quickstart runbook ships with the app, together with skills for adding Convex to a project, checking for updates, expert guidance, code review, and domains. Bundling them is meant to keep an agent on current deployment, authentication, and component patterns instead of reconstructing them from older training data.

The example prompt asks for a real-time collaborative task board where changes appear immediately for every participant.

### Who it is for

JavaScript and TypeScript developers adopting Convex or working out how an existing deployment should scale.

### What stands out

The bundled runbook and reviewer skills exist to keep generated backend code aligned with present-day Convex conventions.

Availability

## Where Convex is listed

Convex is listed in the ChatGPT apps directory only. Convex, Inc has no connector under the same domain in the Claude directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them.

ChatGPT apps are built on MCP, and the same server can back a Claude connector, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one.
