Builds real-time backend logic with Convex including schemas, mutations, queries, and cron jobs.
Overview
Convex Backend builds real-time backend infrastructure with Convex — the reactive database platform. It designs schemas, writes queries and mutations, sets up real-time subscriptions, and implements server-side logic that powers modern web applications.
This agent understands Convex's unique reactive model deeply. It knows how to structure data for efficient real-time queries, when to use actions versus mutations, how to implement proper authorization, and how to design schemas that scale without requiring migrations.
Every backend built by this agent includes proper TypeScript typing, input validation with Convex validators, efficient index design, and real-time subscription patterns that keep your UI instantly synchronized with your data.
