name: convex-create-component
description: Designs and builds Convex components with isolated tables, clear boundaries, and app-facing wrappers. Use this skill when creating a new Convex component, extracting reusable backend logic into a component, building a third-party integration that owns its own tables, packaging Convex functionality for reuse, or when the user mentions defineComponent, app.use, ComponentApi, ctx.runQuery/runMutation across component boundaries, or wants to separate concerns into isolated Convex modules.

# Convex Create Component

Create reusable Convex components with clear boundaries and a small app-facing API.

## When to Use

- Creating a new Convex component in an existing app
- Extracting reusable backend logic into a component
- Building a third-party integration that should own its own tables and workflows
- Packaging Convex functionality for reuse across multiple apps

## When Not to Use

- One-off business logic that belongs in the main app
- Thin utilities that do not need Convex tables or functions
- App-level orchestration that should stay in `convex/`
- Cases where a normal TypeScript library is enough

## Workflow

1. Ask the user what they are building and what the end goal is. If the repo already makes the answer obvious, say so and confirm before proceeding.
2. Choose the shape using the decision tree below and read the matching reference file.
3. Decide whether a component is justified. Prefer normal app code or a regular library if the feature does not need isolated tables, backend functions, or reusable persistent state.
4. Make a short plan for:
   - what tables the component owns
   - what public functions it exposes
   - what data must be passed in from the app (auth, env vars, parent IDs)
   - what stays in the app as wrappers or HTTP mounts
5. Create the component structure with `convex.config.ts`, `schema.ts`, and function files.
6. Implement functions using the component's own `./_generated/server` imports, not the app's generated files.
7. Wire the component into the app with `app.use(...)`. If the app does not already have `convex/convex.config.ts`, create it.
8. Call the component from the app through `components.<name>` using `ctx.runQuery`, `ctx.runMutation`, or `ctx.runAction`.
9. If React clients, HTTP callers, or public APIs need access, create wrapper functions in the app instead of exposing component functions directly.
10. Run `npx convex dev` and fix codegen, type, or boundary issues before finishing.

## Choose the Shape

Ask the user, then pick one path:

| Goal                                              | Shape            | Reference                           |
| ------------------------------------------------- | ---------------- | ----------------------------------- |
| Component for this app only                       | Local            | `references/local-components.md`    |
| Publish or share across apps                      | Packaged         | `references/packaged-components.md` |
| User explicitly needs local + shared library code | Hybrid           | `references/hybrid-components.md`   |
| Not sure                                          | Default to local | `references/local-components.md`    |

Read exactly one reference file before proceeding.

## Default Approach

Unless the user explicitly wants an npm package, default to a local component:

- Put it under `convex/components/<componentName>/`
- Define it with `defineComponent(...)` in its own `convex.config.ts`
- Install it from the app's `convex/convex.config.ts` with `app.use(...)`
- Let `npx convex dev` generate the component's own `_generated/` files

## Component Skeleton

A minimal local component with a table and two functions, plus the app wiring.

```ts
// convex/components/notifications/convex.config.ts
import { defineComponent } from "convex/server";

export default defineComponent("notifications");
```

```ts
// convex/components/notifications/schema.ts
import { defineSchema, defineTable } from "convex/server";
import { v } from "convex/values";

export default defineSchema({
  notifications: defineTable({
    userId: v.string(),
    message: v.string(),
    read: v.boolean(),
  }).index("by_user", ["userId"]),
});
```

```ts
// convex/components/notifications/lib.ts
import { v } from "convex/values";
import { mutation, query } from "./_generated/server.js";

export const send = mutation({
  args: { userId: v.string(), message: v.string() },
  returns: v.id("notifications"),
  handler: async (ctx, args) => {
    return await ctx.db.insert("notifications", {
      userId: args.userId,
      message: args.message,
      read: false,
    });
  },
});

export const listUnread = query({
  args: { userId: v.string() },
  returns: v.array(
    v.object({
      _id: v.id("notifications"),
      _creationTime: v.number(),
      userId: v.string(),
      message: v.string(),
      read: v.boolean(),
    }),
  ),
  handler: async (ctx, args) => {
    return await ctx.db
      .query("notifications")
      .withIndex("by_user", (q) => q.eq("userId", args.userId))
      .filter((q) => q.eq(q.field("read"), false))
      .collect();
  },
});
```

```ts
// convex/convex.config.ts
import { defineApp } from "convex/server";
import notifications from "./components/notifications/convex.config.js";

const app = defineApp();
app.use(notifications);

export default app;
```

```ts
// convex/notifications.ts  (app-side wrapper)
import { v } from "convex/values";
import { mutation, query } from "./_generated/server";
import { components } from "./_generated/api";
import { getAuthUserId } from "@convex-dev/auth/server";

export const sendNotification = mutation({
  args: { message: v.string() },
  returns: v.null(),
  handler: async (ctx, args) => {
    const userId = await getAuthUserId(ctx);
    if (!userId) throw new Error("Not authenticated");

    await ctx.runMutation(components.notifications.lib.send, {
      userId,
      message: args.message,
    });
    return null;
  },
});

export const myUnread = query({
  args: {},
  handler: async (ctx) => {
    const userId = await getAuthUserId(ctx);
    if (!userId) throw new Error("Not authenticated");

    return await ctx.runQuery(components.notifications.lib.listUnread, {
      userId,
    });
  },
});
```

Note the reference path shape: a function in `convex/components/notifications/lib.ts` is called as `components.notifications.lib.send` from the app.

## Critical Rules

- Keep authentication in the app, because `ctx.auth` is not available inside components.
- Keep environment access in the app, because component functions cannot read `process.env`.
- Pass parent app IDs across the boundary as strings, because `Id` types become plain strings in the app-facing `ComponentApi`.
- Do not use `v.id("parentTable")` for app-owned tables inside component args or schema, because the component has no access to the app's table namespace.
- Import `query`, `mutation`, and `action` from the component's own `./_generated/server`, not the app's generated files.
- Do not expose component functions directly to clients. Create app wrappers when client access is needed, because components are internal and need auth/env wiring the app provides.
- If the component defines HTTP handlers, mount the routes in the app's `convex/http.ts`, because components cannot register their own HTTP routes.
- If the component needs pagination, use `paginator` from `convex-helpers` instead of built-in `.paginate()`, because `.paginate()` does not work across the component boundary.
- Add `args` and `returns` validators to all public component functions, because the component boundary requires explicit type contracts.

## Patterns

### Authentication and environment access

```ts
// Bad: component code cannot rely on app auth or env
const identity = await ctx.auth.getUserIdentity();
const apiKey = process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY;
```

```ts
// Good: the app resolves auth and env, then passes explicit values
const userId = await getAuthUserId(ctx);
if (!userId) throw new Error("Not authenticated");

await ctx.runAction(components.translator.translate, {
  userId,
  apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY,
  text: args.text,
});
```

### Client-facing API

```ts
// Bad: assuming a component function is directly callable by clients
export const send = components.notifications.send;
```

```ts
// Good: re-export through an app mutation or query
export const sendNotification = mutation({
  args: { message: v.string() },
  returns: v.null(),
  handler: async (ctx, args) => {
    const userId = await getAuthUserId(ctx);
    if (!userId) throw new Error("Not authenticated");

    await ctx.runMutation(components.notifications.lib.send, {
      userId,
      message: args.message,
    });
    return null;
  },
});
```

### IDs across the boundary

```ts
// Bad: parent app table IDs are not valid component validators
args: {
  userId: v.id("users");
}
```

```ts
// Good: treat parent-owned IDs as strings at the boundary
args: {
  userId: v.string();
}
```

### Advanced Patterns

For additional patterns including function handles for callbacks, deriving validators from schema, static configuration with a globals table, and class-based client wrappers, see `references/advanced-patterns.md`.

## Validation

Try validation in this order:

1. `npx convex codegen --component-dir convex/components/<name>`
2. `npx convex codegen`
3. `npx convex dev`

Important:

- Fresh repos may fail these commands until `CONVEX_DEPLOYMENT` is configured.
- Until codegen runs, component-local `./_generated/*` imports and app-side `components.<name>...` references will not typecheck.
- If validation blocks on Convex login or deployment setup, stop and ask the user for that exact step instead of guessing.

## Reference Files

Read exactly one of these after the user confirms the goal:

- `references/local-components.md`
- `references/packaged-components.md`
- `references/hybrid-components.md`

Official docs: [Authoring Components](https://docs.convex.dev/components/authoring)
