+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)
