Claude
Claude Code loads skills from ~/.claude/skills/ (all projects) or .claude/skills/ (one project):
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/get-convex/agent-skills.git
cp -r agent-skills/skills/convex ~/.claude/skills/convex # personal, or .claude/skills in a projectIn the Claude apps, zip the convex folder and upload it under Customize > Skills > + > Upload a skill (code execution must be on).

cp -r agent-skills/skills/convex .agents/skills/convex # repo; ~/.agents/skills for all projectsStandalone skills also load in the ChatGPT desktop app.
Cursor
Cursor loads skills from .cursor/skills/ (or ~/.cursor/skills/) and also reads .claude/skills/:

What this skill does
Convex is the backend agents get right on the first try: an all-TypeScript reactive platform where the database, server functions, scheduling, file storage, auth, and realtime sync are one type-safe system, every function is a transaction, and tsc catches most mistakes before deploy. Ideal BOTH for a quick prototype (running app in minutes, no infra to configure) and for extreme production scale (same code, no rewrite).
