Chapter 1 of 20
Create or inspect Convex accounts. Use when the user wants to set up a new account, check account details, or manage keys.
1 minute · 205 words · 6 sections
Accounts are self-sovereign: an address like #1337 controlled by a key pair.
See the convex-lisp skill for CVM conventions.
Always available from a built convex.jar:
java -jar convex.jar account create # create an account
java -jar convex.jar account info #13 # full account record
java -jar convex.jar account balance #13 # coin balance
java -jar convex.jar account fund #13 # fund from the faucet, where available
java -jar convex.jar key generate # new key pair in the keystore
java -jar convex.jar key list # keys in the keystore
java -jar convex.jar key import|export|delete|sign--keystore and --storepass select the keystore; -k/--key and
-p/--keypass select a key within it. Add --host/--port to target a
specific network.
If one is configured (tool names look like mcp__<server>__…) — it is set up
per user, not by this repository, so check before relying on it:
signingCreateAccount — key pair plus on-chain
account, optionally funded from the faucetkeyGen, then createAccount with the public keydescribeAccount (full record), getBalance (balance only)signingListKeys, signingListAccounts, signingCreateKey(account #ADDR) returns the full account record; (balance #ADDR) the coin
balance. Both are free — see the query skill.
Save the seed when an account is created — it cannot be recovered. Tell the user explicitly at the moment of creation, not afterwards.
Never write a seed or passphrase into a file in the repository, a commit message, or any output that will be shared onward. If the user pastes one, use it for the operation at hand and do not repeat it back.

npx skills add Convex-Dev/convexSkills install per repository, not per chapter — the CLI has no documented per-skill form, so we do not print one.
develop, last pushed 8 August 2026.SKILL.md, not by matching a directory convention. One layout observed: .claude/skills/*/SKILL.md.h1 and no skipped levels:/Convex-Dev/convex.md, and each chapter at its own .md URL.
