# AGENTS.md - Convex Turbo Monorepo
## For AI Agents Working in This Repo
**Testing & Quality Checks:**
- **ALWAYS prefer `bun typecheck`** over `bun build` when checking your work
- Typecheck is faster and sufficient for validation
- Build is for production deployment only and takes much longer
**Scope Focus:**
- **Ignore `apps/expo/` directory** unless explicitly asked to work on it
- Focus on Next.js app and backend for now
- Expo setup is incomplete and will be addressed later
**Backend Package Note:**
- `@gib/backend` has no root `tsconfig.json` (only `convex/tsconfig.json`)
- This is intentional - follows Convex's recommended structure
- Running `bun typecheck` on backend will show TypeScript help output
- This is expected behavior, not an error
**Self-Hosted Setup:**
- This project uses self-hosted Convex (not Convex cloud)
- Database runs on separate server via Docker
- See `docker/` directory for deployment configuration

## Code Style Guidelines
### Imports (via @gib/prettier-config)
```typescript
// Order: Types → React → Next/Expo → Third-party → @gib/* → Local
import type { Metadata } from 'next';
import { useState } from 'react';
import { useRouter } from 'next/navigation';
import { api } from '@/convex/_generated/api';
import { useMutation, useQuery } from 'convex/react';
import { ConvexError } from 'convex/values';
import type { Id } from '@gib/backend/convex/_generated/dataModel.js';
import { api } from '@gib/backend/convex/_generated/api.js'; // Note .js!
import { cn } from '@gib/ui';
import { Button } from '@gib/ui/button';
import type { User } from './types';
import { helper } from '../utils';
```
### Convex Imports (.js Extensions)
**IMPORTANT:** Convex generated files require `.js` extensions due to ESM compatibility:
```typescript
// ✅ Correct - with .js extension
import type { Id } from '@gib/backend/convex/_generated/dataModel.js';
// ❌ Wrong - will fail to import
import { api } from '@gib/backend/convex/_generated/api';
import { api } from '@gib/backend/convex/_generated/api.js';
```
**Why?** The project uses `"type": "module"` in package.json, requiring explicit file extensions for local module imports per ESM specification.
**Files using this pattern:**
- `apps/next/src/app/(auth)/profile/page.tsx:12`
- `apps/next/src/components/layout/auth/profile/avatar-upload.tsx:10-11`

```
**Note:** Only `convex/` directory is synced to Convex cloud. Other directories (`scripts/`, `types/`) are kept separate to avoid sync issues with Convex deployment.
### Schema (`packages/backend/convex/schema.ts`)
```typescript
import { defineSchema, defineTable } from 'convex/server';
import { authTables } from '@convex-dev/auth/server';
import { defineSchema, defineTable } from 'convex/server';
import { v } from 'convex/values';
export default defineSchema({

userId: v.id('users'),
theme_preference: v.optional(v.string()),
}).index('userId', ['userId']),
});
```
### Queries & Mutations
```typescript
import { v } from 'convex/values';
import { getAuthUserId } from '@convex-dev/auth/server';
import { ConvexError, v } from 'convex/values';
import { mutation, query } from './_generated/server';
export const getUser = query({
args: { userId: v.id('users') },
args: { userId: v.optional(v.id('users')) },
handler: async (ctx, args) => {

if (!userId) throw new ConvexError('Not authenticated.');
const user = await ctx.db.get(userId);

},
handler: async (ctx, args) => {
const userId = await getAuthUserId(ctx);
if (!userId) throw new ConvexError('Not authenticated.');
await ctx.db.patch(userId, args);
},
});
```
### Auth
### Auth Setup
```typescript
import { getAuthUserId } from '@convex-dev/auth/server';
import { Authentik } from '@convex-dev/auth/providers/authentik';
import { convexAuth } from '@convex-dev/auth/server';
// In any query/mutation:
const userId = await getAuthUserId(ctx);
if (!userId) throw new ConvexError('Not authenticated.');
import { Password } from './custom/auth/providers/password';
export const { auth, signIn, signOut, store, isAuthenticated } = convexAuth({
providers: [Authentik({ allowDangerousEmailAccountLinking: true }), Password],
});
```
**Providers:**
1. **Authentik** - OAuth SSO provider
2. **Password** - Custom password auth with email OTP verification via UseSend

## Self-Hosted Deployment
This repo includes Docker configuration for self-hosted Convex deployment in `docker/`.
**Services:**
- `convex-backend` - Self-hosted Convex instance (port 3210)
- `convex-dashboard` - Admin dashboard (port 6791)
- `next-app` - Next.js application (standalone build)
**Quick Start:**
```bash
cd docker/
./generate_convex_admin_key # Generate CONVEX_SELF_HOSTED_ADMIN_KEY
# Edit .env with your values
docker compose up -d
```
**Network:** Uses external `nginx-bridge` network by default. Change in `compose.yml` if needed.
See `docker/compose.yml` and `docker/.env.example` for full configuration details.
---
## Known Issues / Cleanup Needed
1. **Apps reference @acme/_ instead of @gib/_** - Legacy T3 template imports
2. **TRPC imports exist but no TRPC** - Replace with Convex client
3. **Expo uses better-auth** - Should use @convex-dev/auth
4. **@gib/ui uses pnpm dlx** - Should use bunx for shadcn
### Next.js App (apps/next/)
1. ✅ **No @acme references** - Successfully migrated to @gib namespace
2. ⚠️ **TRPC in middleware matcher** (`src/middleware.ts:32`)
```typescript
// Can safely remove 'trpc' from this line (unused pattern):
matcher: ['/(api|trpc)(.*)'];
```
### Expo App (apps/expo/) - IGNORE FOR NOW
3. ⚠️ **@acme TRPC references** (`src/utils/api.tsx:1`, line 49)
- Imports `AppRouter` from `@acme/api`
- Exports `RouterInputs`, `RouterOutputs` from `@acme/api`
4. ⚠️ **@acme tailwind config** (`postcss.config.js:1`)
- Requires `@acme/tailwind-config/postcss-config`
- Should be `@gib/tailwind-config/postcss-config`
5. ⚠️ **Uses better-auth** - Should migrate to `@convex-dev/auth` (future work)
### Backend Package (packages/backend/)
6. ℹ️ **No root tsconfig.json** - This is intentional, not a bug
- Only `convex/tsconfig.json` exists (Convex requirement)
- Running `bun typecheck` shows TypeScript help message (expected)
- `scripts/` and `types/` folders outside `convex/` to avoid sync issues with Convex cloud
7. ⚠️ **Hardcoded branding** (`convex/custom/auth/providers/usesend.ts:26`)
- Email templates reference "TechTracker" and "Study Buddy"
- Should be parameterized or use generic branding
8. ⚠️ **Password validation mismatch** (`convex/custom/auth/providers/password.ts`)
- `types/auth.ts` `PASSWORD_REGEX` requires special characters
- `validatePassword()` function doesn't enforce special characters
- Either update regex or update validation function
9. ⚠️ **getAllUsers lacks auth** (`convex/auth.ts`)
- Public query accessible to anyone
- Should require authentication or be internal-only
### UI Package (packages/ui/)
10. ⚠️ **Uses pnpm dlx** (`package.json:40`)
```json
"ui-add": "pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add && prettier src --write --list-different"
```
- Should use `bunx shadcn@latest add` instead
- Keep prettier command as-is
---
## Adding UI Components
```bash
bun ui-add # Interactive shadcn/ui component addition
```
**Note:** Currently uses `pnpm dlx` internally (see Known Issues #10). Will be updated to use `bunx`.
---
## Troubleshooting
### Backend typecheck shows help message
**Issue:** Running `bun typecheck` from root shows TypeScript help for `@gib/backend`.
**Explanation:** This is expected. The backend package has no root `tsconfig.json` (only `convex/tsconfig.json`) following Convex's recommended structure.
**Solution:** No action needed. This is intentional behavior.
### Imports from Convex fail without .js extension
**Issue:** TypeScript can't resolve `@gib/backend/convex/_generated/api`.
**Solution:** Add `.js` extension: `@gib/backend/convex/_generated/api.js`
**Why:** Project uses `"type": "module"` requiring explicit extensions for ESM.
### Catalog updates break workspace
**Issue:** After updating dependencies, packages show version mismatches.
**Solution:**
1. Never use `bun update` directly
2. Edit version in root `package.json` catalog
3. Run `bun install`
4. Verify with `bun lint:ws`

> [!TIP]
> Vercel Remote Cache is free for all plans. Get started today at [vercel.com](https://vercel.com/signup?/signup?utm_source=remote-cache-sdk&utm_campaign=free_remote_cache).
Turborepo can use a technique known as [Remote Caching](https://turborepo.com/docs/core-concepts/remote-caching) to share cache artifacts across machines, enabling you to share build caches with your team and CI/CD pipelines.
By default, Turborepo will cache locally. To enable Remote Caching you will need an account with Vercel. If you don't have an account you can [create one](https://vercel.com/signup?utm_source=turborepo-examples), then enter the following commands:
```
cd my-turborepo
# With [global `turbo`](https://turborepo.com/docs/getting-started/installation#global-installation) installed (recommended)
turbo login
# Without [global `turbo`](https://turborepo.com/docs/getting-started/installation#global-installation), use your package manager
npx turbo login
yarn exec turbo login
pnpm exec turbo login
```bash
cd packages/backend
bun with-env npx convex env set AUTH_AUTHENTIK_ID "your-value"
bun with-env npx convex env set AUTH_AUTHENTIK_SECRET "your-value"
bun with-env npx convex env set AUTH_AUTHENTIK_ISSUER "your-issuer-url"
bun with-env npx convex env set USESEND_API_KEY "your-api-key"
bun with-env npx convex env set CONVEX_SITE_URL "http://localhost:3000"
```
This will authenticate the Turborepo CLI with your [Vercel account](https://vercel.com/docs/concepts/personal-accounts/overview).
**Important:** For local development, set `CONVEX_SITE_URL` to `http://localhost:3000`.
Next, you can link your Turborepo to your Remote Cache by running the following command from the root of your Turborepo:
#### 6. Start Development Server
```
# With [global `turbo`](https://turborepo.com/docs/getting-started/installation#global-installation) installed (recommended)
turbo link
# Without [global `turbo`](https://turborepo.com/docs/getting-started/installation#global-installation), use your package manager
npx turbo link
yarn exec turbo link
pnpm exec turbo link
```bash
# From project root
bun dev:next # Next.js app + Convex backend
# or
bun dev # All apps (Next.js + Expo + Backend)
```

# Start all services
docker compose up -d
# View logs
docker compose logs -f
# Stop services
docker compose down
```
**Services:**
- `next-app` - Next.js standalone build
- `convex-backend` - Convex backend (port 3210)
- `convex-dashboard` - Admin dashboard (port 6791)
**Network:** Uses `nginx-bridge` network (configurable in `compose.yml`).
### Production Checklist
- [ ] Update environment variables in `docker/.env`
- [ ] Generate `CONVEX_SELF_HOSTED_ADMIN_KEY`
- [ ] Configure reverse proxy (Nginx/Traefik)
- [ ] Set up SSL certificates
- [ ] Sync auth environment variables to Convex
- [ ] Configure backup strategy for `docker/data/`
- [ ] Test authentication flow
- [ ] Enable Sentry error tracking

## Troubleshooting
### Backend typecheck shows help message
This is expected behavior. The backend package follows Convex's structure with only `convex/tsconfig.json` (no root tsconfig). See [AGENTS.md](./AGENTS.md) for details.
### Imports from Convex require .js extension
The project uses ESM (`"type": "module"`), requiring explicit file extensions:
```typescript
// ✅ Correct
// ❌ Wrong
import { api } from '@gib/backend/convex/_generated/api';
import { api } from '@gib/backend/convex/_generated/api.js';
```
### Docker containers won't start
1. Check Docker logs: `docker compose logs`
2. Verify environment variables in `docker/.env`
3. Ensure ports 3210 and 6791 are available
4. Check network configuration (`nginx-bridge`)
