Building a developer tool with Convex? Let us review it.
Expert code review for developer tools built with Convex. We fix Convex-specific security gaps, optimize performance, and handle deployment. From $19.
Common Convex issues we find
Real problems from Convex codebases we've reviewed.
Missing access control on mutations
Convex mutations without identity checks, allowing any client to create, update, or delete data without authentication.
Overly broad queries
Queries that fetch entire tables without filters, sending massive amounts of data over real-time subscriptions and consuming read bandwidth.
No schema validation
Missing schema.ts definitions, allowing any shape of data to be inserted and causing type mismatches at runtime.
Inefficient reactive queries
Queries that re-execute on unrelated data changes because they scan too broadly, causing unnecessary re-renders in the frontend.
Developer Tool challenges to solve
Key developer tool concerns that AI-generated code often misses.
Error messages and developer experience
Developers expect error messages that tell them exactly what went wrong, why, and how to fix it. AI-generated tools return generic 'Something went wrong' messages or raw stack traces. Good DX means every error is actionable and every edge case has a helpful response.
API design and consistency
Developer tools live or die by their API surface — whether REST endpoints, CLI arguments, or SDK methods. Naming must be consistent, behavior must be predictable, and breaking changes must be versioned. AI tools generate functional but inconsistent APIs that frustrate developers.
Documentation and examples
Developers won't use your tool if they can't figure it out quickly. You need API reference docs, getting-started guides, code examples in multiple languages, and a changelog. AI tools build the tool but not the documentation ecosystem around it.
Performance and latency
Developer tools are often in the critical path of other developers' workflows — slow API responses, laggy CLIs, or unresponsive dashboards directly waste their time. Every millisecond matters. AI-generated tools have unoptimized database queries and no caching.
What we check
Key areas we review for Convex developer tool projects.
API design — consistent naming, predictable behavior, proper status codes
Error handling — actionable error messages for every failure mode
Authentication — API key generation, rotation, scoped permissions
Rate limiting — per-key limits, usage tracking, quota management

Frequently asked questions
Can you review a developer tool built with Convex?
Yes. We regularly audit Convex developer tool projects and understand the specific patterns and pitfalls of this combination. Our review covers security, performance, and deployment readiness.
What issues do you find in Convex developer tools?
Common issues include missing access control on mutations and overly broad queries on the Convex side, combined with developer tool-specific concerns like error messages and developer experience and api design and consistency. We check for all of these and more.
How do I make my Convex developer tool production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a prioritized list of issues. For Convex developer tool projects, the typical path is: fix security gaps, address developer tool-specific requirements, optimize Convex performance, then configure deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
