Point a domain you already own at your Convex app (DNS records, custom-domain attach, auth-origin rebind).

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

5 rules. About 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈4

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  3. Distinctive:

    Verify: the domain serves the app over HTTPS, including the apex → www redirect if configured.

  4. Distinctive:

    Never ask for or handle registrar credentials.

  5. Distinctive:

    Always include the TXT verification record, not just the CNAME.

    line 25

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Set up a custom domain with your own provider

Walk the user's own registrar through pointing their domain at the Convex app: identify the target (hosting or deployment URL), create the DNS records, attach the custom domain, and rebind the auth origin if the app uses auth.

Workflow

  1. Identify the target: the published site host (for *.convex.app static hosting) or the deployment's HTTP actions URL.
  2. Detect an ALREADY-AUTHENTICATED DNS CLI for the user's provider and OFFER to create the records automatically: Cloudflare → flarectl dns create (note: wrangler itself doesn't manage DNS records) or the CF API via their token env; Route53 → aws route53 change-resource-record-sets; Google Cloud DNS → gcloud dns record-sets create; DigitalOcean → doctl compute domain records create; Vercel DNS → vercel dns add. Check auth read-only first (flarectl user info / aws sts get-caller-identity / doctl account get); show the exact commands and get a yes before running.
  3. If no authed CLI (or the user declines), tell the user exactly which records to create at THEIR registrar: the CNAME (or A/ALIAS at the apex) plus the TXT verification record — with concrete host/value strings, not placeholders.
  4. Attach the domain as a Convex custom domain (dashboard or CLI) and wait for verification; note DNS propagation can take minutes to hours. Verify records landed with dig +short.
  5. If the app uses auth (passkeys/OAuth), rebind the auth origin (SITE_URL / RP_ID / ORIGIN env vars) to the new domain and re-deploy/re-publish.
  6. Verify: the domain serves the app over HTTPS, including the apex → www redirect if configured.

Rules

  • Never ask for or handle registrar credentials. A CLI already authenticated on the user's machine is fine — the credential stays in the tool; never install a CLI or run its login/auth flow for this, and never echo tokens.
  • DNS changes on a live domain are user-visible: show the exact commands and confirm before running them; verify afterwards with dig.
  • Always include the TXT verification record, not just the CNAME.
  • Rebinding the domain changes the auth origin — re-publish after, or sign-in breaks.

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
