query
Ejecuta una consulta CVM de solo lectura en la red Convex. Úsalo para leer el estado en cadena, verificar saldos, buscar cuentas o evaluar Convex Lisp…
npx skills add https://github.com/convex-dev/convex --skill queryQuery Convex State
Queries are read-only, free and instant. They never modify state and need no key, so prefer a query over a transaction whenever you only need to read.
Expression: $0
Address (optional): $1 — the account context for the query (e.g. #13)
See the convex-lisp skill for CVM conventions and error codes.
How to Run It
With a Convex MCP server configured (tool names look like
mcp__<server>__query), use its query tool. The server is configured per
user, not by this repository — do not assume it is present.
Otherwise use the CLI, which always works from a built convex.jar:
java -jar convex.jar client query '(balance #13)'
java -jar convex.jar client query --host <host> --port <port> '(balance #13)'
java -jar convex.jar client query -a #13 '*balance*'
-a / --address sets the account context. Against a local network started
with the local-network skill, pass --host localhost --port <PORT>.
Common Queries
| Task | Expression |
|---|---|
| Coin balance | (balance #13) |
| Own balance | *balance* |
| Account info | (account #13) |
| Token balance | (@convex.fungible/balance #TOKEN #USER) |
| Token supply | (@convex.fungible/total-supply #TOKEN) |
| Lookup symbol | (lookup #ADDR 'symbol) |
| Full state | *state* (large!) |
lookup needs a literal symbol as its last argument — it is resolved at
compile time, so a computed symbol fails with :COMPILE.
Present balances in CVM units (e.g. "1.5 CVM", not "1500000000 copper").
