Publish To Production - NowStack Mobile

• Convex production deployment and env verification.
• web-app/ production build/deploy preparation.
• Runtime-secret placement between Convex, web public env, and mobile public env.
• Handoff to ns-ios-deploy-app, ns-deploy-android-app, and ns-generate-store-screenshots.

This skill does not submit App Store or Google Play builds directly. Use the dedicated store skills for that.

git status --short --branch
git remote -v
npx convex --version
npx convex env list --prod || true
cd web-app && npm run typecheck
cd web-app && npm run build
cd mobile-app && npx tsc --noEmit

Read:

• site-config.ts
• convex/http.ts
• convex/auth.ts
• convex/storage/
• web-app/package.json
• mobile-app/package.json
• .agents/rules/auth-payments-storage.md
• .agents/rules/store-release.md

<env_rules>

• Convex backend secrets stay in Convex env.
• Do not commit .env, .env.local, .env.production, store keys, App Store .p8, Google service account JSON, Stripe secrets, or R2 secrets.
• Web/mobile public env values may exist locally for builds only when they are non-secret and required by the framework.
• iOS production payments use Apple IAP. Do not route iOS production checkout through Stripe.
• Android/web Stripe server logic belongs in Convex. </env_rules>

<web_deploy> Web deploy is owned by the ns-web-deploy skill — run it; do not duplicate its steps here. It covers the full one-shot flow: the mandatory nitro Vite plugin (without it Vercel ships a SPA and every route 404s), web-app/vercel.json running convex deploy so the backend ships with the frontend, npm run setup:vercel (deploy key + Root Directory = web-app), and deploying from the repo root with --archive=tgz or a push to main.

Non-negotiables to assert before declaring the web surface done:

• npm run check-setup passes the "web-app/vercel.json" AND "web-app nitro plugin" checks.
• CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY (Production) is set so the backend never drifts behind the frontend.
• The build log shows convex deploy running AND Generated .vercel/output/nitro.json.
• Every public route (/, /privacy, /cgv, /support) returns 200, not 404 — a SPA-404 regression only surfaces on the live routes, not in the build.

See ns-web-deploy and docs/production-checklist.md stage 2 for the step-by-step. </web_deploy>

<mobile_handoff> Before declaring production complete:

• Run ns-generate-store-screenshots if store screenshots are missing or stale.
• Use ns-ios-deploy-app for TestFlight/App Store Connect (asc workflow).
• Use ns-deploy-android-app for Google Play (gpc workflow).
• Verify production Convex URLs and public app URLs match site-config.ts. </mobile_handoff>

<success_criteria>

• Convex prod env is present and verified.
• web-app typecheck/build pass.
• Mobile TypeScript passes when mobile config/env changed.
• Store-release work is either completed through dedicated skills or explicitly listed as remaining.
• No production secret is written to git-tracked files. </success_criteria>
