Chef adding to existing projects
Is there the opportunity in the future that Chef would be able to look at existing convex projects and add updates to them? I know cursor/claude can rip as well but figured it would be nice to be able to open chef, ask for alterations, maybe even test them, then run convex dev, it would pick up changes and update my existing convex project in my local setup

Re importing projects back into Chef, maybe? But I don't think it's a great fit: Chef can make assumptions about projects because they all start from the same template, but once you're out it's just arbitrary code again, at which point yeah cursor/claude is better-suited. But I could imagine CLI tools that incorporate LLM agents to help with refactors. Generally we like syntax transforms for this (deterministic! testable! fast! no network connection required!) but maybe the CLI is in a good position to provide the right context.
Right now though I'd rather the CLI pump out context into one of these other tools.
open chef, ask for alterations, maybe even test them, then run convex dev, it would pick up changes and update my existing convex project in my local setupThat is a cool flow, hm A version of Chef that mostly modified COnvex functions would be interesting! Probably need GitHub sync etc. first
Cool. I was just attempting to be a chef and thought about referencing other convex projects in a chef session.
Again, idk the full practicality outside of if I’ve made a project that could service as a template of sorts and could reference it
