## Description

Explain an existing Convex app, data model + relationships, public vs internal functions, auth/ownership model, components, a request→data flow, read from the schema and function surface. Read-only.

# Explain this Convex app

Before you can safely change an app you have to know what it is, and reading 15 function files top-to-bottom is slow and error-prone. This capability produces the map fast and accurately by reading the two sources that can't lie: the schema (the data model) and the function surface (`functionSpec` / the exported queries/mutations/actions). It is deliberately DESCRIPTIVE, it explains what IS, hands judgment to the audit capabilities and changes to the fixers. It is also the natural first step of an optimize or self-heal session, and the reusable 're-explain the current architecture' that 'change what you built' depends on.
