Without lost of generality, assume $a_0 \neq 0$. One proves that the Cauchy relations $c_n = \sum_{j=0}^n a_j a_{n-j}$ are equivalent to
$$ a_n = \frac{1}{2a_0}\left(c_n - \sum_{j=1}^{n-1} a_j a_{n-j} \right) \, .$$
Multiplying $\sum_n a_n$ by an overall constant if necessary, we can assume that $2a_0 = 1$. It follows that $c_0 = 1/4$ and that $c_1 = a_1$.
Let's consider the case when $c_n = 0$ for $n \ge 2$, so that $\sum_n c_n = 1/4 + c_1$ is convergent. It is easily proved by induction on $n \ge 1$ that there exist positive integers $A_n$ such that $a_n = (-1)^{n-1}A_n c_1^n$. Therefore, whenever $|c_1| \ge 1$, the limit $\lim_{n\to \infty} a_n$ is not $0$ (if it exists at all), and so the series $\sum_n a_n$ diverges.
Remark: In fact, based on John's answer, $A_{n+1} = C_n = \frac{1}{n+1} {2n \choose n}$ is the $n$-th Catalan number; Stirling's approximation allows to estimate $A_{n+1} \sim \frac{4^n}{\sqrt{\pi} n^{1/2}(n+1)}$, so that the above construction works if (and only if) $|c_1| > 1/4$.
