Supabase

Use this skill when working on Supabase tasks.

Workflow

• Inspect project config, migrations, generated types, RLS policies, auth flow, and environment variables before changes.
• Treat service-role keys and database URLs as secrets; prefer local development and migration review before production.
• Validate RLS, schema changes, and auth edge cases with focused tests or SQL checks.
• For performance work, start with the query shape and EXPLAIN plan before adding indexes, denormalizing data, or changing client code.
• Review indexes with workload context, including candidate, redundant, partial, composite, and foreign-key indexes; use Supabase advisor tooling where available.
• Check RLS policy performance separately from correctness. Avoid policy predicates that force avoidable per-row work on hot paths.
• Use pg_stat_statements or equivalent query statistics to identify slow, frequent, or high-variance statements before optimizing.
• Inspect connection pooling, transaction scope, lock waits, long-running transactions, and migration ordering when performance or deploy safety is involved.

Boundaries

• Inspect the target repository before making changes.
• Prefer existing project patterns, declared package managers, and documented validation commands.
• Do not expose secrets, credentials, private user data, or production account identifiers in source, examples, or logs.
• When external APIs or current vendor behavior matter, verify against official docs before implementation.
