Lovable Integration Skill

When to Use This Skill

• User mentions "Lovable" or "lovable.dev"
• Project has

  supabase/

  directory with Edge Functions
• User asks to deploy edge functions
• User creates database migrations
• User asks about Lovable Cloud or backend deployment
• Project appears to be a Lovable project (React + Supabase structure)

Core Concept

main

• Frontend code syncs automatically
• Backend operations (Edge Functions, migrations, RLS) require Lovable prompts

What Syncs Automatically (GitHub → Lovable)

main

• src/

  - All React components, pages, hooks, utils

• public/

  - Static assets
• Config files - vite.config.ts, tailwind.config.js, tsconfig.json

• package.json

  - Dependencies

• supabase/functions/*/index.ts

  - Edge Function code (not deployment)

• supabase/migrations/*.sql

  - Migration files (not application)

What Requires Lovable Deployment

"Deploy the [name] edge function"

"Deploy all edge functions"

"Apply pending Supabase migrations"

"Create a [name] table with columns: [list]"

"Enable RLS on [table] allowing [who] to [what]"

"Create a [public/private] bucket called [name]"

Response Format

📋 **LOVABLE PROMPT:**
> "[exact prompt to copy-paste]"

Backend Types

Lovable Cloud

• Backend managed entirely by Lovable
• No Supabase dashboard access
• All operations via Lovable prompts
• Secrets in Cloud → Secrets UI

Own Supabase

• Direct Supabase dashboard access
• Can use Supabase CLI:

  supabase functions deploy

• More flexibility but manual setup

Quick Prompts Reference

Edge Functions

"Deploy all edge functions"
"Deploy the send-email edge function"
"Create an edge function called [name] that [description]"
"Show logs for [name] edge function"
"The [name] edge function returns [error]. Fix it"

Database

"Create a [name] table with columns: id (uuid), name (text), created_at (timestamp)"
"Add a [column] column of type [type] to [table]"
"Add foreign key from [table1].[col] to [table2].id"
"Apply pending Supabase migrations"

RLS Policies

"Enable RLS on [table]"
"Add RLS policy on [table] allowing authenticated users to read all rows"
"Add RLS policy on [table] allowing users to only access their own rows"

Storage

"Create a public storage bucket called [name]"
"Create a private storage bucket called [name]"
"Allow authenticated users to upload to [bucket]"

Auth

"Enable Google authentication"
"Enable GitHub authentication"
"When user signs up, create row in profiles table"

Branch Rules

• Only

  main

  syncs with Lovable
• Feature branches don't deploy until merged
• Lovable syncs within 1-2 minutes of push

Yolo Mode - Automated Deployments (Beta)

yolo_mode: on

How It Works

/skills/yolo/SKILL.md

1. Automatically navigates to Lovable.dev
2. Submits deployment prompts
3. Monitors for success/failure
4. Runs verification tests (if enabled)
5. Reports deployment summary

When Yolo Mode Activates

• During

  /lovable:deploy-edge

  command
• During

  /lovable:apply-migration

  command
• When

  yolo_mode: on

  in CLAUDE.md

Configure Yolo Mode

/lovable:yolo on               # Enable with testing
/lovable:yolo on --no-testing  # Enable without testing
/lovable:yolo on --debug       # Enable with verbose logs
/lovable:yolo off              # Disable

Beta Status

• Requires Claude in Chrome extension
• May have bugs or UI compatibility issues
• Always has manual fallback
• See

  /skills/yolo/SKILL.md

Debugging Checklist

1. Frontend not updating?
   • On

     main

     branch?

   • Wait 1-2 min
2. Edge Function not working?
   • Deployed via Lovable (or yolo mode)?
   • Secrets set in Cloud UI?
   • Check logs in Lovable
3. Database query failing?
   • Migration applied (via Lovable or yolo mode)?
   • RLS policies correct?
   • Table exists?
4. Yolo mode not working?
   • Check

     yolo_mode: on

     in CLAUDE.md
   • Chrome extension installed?
