supabase/agent-skills

When to use

• Install Supabase skill packs for Claude/Codex/Copilot/Cursor style agents
• Select only specific Supabase skills instead of bulk install
• Verify that skill installation succeeded before relying on generated code
• Route to direct SQL/CLI checks when skill loading is unavailable

Instructions

Step 1: Verify prerequisites

• Confirm Node.js and npm/npx are available.
• Confirm project actually uses Supabase/Postgres before installing extra skills.

node -v
npm -v

Step 2: Install skill package

# Install all Supabase skills
npx skills add supabase/agent-skills

# Install specific skill only
npx skills add supabase/agent-skills --skill supabase
npx skills add supabase/agent-skills --skill supabase-postgres-best-practices

Step 3: Optional Claude plugin path

claude plugin marketplace add supabase/agent-skills
claude plugin install supabase@supabase-agent-skills

Step 4: Verify and smoke test

• Confirm installed skill list includes Supabase entries.
• Run one bounded task (schema introspection or query review) and inspect output quality.
• If results are weak, fall back to direct commands and SQL inspection.

Step 5: Fallback strategy

• Use direct Supabase CLI and SQL workflow.
• Keep migration/review steps explicit; do not rely on hidden agent assumptions.

Guardrails

• Do not run destructive SQL/migrations without explicit confirmation.
• Prefer read-only verification first (

  SELECT

  , schema introspection, dry-run if available).
• Keep credentials in environment/secret manager; never hardcode tokens in repo files.
