supabase-agent-skills
Use this skill when the task involves enabling Supabase workflows for AI agents using the open-source supabase/agent-skills package.
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
Use one of these paths:
# 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
If using Claude plugin workflow:
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
When agent skill loading is unavailable:
- 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.
