File contents

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.
