Rls Patterns

RLS Patterns Skill

Purpose

Enforce Row Level Security (RLS) patterns for all database operations. Ensures data isolation and prevents cross-user data access.

When This Skill Applies

• Writing any Prisma database query
• Creating or modifying API routes that access the database
• Implementing webhook handlers
• Working with user data, payments, subscriptions

Critical Rules

NEVER Do This

// ❌ FORBIDDEN - Direct Prisma calls bypass RLS
const user = await prisma.user.findUnique({ where: { user_id } });

ALWAYS Do This

import { withUserContext, withAdminContext, withSystemContext } from "@/lib/rls-context";

// ✅ CORRECT - User context for user operations
const user = await withUserContext(prisma, userId, async (client) => {
  return client.user.findUnique({ where: { user_id: userId } });
});

// ✅ CORRECT - System context for webhooks
await withSystemContext(prisma, "webhook", async (client) => {
  return client.webhook_events.create({ data: eventData });
});

Context Helper Reference

Common Patterns

API Route with User Context

export async function GET() {
  const { userId } = await requireAuth();

  const payments = await withUserContext(prisma, userId, async (client) => {
    return client.payments.findMany({
      where: { user_id: userId },
      orderBy: { created_at: "desc" },
    });
  });

  return NextResponse.json(payments);
}

Admin Pages: Force Dynamic

// REQUIRED for admin pages with RLS
export const dynamic = "force-dynamic";
