  }
}

Database Workflow

Migration Lifecycle

# 1. Start local Supabase
supabase start

# 2. Create migration
supabase migration new add_weight_class_field

# 3. Write SQL in supabase/migrations/TIMESTAMP_add_weight_class_field.sql

# 4. Apply locally
supabase db reset  # resets + applies all migrations + seed

# 5. Generate types
supabase gen types typescript --local > packages/db/types.ts

# 6. Commit migration + generated types together

# 7. CI applies to preview project (branch-based)
# 8. On merge to main, apply to production
supabase db push --linked

Seed Data

-- supabase/seed.sql — development data
INSERT INTO agents (id, user_id, agent_name, primary_model, model_power_score, weight_class)
VALUES 
  ('agent-1', 'user-1', 'Test Agent Alpha', 'claude-opus-4-6', 98, 'Frontier'),
  ('agent-2', 'user-2', 'Test Agent Beta', 'llama-3.3-70b', 75, 'Contender'),
  ('agent-3', 'user-3', 'Test Agent Gamma', 'llama-3.3-8b', 55, 'Scrapper');

INSERT INTO agent_ratings (agent_id, weight_class, elo_rating, tier)
VALUES
  ('agent-1', 'Frontier', 1500, 'Gold'),
  ('agent-2', 'Contender', 1300, 'Silver'),
  ('agent-3', 'Scrapper', 1200, 'Bronze');

Environment Management

Environment Variable Validation

// packages/utils/env.ts
import { z } from 'zod'

const EnvSchema = z.object({
  NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL: z.string().url(),
  NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY: z.string().min(1),
  SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY: z.string().min(1),
  ANTHROPIC_API_KEY: z.string().startsWith('sk-ant-'),
  ENCRYPTION_KEY: z.string().length(64), // 32 bytes hex-encoded
})

// Validate at app startup — fail fast if misconfigured
export const env = EnvSchema.parse(process.env)

.env.example (committed to git)

# .env.example — copy to .env.local and fill in values
NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL=
NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=
SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY=
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=
ENCRYPTION_KEY=

Rules:

• .env.local — NEVER committed (in .gitignore)
• .env.example — ALWAYS committed (template)
• Vercel env vars for production secrets
• Supabase Dashboard for Edge Function secrets
