supabase
Supabase's official, comprehensive skill covering Database, Auth, Edge Functions, Realtime, Storage, Vectors, Cron, and Queues, plus client-library and SSR integration.
What it actually does
- Comprehensive Supabase development skill covering every core product: Database, Auth, Edge Functions, Realtime, Storage, Vectors, Cron, and Queues.
- Covers client libraries and SSR integrations (
supabase-js,@supabase/ssr) across Next.js, React, SvelteKit, Astro, and Remix, plus troubleshooting auth (sessions, JWTs, cookies, RLS) and using the Supabase CLI or MCP server.
When to use it — and when not to
Use it when
- Building or debugging any part of a Supabase-backed app — auth, schema, edge functions, or client integration.
Not for
- You only need Postgres performance guidance —
supabase-postgres-best-practicesis the narrower, purpose-built entry for that.
The caveat that matters
Codex isn't named in Supabase's own compatibility list ("Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Cline, and many others") — that's a real omission, not an oversight on our part.
Agent compatibility
- Claude Code
- Cursor
Supabase's README names Cursor explicitly among "18+ AI agents" it's compatible with, distributed via the open Agent Skills format rather than a Cursor-specific mechanism.
Confirmed means the skill’s own source or vendor states it works with that agent. Portable means it only reaches that agent through the shared SKILL.md format and a directory convention — real, but a weaker claim. An agent with no entry here isn’t known to be unsupported; it simply isn’t documented either way, so nothing is claimed. Full model on Agent Skills Compatibility.
Requirements and operational surface
Depends on
- A Supabase project
- Optionally the Supabase CLI or Supabase MCP server
