Comprehensive Supabase CLI skill covering 121 commands across 9 categories (general, database, migrations, edge functions, project management, secrets/storage, auth/SSO, network/domain, and inspect/diagnostics). All flags verified against live documentation at supabase.com/docs/reference/cli. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
…idance Replace 10 exhaustive flag-table reference files (2,500 lines) with 4 focused reference files (760 lines): - workflows-common.md: multi-step workflows with correct order of operations - decision-guide.md: when to use which command (pull vs diff, push vs up, etc.) - gotchas-pitfalls.md: common pitfalls with incorrect/correct examples - commands-overview.md: light listing of all 121 commands by category Agents should use `supabase <command> --help` for exact flag syntax. The skill now focuses on what --help can't tell you. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>

Hi @jorgoose, thank you for suggesting this new skill — we really appreciate the contribution! We’re currently developing a single Supabase skill that includes multiple reference files. Given the overlap between several CLI commands and MCP server tools, it makes sense to include both the CLI and the MCP server within the same set of references. Your suggestion to add decision guides and pitfalls files is a great idea as well. I’ll make sure to incorporate that as part of this PR. Thanks again for the thoughtful feedback! |

New
supabase-cliskill covering 121 commands across 9 categories (general, database, migrations, edge functions, project management, secrets/storage, auth/SSO, network/domain, and inspect/diagnostics). Instead of duplicating flag tables that'll go stale, the skill focuses on workflows, decision guidance, and gotchas. Agents can usesupabase <command> --helpfor exact flag syntax.Would love any feedback on this.
What kind of change does this PR introduce?
New feature — adds a
supabase-cliskill.What is the current behavior?
There's no Supabase CLI skill. Agents don't have a structured reference for CLI workflows, decision-making, or common pitfalls.
What is the new behavior?
Adds a
supabase-cliskill with 4 reference files:workflows-common.md— Multi-step workflows for local dev setup, schema changes, migration lifecycle, edge functions, type generation, branching, and CI/CDdecision-guide.md— When to use which command (db pullvsdb diff,db pushvsmigration up,migration downvsdb reset, targeting flags, diff engines, custom domains vs vanity subdomains,--experimentalrequirements)gotchas-pitfalls.md— 14 common pitfalls with incorrect/correct examples (db resetdestroys data,stopdoesn't free disk space, storage requires--experimental, auth schemas excluded fromdb pull, etc.)commands-overview.md— Light listing of all 121 commands grouped by categoryThe skill points agents to
supabase <command> --helpfor exact flag syntax, so it shouldn't go stale as the CLI changes.Follows the Agent Skills Open Standard.
Additional context
I originally built this with full flag tables for every command (2,500 lines, 10 reference files). Realized that just duplicated
--helpfor the most part and would drift over time. Rewrote it to focus on what--helpcan't tell you — now 760 lines across 4 files and a bit leaner.
