Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill
What it does
This skill provides best practices for working with Supabase and PostgreSQL, including schema design, query optimization, security configurations, and integration patterns. It helps developers build efficient, secure, and scalable database systems using Supabase's PostgreSQL backend.
When to use it
- Designing a new Supabase project from scratch
- Optimizing slow or inefficient queries in an existing Supabase setup
- Implementing row-level security policies for user data isolation
- Preparing a PostgreSQL schema for real-time features like subscriptions and triggers
Key capabilities
- Schema design recommendations for Supabase projects
- Query optimization techniques for PostgreSQL
- Security best practices, including role-based access control and row-level security
- Integration with Supabase-specific tools like Realtime, Storage, and Auth
Example prompts
- "How do I optimize a slow PostgreSQL query in Supabase?"
- "What are the best practices for setting up row-level security in Supabase?"
- "Can you provide an example of a well-designed schema for a Supabase project?"
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure your PostgreSQL version is compatible with Supabase's supported versions.
- Always test query performance in a staging environment before deploying to production.
