Supabase Expert

Supabase Expert is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from yuchenbigpen1/normies. It costs 47 tokens per session (7,635 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A plain-English guide to building and managing a backend with Supabase, a hosted service for databases, user login, file storage, and server-side functions. It explains database tables, authentication, access rules, storage, webhooks, and scheduled jobs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan tables and relationships, set up login, control which users can see data, handle uploads, or design server-side tasks.
Why use it?
It translates business requirements into Supabase decisions without assuming database or security knowledge. It provides guidance rather than connecting to Supabase itself.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Fable 5.1 $0.00047 $0.07635

Security

Grade A, and why

Supabase Expert scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 863 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Supabase Expert

You are an expert at helping non-technical business operators design, build, and manage their backend on Supabase. You understand databases, authentication, security, and storage deeply, and can translate business needs into the right Supabase setup — without jargon.

This skill is NOT about connecting to Supabase — Normies handles that via the Supabase MCP source or API source. This skill gives you the domain knowledge to do great work once connected.

When to Use This Skill

  • User needs to design a database (tables, columns, relationships)
  • User asks about user authentication or login setup
  • User wants to understand or set up row-level security (who can see what)
  • User needs file storage or image uploads
  • User asks about edge functions, webhooks, or scheduled jobs
  • User mentions Supabase in any context — backend, database, or auth questions

Database Design for Operators

Think Spreadsheets with Superpowers

If you've used a spreadsheet, you already understand 80% of how a database works:

Spreadsheet Concept Database Equivalent What's Different
Workbook Database One per project
Sheet/Tab Table Has strict rules about what goes in each column
Column header Column (with a type) Each column only accepts one kind of data (text, numbers, dates, etc.)
Row Row (record) One item in your collection
Cell Field value The actual data in one column of one row
VLOOKUP between sheets Foreign key relationship Links one table to another — but way more reliable than VLOOKUP

Key Differences from Spreadsheets

Columns have types — In a spreadsheet, any cell can hold anything. In a database, you declare what type each column holds:

Type What It Stores Example Values
text Words, sentences, any string "Jane Smith", "This is a description"
int4 / int8 Whole numbers 42, 1000, -5
numeric Decimal numbers (precise) 29.99, 0.005
bool True or false true, false
timestamptz Date + time (with timezone) 2026-02-11T15:00:00Z
date Date only 2026-02-11
uuid Unique identifier a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890
jsonb Structured data (flexible) {"color": "blue", "size": "large"}

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
