AI Tools

Supabase provides everything you need to connect an AI coding agent to your project: a live connection to your database and platform (MCP), portable instructions your agent can reuse (Agent Skills), a one-step bundle of both (Plugin), and copy-paste prompts for tools that don't support any of the above.

Key concepts

• MCP (Model Context Protocol): a live connection between your agent and your actual Supabase project. Once connected, your agent can call tools to query data, run migrations, deploy Edge Functions, and more.
• Agent Skills: portable, on-demand instructions your agent loads when it needs Supabase- or Postgres-specific procedural knowledge. Skills don't require a live connection, and work across different agents.
• Plugin: a single install that bundles the MCP server and Agent Skills together for a specific agent.
• Prompts: static prompt files you copy into your project for agents that don't support MCP, plugins, or skills natively.
