supabase-prod-checklist skill

Overview

This skill executes a Supabase production deployment checklist and coordinates rollback procedures to ensure safe go-live. It codifies staging validation, secret management, deployment gate checks, monitoring activation, and documented rollback steps. Use it to reduce deployment risk and standardize launch outcomes for Supabase-backed apps.

How this skill works

The skill inspects pre-deployment prerequisites (staging verification, production API keys, pipeline readiness) and runs a sequence of health and smoke checks after deployment. It validates monitoring and alerting, confirms data and auth flows, and produces a concise deployment report. If critical failures are detected, it guides and documents an immediate rollback procedure and post-rollback verification.

When to use it

• Preparing to push Supabase changes from staging to production
• Running final go-live checks before a product launch
• Validating production API keys, secrets, and pipeline configuration
• Activating monitoring and alerting for a new Supabase integration
• Executing an emergency rollback after a failed deployment

Best practices

• Complete a full staging test cycle and record results before production
• Store and rotate production API keys in a secure secrets manager
• Ensure CI/CD pipeline has immutable build artifacts and version tags
• Enable end-to-end monitoring and set practical alert thresholds
• Document rollback steps and test them periodically in a sandbox

Example use cases

• Run the checklist as a pre-launch gate when promoting a staging branch to main
• Validate authentication and row-level security after migrating schemas
• Confirm real-time subscriptions and storage access work under production load
• Trigger rollback guidance when a deployment causes API errors or data regressions
• Prep a deployment report to share with stakeholders after go-live
