Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

A futuristic MCP client docking bay
V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Automate a task

Put Supabase to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Supabase works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Supabase to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 14 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Supabase, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Supabase. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ

Questions Supabase owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I connect this MCP to my workflow?

    Subscribe to the MCP on Vinkius and enter your Supabase Personal Access Token. Once connected, you can use it immediately in any MCP-compatible client.

  • 02

    Is my data safe when I pause a project?

    Yes. Pausing a project stops compute resources and prevents costs, but your database and all data remain fully preserved.

  • 03

    Can I change Postgres settings through the AI?

    Yes, you can use the update_postgres_config capability to change settings like max_connections or work_mem.

  • 04

    What happens if I delete a secret?

    Deleting a secret is permanent. Once you use the delete_secret capability, the secret cannot be recovered.

  • 05

    Which AI clients can I use with this?

    You can use this MCP with any compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

  • 06

    How do I create a Supabase Personal Access Token?

    Log in to the Supabase Dashboard, go to Account Settings > Access Tokens, click Generate Token, give it a name and copy it immediately. it won't be shown again. The token starts with sbp_.

  • 07

    What happens when I pause a project?

    Pausing a project stops all compute resources (API, Auth, Edge Functions) to reduce costs. Your database and all stored data are preserved. You can restore the project at any time with restore_project and all services will come back online with data intact.

  • 08

    Can I manage environment secrets via the agent?

    Yes! Use list_secrets to see all secret names (values are hidden for security), create_secret to add new ones with name and value, and delete_secret to remove them. You can scope secrets to specific branches using the slug parameter.

  • 09

    Can I update PostgreSQL settings programmatically?

    Yes! Use get_postgres_config to view current settings and update_postgres_config with a JSON object of settings to change (e.g. {"max_connections":200,"work_mem":"16MB"}). Some changes may require a database restart to take effect.
