Interpretation is structured for decision-making; original keeps the upstream SKILL.md unchanged.

Decide Fit First

Core job: Postgres performance optimization and best practices from Supabase. Use this skill when writing, reviewing, or optimizing Postgr…
Best fit: Use it when the task has reusable inputs, steps, and validation criteria rather than a one-off answer.
Avoid forcing it: If the source lacks commands, platform support, or external-service evidence, keep those fields unknown instead of guessing.

Design Intent

Structure: The skill is organized around “When to Apply”, “Rule Categories by Priority”, “How to Use”, “References”, showing how the author expects the agent to judge fit, collect context, and produce verifiable output.
Trigger evidence: Prioritize the author’s wording around when to use it, what context to collect, and what output shape to produce.
Evidence boundary: Author text states facts, repository files prove commands and paths, and Fluxly only adds fit, limits, and usage judgment.

How To Use It

Inputs: Provide target material, scope, expected result, forbidden changes, and validation method.
Invocation: Name supabase-postgres-best-practices directly; if the source includes slash commands, start with the command and then add task context.
Validation: Start small and check whether the result follows “When to Apply / Rule Categories by Priority / How to Use” before expanding.

Boundaries And Review

Dependencies: It usually needs no extra API key, so start with a small validation task.
Permissions: Declared permissions include read; ask the agent to state file, command, and rollback boundaries before acting.
Quality bar: A useful result names the deliverable, evidence, and next action. Generic prose means the task needs tighter context.

Supabase Postgres Best Practices

Comprehensive performance optimization guide for Postgres, maintained by Supabase. Contains rules across 8 categories, prioritized by impact to guide automated query optimization and schema design.

When to Apply

Reference these guidelines when:

Writing SQL queries or designing schemas
Implementing indexes or query optimization
Reviewing database performance issues
Configuring connection pooling or scaling
Optimizing for Postgres-specific features
Working with Row-Level Security (RLS)

Rule Categories by Priority

Priority	Category	Impact	Prefix
1	Query Performance	CRITICAL	`query-`
2	Connection Management	CRITICAL	`conn-`
3	Security & RLS	CRITICAL	`security-`
4	Schema Design	HIGH	`schema-`
5	Concurrency & Locking	MEDIUM-HIGH	`lock-`
6	Data Access Patterns	MEDIUM	`data-`
7	Monitoring & Diagnostics	LOW-MEDIUM	`monitor-`
8	Advanced Features	LOW	`advanced-`

How to Use

Read individual rule files for detailed explanations and SQL examples:

references/query-missing-indexes.md
references/query-partial-indexes.md
references/_sections.md

Each rule file contains:

Brief explanation of why it matters
Incorrect SQL example with explanation
Correct SQL example with explanation
Optional EXPLAIN output or metrics
Additional context and references
Supabase-specific notes (when applicable)
