Using Postgres Hooks to allow regular users to create event triggers

MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. It standardizes how Large Language Models (LLMs) talk to platforms like Supabase.
An official Supabase MCP server has been launched. You can use this server to connect your favorite AI tools (such as Cursor or Claude) directly with Supabase.
Our MCP server connects your AI tools to Supabase so that they can perform tasks like launching databases, managing tables, fetching config, and querying data on your behalf.
MCP servers use Tools, which are a bit like "abilities". There are over 20 tools available in the Supabase MCP server.
You can:
For a full list of abilities, see Tools in the project README.
Configuration example for .cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"supabase": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@supabase/mcp-server-supabase@latest",
"--access-token",
"<personal-access-token>"
]
}
}
}You'll need to create a personal access token (PAT) for the <personal-access-token> field. This token authenticates the MCP server with your Supabase account.
Some clients expect a slightly modified JSON format, and Windows users will have to prefix this command with cmd /c. For detailed step-by-step instructions for each client and OS, see the MCP documentation.
Most large language models (LLMs) today support "tool calling" where the model can choose to invoke a developer-provided tool based on the context of the conversation. MCP standardizes the tool ecosystem by creating a protocol understood by both clients (eg. Cursor) and tool providers (eg. Supabase), while decoupling them from each other.
MCP also incorporates optional primitives beyond tool calling: resources and prompts. Resources allow servers to expose arbitrary data and content that can be read by clients and used as context for LLMs. Prompts allow servers to define reusable prompt templates that clients can surface to users and LLMs.
Supabase Edge Functions allow you to run custom, server side code from the edge network. The ability to create and deploy Edge Functions directly from your favorite AI assistant is on the roadmap.
The latest revision of the MCP spec now includes official authorization support. Future versions will allow you to authenticate with Supabase using a standard OAuth 2 login flow, eliminating the need to manually create a personal access token.
Currently the MCP server provides a single list_tables tool. Future improvements will provide better structured access to other database objects like views, triggers, functions, and policies.
Additional protections like auto-detecting destructive operations and requiring confirmation before executing them are planned, leveraging Supabase's database branching capability.

Route your Data API (PostgREST) requests to the nearest Read Replica

Here are the top 10 launches from the past week.
It was very hard to rank them, they're all #1s in my book, so I may or may not have enlisted AI to rank them for me. Speaking of AI, make sure to check out #5 and #10.
You can now create, test, edit, and deploy Edge Functions directly from the Supabase Dashboard without having to spin up the CLI and Docker. We've also included templates for common use cases like uploading files to Supabase Storage, OpenAI proxying, and Stripe WebHooks.
We're extended Realtime Broadcast to enable sending messages from database triggers to give you better control over the database change payload while making sure that the workflow is secure and scalable.
You can now route your Data API (PostgREST) requests to the nearest Read Replica to minimize network latency. This is available today as the default for all load balancer endpoints.
Building in a weekend becomes much easier with our official UI Library - a collection of ready-to-use components built on top of shadcn/ui and integrated with Supabase products like Auth, Storage, and Realtime.
We're launching an official MCP server so you can connect your favorite AI tools, like Claude and Cursor, with Supabase and perform tasks such as creating projects, fetching project configuration, querying data using SQL queries, and so much more.
We're simplifying database management with declarative schemas - version-controlled, source of truth for your database structure in the form of .sql files. This reduces errors, maintains consistency across environments, and increases development velocity.
We've been working with the Clerk team to make Clerk a Supabase Third-party Auth integration. This means that users can seamlessly connect Clerk and interact with Supabase and its Data API, Storage, Realtime and Edge Functions services without having to migrate auth providers.
Supabase contributors have officially launched a Language Server Protocol (LSP) implementation for Postgres to make SQL tooling more reliable and easier to use. The initial release includes autocompletion, syntax error highlighting, type-checking, and a linter and it's available today as a VSCode extension and npm package.
We're launching a Postgres connection pooler that's co-located with your database via pgBouncer for better performance and reliability. This is only available on paid plans and gives you three options to connect to your database: direct connections, shared pooler via Supavisor, and dedicated pooler via pgBouncer.
Supabase has become the default backend for AI Builders like Lovable, Bolt, and Tempo. We are easy to integrate with, we have all the primitives to build full-stack apps, and we can scale when those apps take off.
We invite more AI Builders to come and integrate with us so their users can build in a weekend and scale to millions.
Make sure you get your submissions in for the hackathon by April 6 at 11:59 PM PT.
