Configure Supabase MCP with OAuth authentication |
Source: supabase-community/supabase-mcp
Configure the official Supabase MCP server with OAuth.
Read the MCP configuration from ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/.mcp.json.
Check if Supabase is configured:
- If
supabase.urlcontainsREPLACE_WITH_PROJECT_REF, it needs configuration - If it contains an actual project reference, already configured
Report status:
- "Supabase MCP is not configured - needs project reference"
- OR "Supabase MCP is configured with project: PROJECT_REF"
Tell the user:
To configure Supabase MCP, you need your Supabase project reference.
Quick steps:
1. Go to supabase.com/dashboard
2. Select your project
3. Go to Project Settings > General
4. Copy the "Reference ID" (looks like: abcdefghijklmnop)
The MCP uses OAuth - you'll authenticate via browser when first connecting.
Use AskUserQuestion:
- question: "Do you have your Supabase project reference ready?"
- header: "Project Ref"
- options:
- label: "Yes, I have it" description: "I have my Supabase project reference ready"
- label: "No, skip for now" description: "I'll configure it later"
If user selects "No, skip for now":
- Tell them they can run
/supabase-tools:setupagain when ready - Remind them they can disable Supabase MCP via
/mcpif not needed - Exit
If user selects "Yes" or provides reference via "Other":
- If they provided reference in "Other" response, use that
- Otherwise, ask them to paste the project reference
Validate the provided reference:
- Must be alphanumeric
- Should be 16-24 characters
If invalid:
- Show error: "Invalid project reference format"
- Ask if they want to try again or skip
- Read current
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/.mcp.json - Create backup at
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/.mcp.json.backup - Replace
REPLACE_WITH_PROJECT_REFwith the actual project reference in the URL - Write updated configuration back to
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/.mcp.json
Tell the user:
Supabase MCP configured successfully!
IMPORTANT: Restart Claude Code for changes to take effect.
- Exit Claude Code
- Run `claude` again
On first use, you'll be prompted to authenticate via browser (OAuth).
To verify after restart, run /mcp and check that 'supabase' server is connected.
