description: "Teams with production apps often learn about problems from users, then dig through logs and reports. Supabase released tools that let coding agents check production projects for error spikes, security issues, slow queries, and resource growth on a schedule. Agent prompts report each new or worsened finding with the measured value and a next step, using thresholds from public detection checks that teams can override. Other new tools include a query_logs MCP tool for read-only SQL on logs, updated agent skills that fetch current observability docs, a Health Check Advisors tab, and a Database Connections page. Agents can be run on demand or scheduled as Claude routines, Codex tasks, or Cursor automations, and clean runs report nothing."

**Type:** Announcement

## Summary

Teams with production apps often learn about problems from users, then dig through logs and reports. Supabase released tools that let coding agents check production projects for error spikes, security issues, slow queries, and resource growth on a schedule. Agent prompts report each new or worsened finding with the measured value and a next step, using thresholds from public detection checks that teams can override. Other new tools include a query\_logs MCP tool for read-only SQL on logs, updated agent skills that fetch current observability docs, a Health Check Advisors tab, and a Database Connections page. Agents can be run on demand or scheduled as Claude routines, Codex tasks, or Cursor automations, and clean runs report nothing.

## Context

At Supabase Select, the company shared its goal of a coding agent that helps build and operate Supabase projects. They released tools that give the agent more data and knowledge, allowing it to check production projects for issues.

## Approach / What changed

Supabase released Agent prompts that tell coding agents what to check and when to report findings, with thresholds from public detection checks that can be overridden. They also released a query\_logs MCP tool for read-only SQL on logs, updated agent skills that direct agents to fetch current observability docs before diagnosing errors, a Health Check Advisors tab in the dashboard, and a Database Connections page for managing sessions. Agents can be run on demand or scheduled.

## Takeaways

- Agent prompts check health (hourly), security (daily), performance (hourly), and resources (daily), reporting new or worsened findings with measured values and thresholds that can be overridden.
- The query\_logs MCP tool runs read-only SQL against a project’s logs, up to 24 hours per request, and can aggregate and join across log fields.
- The updated supabase agent skill directs agents to fetch current Supabase observability docs before diagnosing errors, rather than relying on memory.

## FAQ

### How do I set up a scheduled check?

Connect the Supabase MCP server read-only scoped to one project, copy an Agent prompt, run it once to verify, then schedule it via Claude routine, Codex scheduled task, or Cursor automation. Pre-approve only the read-only tools the prompt needs.

### What does a Health finding report?

A Health finding reports the measured value against the threshold, such as API server errors passing 1% and doubling from the previous hour, and names the log source and hour to investigate.

### How can I send reports elsewhere?

Add a destination to the prompt, such as a Linear issue. For example, for an error-rate finding, you can open the Health tab in Advisors.
