What can I do with the Supabase MCP server?

You can query and manage Supabase databases, handle authentication, and interact with storage through an MCP interface. It connects via your Supabase API using a personal access token, eliminating the need to write raw API calls.

How do I authenticate with Supabase MCP?

Set the SUPABASE_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable with a personal access token from your Supabase account. This token is required and grants the MCP server permission to interact with your Supabase project.

Is there a cost to use this MCP server?

The MCP server itself is free, but you pay for Supabase usage based on your project's plan (database queries, auth, storage, etc.). Pricing depends on your Supabase tier.

How do I install and run the Supabase MCP server?

Install via npm with `npx @supabase/mcp-server-supabase@0.8.1`. The server runs over HTTP and connects to the hosted endpoint at https://mcp.supabase.com/mcp. Ensure SUPABASE_ACCESS_TOKEN is set before starting.

What are alternatives to Supabase MCP for database automation?

Other options include direct Supabase SDK integration, writing custom API scripts, or using other database MCP servers. Supabase MCP is best if you want conversational database access without code and are already using Supabase.
