What is Supabase?

Supabase is closing its most-exploited default: tables stop being public unless you say so.

The last month is dominated by tightening defaults rather than adding surface. New tables in the public schema will no longer be auto-exposed to the Data and GraphQL APIs, pg_graphql stops being enabled by default, and the OAuth token endpoint is being corrected to return 200 per OAuth 2.1. Alongside that, custom OAuth/OIDC providers landed for Auth and an RLS Tester entered preview.

What is Statsig?

Statsig is packaging its own workflows as skills for someone else's agent to run.

Statsig's experimentation and feature-flag platform opened a public agent-skills repository holding reusable workflows — create dashboard, create cloud metric — written as instructions an AI agent can execute. Its MCP server extended to Segments and Layers, covering user targeting and experiment configuration, and Metrics Explorer gained the ability to abort long-running queries. The crawled feed captures marketing pages as entries, so several rows carry navigation boilerplate rather than release notes.

Supabase is closing its most-exploited default: tables stop being public unless you say so.

◆ Current state

The last month is dominated by tightening defaults rather than adding surface. New tables in the public schema will no longer be auto-exposed to the Data and GraphQL APIs, pg_graphql stops being enabled by default, and the OAuth token endpoint is being corrected to return 200 per OAuth 2.1. Alongside that, custom OAuth/OIDC providers landed for Auth and an RLS Tester entered preview.

◆ Where it's heading

Supabase is paying down the security cost of its own convenience. Auto-exposing every public-schema table made the product fast to start with and easy to misconfigure; the fix is explicit Postgres grants, staged over six months from new projects in April to all existing projects on October 30. The RLS Tester is the same theme from the other side — the auto-exposure default only worked if row-level security was correct, and until now there was no way to check.

◆ Prediction

Expect the remaining rollout dates to hold and more of the developer experience to be rebuilt around explicit grants, with the RLS Tester graduating from preview as it becomes the tool people need to verify the new model. The October cutover for existing projects is the moment where this stops being an announcement and starts breaking things.

Statsig is packaging its own workflows as skills for someone else's agent to run.

◆ Current state

Statsig's experimentation and feature-flag platform opened a public agent-skills repository holding reusable workflows — create dashboard, create cloud metric — written as instructions an AI agent can execute. Its MCP server extended to Segments and Layers, covering user targeting and experiment configuration, and Metrics Explorer gained the ability to abort long-running queries. The crawled feed captures marketing pages as entries, so several rows carry navigation boilerplate rather than release notes.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is agent-operated experimentation. MCP covering segments and layers means an agent can configure targeting, and the skills repository means the multi-step workflows around that configuration are distributable artifacts rather than documentation. Statsig is betting the console is not where experiments get set up much longer.

◆ Prediction

Expect the skills catalog to grow toward the analysis side — reading experiment results and proposing rollout decisions, not just creating objects. The query-abort work suggests warehouse cost control is a live concern as agent-driven usage increases.
