Conversation
Framework-agnostic Supabase security rule: RLS on every table, policies scoped to the user, explicit grants (including the Oct 30 2026 Data API change), and keeping the service_role key out of the browser. Added to the Security section.

- Line 17: Update the rollout wording in the “Grant access explicitly” rule to
say the change starts on October 30, 2026, rather than implying it has already
taken effect.
- Around line 11-14: Update the RLS guidance around the operation policies and
`using (true)` restrictions to permit `USING (true)` only for intentionally
public rows and operations, while clarifying that `WITH CHECK (true)` permits
unrestricted writes but does not expose existing rows. Revise the verification
guidance so private tables return no rows without login and public tables expose
only intended public rows.

Allow an explicit policy for intentionally public reads.
These requirements make an intentionally public table impossible to read without login: every policy must be user-scoped, using (true) is prohibited, and verification expects every table to return no rows. This conflicts with the guidance to grant anon access to genuinely public data. Supabase documents USING (true) for public reads. (supabase.com)
Add an exception for intentionally public rows. Also distinguish WITH CHECK (true), which permits matching inserts or updates but does not expose existing rows.

-- Use `using (true)` or `with check (true)` on a table a client role can reach. RLS is "on" but every row is exposed.

Use future-tense wording for the rollout.
As of October 18, 2026, October 30 is still in the future. Supabase says the change will apply to all existing projects starting October 30, 2026. Replace “Since” with “Starting” so the rule is accurate before the rollout. (supabase.com)

Adds a framework-agnostic Supabase security rule to the Security section.
It encodes the pattern that keeps Row Level Security correct and the
service_rolekey out of the browser: enable RLS + a per-operation policy scoped toauth.uid()+ explicit grants in the same migration, never shipservice_roleto the browser, nousing (true)on client-reachable tables, and don't fix a42501with a blanketgrant ... on all tables. Includes the Oct 30 2026 Data API grants change.rules/supabase-rls-security-cursorrules-prompt-file.mdcwith the required frontmatter (description,globs,alwaysApply: false).Original work, neutral and practical.
