## What it does

This skill covers browser-side setup of CloudBase Relational Database. You get the canonical sequence: `cloudbase.init({ env: "your-env-id" })`, then `app.auth` for login, then `app.rdb()` for the database client. Queries after that look like `db.from("posts").select("*")`, with `insert`, `update`, `delete` and `.eq()` available.

The rules matter more than the snippet. Init runs synchronously. One `db` client is created and reused, not rebuilt inside every component. Lazy-loading the SDK with `import("@cloudbase/js-sdk")` is discouraged unless your framework forces it. Schema work and privileged administration stay out of browser code.

One thing to check before you install: the skill is marked deprecated. New environments should go to PostgreSQL with `app.rdb()` in the `postgresql-development-cloudbase` skill. MySQL administration, DDL and table security rules belong to `relational-database-mcp-cloudbase`, since provisioning is not offered through MCP. You need `npm install @cloudbase/js-sdk` and an environment id.

## Requirements
- Works with: PostgreSQL, Supabase

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add TencentCloudBase/skills --skill relational-database-web-cloudbase -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/relational-database-web-cloudbase/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/relational-database-web-cloudbase/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add TencentCloudBase/skills --skill relational-database-web-cloudbase -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/relational-database-web-cloudbase/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add TencentCloudBase/skills --skill relational-database-web-cloudbase -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/relational-database-web-cloudbase/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install TencentCloudBase/skills relational-database-web-cloudbase
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/relational-database-web-cloudbase/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add TencentCloudBase/skills --skill relational-database-web-cloudbase -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/TencentCloudBase/skills --path skills/relational-database-web-cloudbase
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/relational-database-web-cloudbase/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add TencentCloudBase/skills --skill relational-database-web-cloudbase -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/TencentCloudBase/skills/tree/HEAD/skills/relational-database-web-cloudbase/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- wire a browser app to CloudBase Relational Database
- share one `db` client instead of initializing per component
- swap a Supabase browser client for CloudBase
- run Supabase-style table queries from the frontend
- keep login and data access as separate steps

## Example prompts
- Initialize CloudBase in the browser with `@cloudbase/js-sdk` and export a shared `db` client from one module
- Rewrite this component to use `db.from("posts").select("*")` instead of a direct fetch
- Replace the Supabase client with CloudBase RDB, keep login on `app.auth`

## Sibling skills (local only)

Sibling CloudBase skills ship beside this skill. Use local relative paths such as `../auth-tool-cloudbase/SKILL.md`.

If a referenced sibling skill file is missing from this environment, ask the user to install the full CloudBase plugin (or the missing skill). Do **not** HTTP-fetch remote skill or protocol markdown into the agent context.

# CloudBase Relational Database Web SDK

## Activation Contract

### Use this first when

- A browser or Web app must access CloudBase Relational Database through `@cloudbase/js-sdk`.
- The task is specifically about frontend initialization and browser-side query usage.

### Read before writing code if

- You need to distinguish browser SDK usage from MCP database management or backend Node access.
- The request mentions Supabase migration, shared frontend DB client, or browser-side table queries.

### Then also read

- MySQL SQL management and MCP operations -> `../relational-database-mcp-cloudbase/SKILL.md`
- Web auth/login -> `../auth-web-cloudbase/SKILL.md`
- General Web app setup -> `../web-development/SKILL.md`

### Do NOT use for

- MCP-based SQL management, schema changes, or permissions management (provisioning is not offered through MCP).
- Backend/Node service access.
- Document database operations.

### Common mistakes / gotchas

- Initializing SDKs in an MCP management flow.
- Treating `app` itself as the relational database client.
- Re-initializing CloudBase in every component.
- Mixing frontend browser access with admin-style schema mutations.

### Minimal checklist

- Confirm the caller is a Web frontend.
- Keep one shared CloudBase app and one shared relational DB client.
