## 🎯 Application Overview
**SupaMCP** bridges the gap between Supabase databases and AI assistants by providing an intuitive web interface for:
1. **Database Discovery** - Automatically analyze Supabase project structure
2. **Security Assessment** - Review RLS policies and identify potential issues
3. **AI Prompt Generation** - Create customized prompts for AI assistants
4. **Configuration Import** - Import and validate AI-generated tool configurations
5. **Browser Testing** - Test MCP tools in real-time without server setup
6. **Production Export** - Generate deployment-ready MCP server configurations

## 🔧 Key Technical Features
### Database Integration
- **Automatic Discovery**: Schema introspection using Supabase metadata
- **Security Analysis**: RLS policy detection and recommendations
- **Real-time Testing**: Live API calls using Supabase JS SDK
- **Error Handling**: Comprehensive error categorization and debugging
### Dynamic Form Generation
- **JSON Schema to React Forms**: Auto-generate forms from tool parameters
- **Type Validation**: Zod integration for runtime type checking
- **Custom Input Components**: Date pickers, dropdowns, array inputs
- **Real-time Validation**: Live parameter validation and error display
### Configuration Management
- **JSON Editor**: Monaco Editor with syntax highlighting and validation
- **Version Control**: Configuration history and change tracking
- **Import/Export**: Multiple export formats for different deployment scenarios
- **Validation Pipeline**: Multi-stage validation with detailed error reporting
### Testing Environment
- **Browser-based Execution**: No server setup required for testing
- **Performance Monitoring**: Response time tracking and analytics
- **Debug Console**: Execution history and error analysis
- **Live Editing**: Edit-test-refine workflow for rapid iteration
## 🎨 UI/UX Design Guidelines
### Visual Design
- **Color Palette**: Supabase green (#3ECF8E) primary, navy (#1E293B) secondary
- **Typography**: Clean, readable fonts with proper hierarchy
- **Icons**: Lucide React icon library for consistency
- **Layout**: Responsive design with mobile-first approach
### User Experience
- **Progressive Disclosure**: Step-by-step workflow with clear navigation
- **Error Prevention**: Extensive validation and helpful error messages
- **Accessibility**: WCAG 2.1 AA compliance with keyboard navigation
- **Performance**: Lazy loading and optimized bundle sizes
### Component Design
- **Atomic Design**: Reusable components with clear responsibilities
- **State Management**: Zustand for global state, React Hook Form for forms
- **Error Boundaries**: Graceful error handling and recovery
- **Loading States**: Skeleton screens and progress indicators
## 🔒 Security Implementation
### Data Protection
- **Client-side Only**: No data leaves the browser except user-initiated AI prompts
- **Credential Security**: Masked inputs with secure storage
- **RLS Awareness**: Clear warnings for tables without Row Level Security
- **Input Sanitization**: XSS prevention and SQL injection protection
### Privacy Considerations
- **No Tracking**: Minimal analytics with user privacy focus
- **Local Storage**: All data stored locally, cleared on session end
- **Secure Defaults**: Most restrictive security settings by default
- **Transparency**: Clear information about data usage and storage
