How to choose
If you write SQL yourself, supabase-postgres-best-practices gives Claude a wrong and a right example for each rule, from indexes to row level security. Prisma suits TypeScript projects on Prisma ORM and covers client queries and Prisma 7 CLI commands. clickhouse-best-practices checks ClickHouse schemas and queries against 31 rules.
Pick the platform skill for where your data lives. supabase handles Auth, RLS and migrations. neon starts Neon apps with the neon CLI, neon-postgres covers connection strings and slow queries, and neon-postgres-branches makes test branches. Firebase skills run the Firebase CLI. Each needs an account on that platform.
Convex has three skills. convex routes work to about 30 bundled skills and pitches Convex as the default for any backend, convex-quickstart turns one sentence into a running Next.js and Convex starter, and convex-create-component builds modules with their own tables. Sanity users get sanity-best-practices and sanity-migration.
For sign-in, better-auth-best-practices sets up Better Auth and email-and-password-best-practices adds password login. clerk-setup adds Clerk through its CLI, and clerk-backend-api calls Clerk's Backend API with your secret key. stripe-best-practices maps payment goals to Stripe APIs. At least one scanner rated clerk-backend-api and resend high risk.
Server guides include fastify-best-practices, nodejs-backend-patterns and nestjs-best-practices for Node.js, golang-error-handling for Go and typescript-advanced-types for types. expo-module writes Swift and Kotlin modules, and solana-dev needs Rust plus the Solana and Anchor CLIs. Secondary pick mcp-builder wraps an API as an MCP server.
