## Stack
Draft stack extracted from `docs/monitoring`. Merge bottom-up. The
troubleshooting *catalog* rewrite (`content/troubleshooting` and the
Diagnosing UI) stays out of scope.
1. #49503 move inspect and advisors
2. #49501 split Studio logs from ClickHouse queries
3. #49500 treat reports as signal dashboards
4. #49502 add Observe the data hub
5. #49506 add agent setup components
6. #49504 add hire-an-agent templates
7. **#49505** restructure observability nav, overview, Detecting, and
flatten Observe the data ← **this PR**
## I have read the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
file.
YES
## What kind of change does this PR introduce?
Docs update. Top layer in the observability stack.
## What is the current behavior?
The section is still titled Monitoring and Debugging, with a Debugging /
Monitoring split that does not match the new pages. The debugging guide
is still the master layer-isolation + symptom table. Observe the data is
split into “what data” vs “where to observe it,” which duplicates the
source pages.
## What is the new behavior?
- Section title is Observability
- Overview groups Observe the data, Detect and resolve, Hire an agent,
and Export
- **Observe the data is flattened by source.** Logs, Metrics API,
Database, Advisors, and Reports each list where to read that source.
There is no separate MCP/API/CLI/Studio nav group.
- **Observe vs Detecting:** Observe is the catalog (what exists, how to
access it). Detecting is how to *use* those sources to pick up a Health
/ Security / Performance / Usage signal. Named errors skip to
Diagnosing.
- Studio Logs sits under Logs. Reports sits beside the other sources.
- Troubleshooting stays in the global menu and also appears as
Diagnosing under Detect and resolve
## Additional context
This is the last PR in the stack. Together the seven PRs reconstruct the
`docs/monitoring` observability IA and guide content, without shipping
the troubleshooting catalog overhaul.

## I have read the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
file.
YES
## What kind of change does this PR introduce?
Docs update. First layer in the observability stack.
## What is the current behavior?
Inspect and advisors live under Database (`/guides/database/inspect`,
`/guides/database/database-advisors`). Observability readers have to
leave the monitoring section to find them.
## What is the new behavior?
- Moves inspect into `/guides/monitoring-and-debugging/inspect`
- Adds `/guides/monitoring-and-debugging/advisors` (replaces the
Database Advisors page)
- Adds redirects and updates Studio/docs links so old URLs keep working
- Adds both pages to the existing Monitoring nav so they are
discoverable before the later IA PR
## Additional context
Inspect and advisors pages render as standard MDX. Redirects cover
`/docs/guides/database/inspect`,
`/docs/guides/database/database-advisors`, and
`/docs/guides/database/database-linter`. Debugging-guide content is
unchanged except the inspect URL.
## Self-review
- No leftover `/guides/database/inspect` or
`/guides/database/database-advisors` links in docs guides or Studio
linter/AI surfaces (historical blog posts left as-is)
- Smoke test path updated to
`/docs/guides/monitoring-and-debugging/advisors`

## I have read the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
file.
YES
## What kind of change does this PR introduce?
Bug fix. Complete App configurations produce the same auth options as
before.
## What is the current behavior?
Without the docs GitHub App private key, two things fail for a
contributor:
- `pnpm run embeddings` aborts before doing any work. The lint warnings
source throws, and every source shares one `Promise.all` in
[`fetchAllSources()`](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/apps/docs/scripts/search/sources/index.ts).
- `pnpm --filter docs build` exits 1 in prebuild, so the `npm run build`
pre-flight CONTRIBUTING.md asks for cannot run either:
```
Error: DOCS_GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY environment variable is required
at octokit (apps/docs/lib/octokit.ts:21:13)
at fetchAiSkills (apps/docs/scripts/federated-content/fetch-federated-content.ts:258:36)
```
Both read public content, so this is a rate-limit guard rather than
access control: App auth landed in #43015 because unauthenticated calls
(60 req/hr per IP) went flaky on shared runners.
## What is the new behavior?
`apps/docs/lib/octokit.auth.ts` adds one rung below the App: a token
from `GH_TOKEN`, then `GITHUB_TOKEN` (the precedence [`gh help
environment`](https://cli.github.com/manual/gh_help_environment)
documents), so `export GH_TOKEN=$(gh auth token)` is enough to build
locally. Still authenticated, so #43015's fix holds, and still an
authenticated Octokit client, so #44274 holds.
A partially configured App is now an error naming the missing vars,
rather than falling through to a token.
Used by the lint warnings loader and `lib/octokit.ts`. The two token
vars are declared in `apps/docs/turbo.jsonc` for
`turbo/no-undeclared-env-vars`.
## Additional context
With only `GH_TOKEN` set, `turbo run build --filter=docs --force` passes
4/4 and search-index source loading completes. `pnpm test` passes (20
files, 164 tests), and `tsc --noEmit` plus `pnpm run lint` match
`origin/master`. For a complete App config the auth options are
identical to before. Happy to post the fuller verification as a comment.
<!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai
-->
## Summary by CodeRabbit
- **New Features**
- Added flexible GitHub authentication for documentation services,
supporting GitHub App credentials or personal access tokens.
- GitHub App authentication is preferred when fully configured, with
token-based fallback when unavailable.
- Added support for both `GH_TOKEN` and `GITHUB_TOKEN`, with clear
precedence rules.
- **Bug Fixes**
- Improved configuration validation with clear errors for missing or
incomplete authentication settings.
- Standardized authentication across GitHub content and lint-warning
retrieval.

## What
Routes the **Dart/Flutter v2** reference through the new
reference-content pipeline (`scripts/build-reference-content.ts` +
`spec/reference/dart/v2/`), the same one JavaScript v2 already uses.
Dart v1 stays on the legacy YAML pipeline.
## How
Dart has no upstream TypeDoc dump, so this follows the reference
README's "adapt other formats as a pre-step" approach:
- **`scripts/generate-dart-reference.ts`** converts the committed legacy
spec (`spec/supabase_dart_v2.yml`) plus the shared section tree into a
TypeDoc-shaped dump at `spec/reference/dart/v2/supabase_flutter.json`
(gitignored, like every other dump). Each Dart method becomes a
`variant: 'declaration'` node tagged with `@category`/`@subcategory` and
carries the legacy function shape (description, notes, params, examples)
on a non-TypeDoc `content` field.
- **`build-reference-content.ts`** gains a small, backward-compatible
addition: it spreads a declaration's `content` straight onto the
`functions.json` entry. The renderer then shows params/examples/notes
exactly as the legacy YAML did, with no typeSpec round-trip. The field
is absent for real TypeDoc dumps, so **JavaScript output is unchanged**
(existing JS snapshot still passes).
- `dart-v2` added to `SUPPORTS_NEW_REFERENCE_PROCESS`; the v2 `specFile`
is dropped from the nav entry so the legacy generator skips it.
- Dart search ingest switched to the new-pipeline loader.
- `config.json` + hand-authored partials (intro markdown,
`initializing`, and subcategory overviews like `using-filters`,
`auth-mfa`) added under `spec/reference/dart/v2/partials/`, mirroring
the JS lib.
- The dart dump is regenerated in `codegen:references:new` and in CI; a
self-contained `dart/v2` snapshot test covers the full YAML → dump →
content path.
## Verification
- `vitest run scripts/build-reference-content.test.ts` — both JS and
Dart snapshots pass.
- 112 function sections all resolve to renderable `functions.json`
entries (104 methods + 7 subcategory overviews + `initializing`).
- `tsc --noEmit` clean for all changed files.
- Legacy generator confirmed to skip dart v2 (only `dart.v1.*`
regenerated).
> Note: the live dev server (which needs the Supabase backend) was not
run; verification was done at the data-pipeline level plus parity with
the production JS pipeline behavior.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* Added Dart v2 reference documentation sections, including Installing,
Initializing, Filters, Modifiers, Auth Admin, MFA, Passkeys, File
Buckets, Introduction, and Upgrade guidance.
* Expanded the Dart v2 reference pipeline so Dart API pages are
generated from the newer reference content flow.
* **Bug Fixes**
* Improved Dart reference rendering by preserving legacy descriptions,
notes, params, and examples in generated function entries.
* Updated Dart v2 reference search to use the new pipeline’s generated
content so results and navigation stay in sync.

# Second try of making a new better process for SDK automation
Instead of building a new pipeline. We will take the lessons learned
form round 1, plus the good design and improvement on DX quality for
drop-in file as a single step required from SDK team and produce almost
identical set of files as used right now to render using the current
pipeline.

artifacts and integrating into prebuilds, search ingestion, and
rendering (type-aware examples).
* **Documentation**
* Added comprehensive JavaScript SDK v2 reference content and partials
(Auth MFA, passkeys, admin, TypeScript support, filters, modifiers,
Installing, Initializing, Buckets, etc.).
* **Tests & CI**
* Added regression snapshot test and updated workflows to refresh
reference snapshots and ensure spec downloads.
* **Chores**
* Updated ignore rules, build scripts, Makefile targets, and package
lifecycle hooks.

**troubleshooting.ts** - New source loader that reads local MDX files
from content/troubleshooting/ directly instead of fetching from GitHub
Discussions API
- Generates correct docs paths: /guides/troubleshooting/{slug}
- Uses type = 'troubleshooting' for proper search result mapping
- Sets slug: undefined to avoid trailing # in URLs
- Checksum includes title/topics/keywords so metadata-only changes
trigger re-indexing
- Left comments for review
**index.ts** - Replaced GitHub discussion sources with local
troubleshooting sources

* feat: alternate search index for nimbus
Create an alternate search index for Nimbus that filters out
feature-flagged pages (equivalent to setting all feature flags to
false).
Notes:
- Creates two new DB tables, `page_nimbus` and `page_section_nimbus`,
which are filtered versions of `page` and `page_section`
- Makes `nimbus` versions of all the DB search functions
- Refactored the embedding upload script. Changes to make it faster (got
annoyed by how slow it was when testing...), incorporate retries, and
produce better summary logs.
- Upload script, when run with the environment variable
ENABLED_FEATURES_OVERRIDE_DISABLE_ALL, produces and uploads the
alternate search index
- Changed all the search calls in frontend/API to check for
`isFeatureEnabled('search:fullIndex')` to determine whether to search
the full or alternate index
* ci: produce nimbus search indexes on merge
* fix: turn full search index on
Pages that are disabled in navigation/site rendering are still shown in
llms.txt. This change filters those pages out of the llms.txt build as
well.

* refactor: reading markdown docs files
Refactor how Markdown docs files are read:
- Reuses the same logic across search index generation & page generation
- Improves the indexed content for search:
- Stops removing MDX components, which often contain useful
information like Admonitions
- Denormalizes Partials and CodeSamples for more complete content
This is a prerequisite step for implementing the "Copy docs as Markdown"
functionality.
Only touches regular guides for now, not federated ones.
* fix: tailwind build error (#37728)
We changed to default to ESM imports a while ago, which means local
builds are now breaking because the Tailwind uses a require. Changed to
CJS for Tailwind config file. (I have no idea how this has been working
on Vercel all this time.)
* style: prettier
Implement hybrid search for the /docs/api/graphql searchDocs endpoint. Prepend a more descriptive title and introduction to database advisor docs so they rank more highly when directly searched for.
* docs: add cursor rule for embedding generation process
Add documentation for cursor IDE about how docs embeddings are generated,
including the workflow for creating and uploading semantic search content.
* feat: improve API reference metadata upload with descriptive content
- Add preembeddings script to run codegen before embedding generation
- Enhance OpenApiReferenceSource to generate more descriptive content including
parameters, responses, path information, and better structured documentation
* feat: add Management API references to searchDocs GraphQL query
- Add ManagementApiReference GraphQL type and model for API endpoint search results
- Integrate Management API references into global search results
- Update test snapshots and add comprehensive test coverage for Management API search
* style: format
Adds support for indexing database lint warnings from the Splinter repository
into the docs search. Creates a new LintWarningsGuideLoader that fetches
markdown files from the Splinter repo and processes them as individual
searchable entries in the database advisors guide.
strictNullChecks was off for docs, which lets errors slip through and
leads to incorrect required/optional typing on Zod-inferred types. This
PR enables strictNullChecks and fixes all the existing violations.
Our environment variables are a bit of a mess, so cleaning them up:
- We have duplicate environment variables that resolve to the same thing
but just have different names, deduplicating all of these
- We have a .env.development (for publicly safe variables) and a
.env.example, we
really only need one
- Privately, we have a .env (for running scripts) and a .env.local (for
Next.js). Changing the dotenv source for scripts, so again we only need
one
Scripts currently use CJS, which is causing a bit of a mess when trying
to use shared utilities from the app. Converting everything to ESM so
there are fewer conflicts when adding new scripts going forward.
* feat(content api): add client library api reference search results
Allow searchDocs results to also return function references from the
client library APIs
* fix(content api): refine language enum handling
* feat: llms.txt
* feat: split llms.txt into multiple files
We have too many docs, so the concatenated text file uses an unreasonable amount of tokens. Chunk it up a little so it's more usable.
Search index pipeline shouldn't be trying to read troubleshooting section yet (those are still searched via GH discussions). Trying to read it errors as they don't have the same frontmatter shape as other guides content.
The end of the Great Migration is here!!!
Moves the last pages over, deleting pages like the FAQ that we don't use
and that contain duplicated information anyway.
Dev secret auth page URL had to change as App Router doesn't like the
leading underscores in the path.
Also fixes the not-found recommendations to use the proper Next.js
not-found page so it will return a 404 as it should. (I was under the
erroneous impression that I couldn't get the pathname in not-found.tsx,
that is not true, so this works better.)
* Bump the version of turbo to 2.0.3.
* Fix the breaking changes in turbo config.
* Make the npm version more loose.
* Fix the build command for the database-design app.
* Try adding some env vars to the turbo for www.
* Add more missing env vars.
* Bump the turbo version to 2.0.4.
* Remove SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY from docs#build since it's used by other scripts, not by build.
* fix: correct mgmt api naming
* feat: new command to generate mgmt api sections
* feat: sort section items
* chore: tidy up
* fix: add generate sections to the default command
* feat: add gha to auto update mgmt api docs
* chore: tidy up
* fix: operationId logic to support self-hosting references
* chore: update latest mgmt api specs
* chore: update latest mgmt api specs
Begin the process of moving our MDX files into their own content directory.
Fixed a few minor bugs re: ToC and tabs not rerendering consistently on page navigation. (The ToC thing wasn't a problem before the refactor, the tabs thing is a problem on prod.)
Moved MDX files can't import their own components, so everything they require needs to be back in the component prop for mdx-remote's serializer. Cleaned this up a bit and lazy-loaded heavy/rare stuff. Also, the component prop doesn't take arbitrary objects (only actual components), so imported data has to be wrapped in a component.
Improve the way docs are indexed and FTS results are ranked, so results are more relevant.
Also improve debouncing and searching UX so it feels a bit faster and you can scan the results more easily.
