Danny WhiteandJoshen Lim 05a45dd1ed feat(studio): rename Replication to Pipelines (#50637)
## What kind of change does this PR introduce?

Feature and docs update.

## What is the current behavior?

The Dashboard lists Pipelines destinations under Database > Replication.
Read replicas have moved to Infrastructure, but the temporary notices
remain on the destinations page and new destination sheet.

Closes PIPE-1021.

## What is the new behavior?

The canonical Dashboard routes are Database > Pipelines, while legacy
Replication list and detail URLs permanently redirect to the equivalent
Pipelines routes. Navigation, command palette, shortcuts, pipeline
links, docs, and current marketing copy use Pipelines. Read-replica
notices and their obsolete dismissal state are removed.

The Management API, pipeline behaviour, replication logs, and Postgres
replication terminology remain unchanged.

## To test

- Open `/project/<ref>/database/pipelines` and confirm the Database
navigation, page header, and pipeline breadcrumb say Pipelines.
- Open
`/project/<ref>/database/replication?source=bookmark#destinations` and a
legacy pipeline detail URL. Confirm each redirects to the matching
Pipelines URL while preserving parameters and fragments.
- From the Pipelines page, open Add destination. Confirm no read-replica
migration notice appears.
- Open the Pipelines guide and confirm its Dashboard steps lead to
Database > Pipelines.

## Before merge

- [ ] Get changelog entry reviewed
https://github.com/supabase/changelog/pull/262 and prepare to merge
simultaneously

Maintainers

If you are a maintainer of any tools in the Supabase ecosystem, you can use this site to provide documentation for the tools & libraries that you maintain.

DocSpec

We use documentation specifications which can be used to generate human-readable docs.

  • OpenAPI: for documenting API endpoints.
  • SDKSpec (custom to Supabase): for SDKs and client libraries.
  • ConfigSpec (custom to Supabase): for configuration options.
  • CLISpec (custom to Supabase): for CLI commands and usage.

The benefit of using custom specifications is that we can generate many other types from a strict schema (eg, HTML and manpages). It also means that we can switch to any documentation system we want. On this site we use Next.js, but on Supabase's official website, we use a custom React site and expose only a subset of the available API for each tool.

Contributing

To contribute to docs, see the developers' guide and contributing guide. If you write with an AI coding agent, use the /write-the-docs skill to draft and /edit-the-docs to revise an existing page.
