Ali WaseemandDanny White fa8f49b261 feat(studio): add keyboard shortcuts to the SQL editor (#45335)
## Summary

Adds the first batch of keyboard shortcuts for the SQL editor, following
the registry pattern established for the table editor.

## Shortcuts

| Shortcut | Action | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `Esc` | Blur the SQL editor | Registered as a Monaco command with a
context-key precondition so inline widgets keep owning `Esc` (suggest,
find, parameter hints, snippet/rename mode, accessibility help, inline
suggestions, and selection cancellation). |
| `Shift+E` | Focus the SQL editor | Pairs with `Esc` for mouse-free
round-trip. |
| `Alt+Shift+F` | Prettify SQL | Now wired through the registry; the
tooltip and dropdown badge in `UtilityActions` read the keybind from the
same source of truth. Works from inside the editor (Monaco action) and
from anywhere on the page (`useShortcut`). |
| `Mod+Shift+Enter` | Run EXPLAIN ANALYZE | Routes results into the
Explain tab. Surfaces in the Monaco context menu next to "Run Query". |
| `Shift+N` | Open a new SQL snippet | Navigates to `/sql/new?skip=true`
to avoid the redirect-to-last-visited effect that fires on plain
`/sql/new`. |

All entries appear in the command menu (`Mod+P`) under "Shortcuts" while
their host components are mounted. None are surfaced in Account →
Preferences → Keyboard shortcuts yet (`showInSettings: false`), matching
how the table editor shortcuts shipped.

## Notes

- The blur shortcut intentionally lives on the Monaco instance rather
than the document-level hotkey listener — the document listener can't
preempt Monaco's own `Esc` handling. Other shortcuts that need to fire
while the editor has focus (run, save, format, explain) are registered
as Monaco actions; everything else uses `useShortcut`.
- Format and explain are double-registered (Monaco action +
`useShortcut`) so they fire whether the editor is focused or not. The
Monaco actions don't read the user's enable/disable preference yet —
same asymmetry as the existing run/save actions.
- `Shift+N` is scoped to the SQL editor route. To make it work globally
we'd register it at a higher layout level.

## Test plan

- [x] Inside editor: `Esc` blurs; suggest/find/parameter hints still
close on `Esc`; multi-cursor selection collapses on first `Esc`, blurs
on second.
- [x] Outside editor: `Shift+E` returns focus to the editor.
- [x] `Alt+Shift+F` formats from inside and outside the editor; tooltip
+ dropdown badge show the correct keybind.
- [x] `Mod+Shift+Enter` runs EXPLAIN ANALYZE and switches to the Explain
tab.
- [x] `Shift+N` opens a fresh snippet without bouncing back to the
previous one.
- [x] All five shortcuts appear in `Mod+P` with the right badges.

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **New Features**
* Keyboard shortcuts for SQL editor: format SQL, run EXPLAIN ANALYZE,
focus/blur editor, and open a new SQL snippet.
* Added "Prettify SQL" and "Run EXPLAIN ANALYZE" actions to the editor
context menu with shortcuts.
* Centralized registration of SQL editor shortcuts so they appear across
the app.

* **UX Improvements**
* Escape key blurs editor focus when appropriate to allow easy exit
without disrupting editor widgets.

* **Style**
  * Adjusted success toast capitalization for copied Markdown.

Supabase Studio

A dashboard for managing your self-hosted Supabase project, and used on our hosted platform. Built with:

What's included

Studio is designed to work with existing deployments - either the local hosted, docker setup, or our CLI. It is not intended for managing the deployment and administration of projects - that's out of scope.

As such, the features exposed on Studio for existing deployments are limited to those which manage your database:

  • Table & SQL editors
    • Saved queries are unavailable
  • Database management
    • Policies, roles, extensions, replication
  • API documentation

Managing Project Settings

Project settings are managed outside of the Dashboard. If you use docker compose, you should manage the settings in your docker-compose file. If you're deploying Supabase to your own cloud, you should store your secrets and env vars in a vault or secrets manager.

How to contribute?

  • Branch from master and name your branches with the following structure
    • {type}/{branch_name}
      • Type: chore | fix | feature
      • The branch name is arbitrary — just make sure it summarizes the work.
  • When you send a PR to master, it will automatically tag members of the frontend team for review.
  • Review the contributing checklists to help test your feature before sending a PR.
  • The Dashboard is under active development. You should run git pull frequently to make sure you're up to date.

Developer Quickstart

Note

Supabase internal use: To develop on Studio locally with the backend services, see the instructions in the internal infrastructure repo.

# You'll need to be on Node v20
# in /studio

## For external contributors
pnpm install # install dependencies
pnpm run dev # start dev server

## For internal contributors
## First clone the private supabase/platform repo and follow instructions for setting up mise
mise studio  # Run from supabase/platform alongside `mise infra`

## For all
pnpm run test # run tests
pnpm run test -- --watch # run tests in watch mode

Running within a self-hosted environment

Follow the self-hosting guide to get started.

cd ..
cd docker
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f ./dev/docker-compose.dev.yml up

Once you've got that set up, update .env in the studio folder with the corresponding values.

POSTGRES_PASSWORD=
SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=
SUPABASE_SERVICE_KEY=

Then run the following commands to install dependencies and start the dashboard.

npm install
npm run dev

If you would like to configure different defaults for "Default Organization" and "Default Project", you will need to update the .env in the studio folder with the corresponding values.

DEFAULT_ORGANIZATION_NAME=
DEFAULT_PROJECT_NAME=
