Sean OliverandCharis Lam 6bbe2c3297 feat(telemetry): add dev telemetry toolbar (#42259)
## Problem
We need a local-only UI to inspect client and server telemetry events
and override flags during development without touching non-local env
behavior. This work is intended to be shared across Studio, Docs, and
WWW.

## Changes
- Introduced a shared `dev-tools` package with the Dev Telemetry Toolbar
UI, trigger, and provider.
- Wired the toolbar into Studio, Docs, and WWW app shells (local-only
gating).
- Added a local-only `devTelemetry()` opt-in with storage gating and SSE
subscription.
- Wired client PostHog events into a local listener and re-exported
types.
- Added local flag override cookie support in the UI and CODEOWNERS for
the new package.
- Added unit tests covering local/non-local behavior and flag utilities.

## Testing
Manual (local only):
- Start each app locally: `pnpm dev:studio`, `pnpm dev:docs`, `pnpm
dev:www`
- Open the app, run `devTelemetry()` in the browser console
- Click around and confirm both client and server events appear (client
will be page views only)
- Verify feature flag overrides (PostHog + ConfigCat) persist and
restore correctly
- Confirm dismissing the toolbar clears local storage and hides the
trigger

Reference Docs

Supabase Reference Docs

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.

Versioning

All tools have versioned docs, which are kept in separate folders. For example, the CLI has the following folders and files:

  • cli: the "next" release.
  • cli_spec: contains the DocSpec for the "next" release (see below).
  • cli_versioned_docs: a version of the documentation for every release (including the most current version).
  • cli_versioned_sidebars: a version of the sidebar for every release (including the most current version).

When you release a new version of a tool, you should also release a new version of the docs. You can do this via the command line. For example, if you just released the CLI version 1.0.1:

npm run cli:version 1.0.1

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.
