Andrew Valleteau da3b0cb3ec fix(cli): login creating duplicate tokens on re-renders (#46120)

## What kind of change does this PR introduce?

Bug fix

## What is the current behavior?

The CLI login page was firing `POST /platform/cli/login` multiple times
per page load due to an unstable `navigate` reference in the parent
component re-triggering the effect. This caused several duplicate
personal access tokens to be created for each browser sign-in attempt
(regression CLI-1491).

Additionally, error messages from non-Error rejection shapes (like those
from openapi-fetch) were being replaced with a generic "Unknown error"
message instead of surfacing the actual platform error.

## What is the new behavior?

1. **Prevents duplicate API calls**: Added a `useRef` guard
(`startedForSessionIdRef`) to ensure `createCliLoginSession` is only
called once per `sessionId`, even if the parent component re-renders
with a new `navigate` reference.

2. **Improved error handling**: Created a `getErrorMessage()` utility
that properly extracts error messages from both Error instances and
plain objects (e.g., `{ message: string, statusCode: number }`),
allowing platform error messages to surface instead of generic
fallbacks.

3. **Added comprehensive test coverage**:
- E2E test verifying the POST fires exactly once per page load with
realistic network latency
   - E2E test confirming platform error messages are displayed correctly
   - Unit test for non-Error rejection shapes
- Unit test verifying the effect doesn't re-trigger on parent re-renders

## Additional context

The fix addresses the root cause by:
- Using a ref to track which `sessionId` has already been processed,
preventing re-execution when deps change
- Extracting error message handling into a reusable utility that handles
both Error instances and plain objects
- Adding tests that specifically check for the regression (multiple POST
calls and error message display)

The E2E test includes a 400ms delay in the mock response to simulate
real-world conditions where the original bug only surfaced after React
committed multiple re-renders.

Closes: CLI-1491

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=
