A focused check with visible limits
No magic score. The report only states what the external check actually observed.
Anonymous reads
The checker looks at what an unsigned visitor can receive through the Supabase Data API.
Uncertainty stays visible
An empty response is inconclusive. It is never turned into a false green light.
No writes
The check creates no account, inserts no data and requires no DNS verification.
When to run RLS Checker
01
Before a beta
Before inviting the first users.
02
After a migration
After changing a table, grant or policy.
03
Before production
Just before deploying a new version.
What can someone read without signing in?
Your application can look private while its data API allows anonymous reads. RLS Checker follows the public application path, discovers observable Supabase tables and checks the response available to a visitor without a login.
The check needs only your application URL. It does not request an administrator key or account password. It tests bounded reads, makes no writes, and leaves your database unchanged. A public key in a frontend is expected; access to private data is what needs investigation.
An example report, explained
Illustrative table names and outcomes. These are synthetic examples, not a scan of your application.
A blocked or empty response is not a certificate for your database. The report only covers the tables and requests observed in that run. Authenticated accounts, Storage and write policies require separate tests.

How to test Supabase RLS
Combine an external check with known test records, two accounts and operation-specific database tests.

Distinguish public project configuration from privileged credentials, and check what the public API actually permits.
