Second one I'm using now is Supabase.
So this one is, I'm probably going to get some heat for this, because a lot of developers are probably going to say, oh, this is not secure, why are you doing this?
But in my experience...
This MCP, and you can use this for Firebase, you can use it for whatever database you're using, is so powerful to correctly set up a project for you.
So I'm constantly using this to set up projects from scratch.
Because before, I would have Cloud Code do all the coding and everything, but then I would have to manually go set up my database, make sure I'm configuring rules correctly.
I would argue that if you are using a tool like Supabase MCP,
where Cloud Code has full access to Supabase.
It can spin up everything for you.
It actually might be more secure because it has caught things that I have manually configured wrong.
It has set up the security rules better than I would have done, to be honest.
And so this is something where I actually do recommend if you're a beginner or if you're a seasoned developer, it's really helpful to use this.
And if you're a developer and you don't trust it, at least use the Supabase MCP to
read your configuration and just double check your work so you can just say hey I set up the Superbase server I set it all up I've hooked it up can you just double check that I set it up correctly check all the security rules check all this stuff check the indexes so the performance is good this is a really powerful MCP and again you can do this for Firebase you can do this for AWS they have an MCP I believe as well
It's just such a powerful way.
Just give Cloud Coder Cursor access to these tools and anything you can do in the UI, they'll be able to do.
When I'm in production, though, I will say I am way more cautious about using it because it could just delete your entire server if it wanted to and just delete the database.
I am a little bit more cautious, but I still do run this in production, though, because it's just so much faster for my workflow to use this.
Those are the only two that I'm seriously using right now.
I'm sure that's going to change in a few months, though.
