Docs Recommend Unmaintained `Npx Plugins` Command; Migrate To `Npx Skills`

Supabase documentation for AI tools suggests installing plugins via `npx plugins`, but the npm package `plugins` is unmaintained and its GitHub repository returns 404. Vercel has moved this functionality to the `skills` CLI, so the docs should be updated.

Origin Analysis

Documentation still references the deprecated `npx plugins` command; the underlying npm package `plugins` points to a deleted Vercel repository and has been superseded by the `skills` CLI.

1. Visit the Supabase AI Tools plugins documentation page. 2. Follow the installation instructions that use `npx plugins`. 3. Attempt to use the command or inspect the package, observing that the GitHub repository is missing and Vercel indicates the functionality moved to `skills`.

Fixing Code Block

```bash
# Replace the obsolete `npx plugins` command with the Vercel Skills CLI
npx skills add supabase-community/supabase-plugin
```

Update the documentation to use the current `skills` CLI instead of the retired `plugins` package. This aligns with Vercel's migration and ensures users install the maintained tool.

Edge Case Audit

Before merging, verify the exact `skills` command syntax and package name against Vercel's current documentation; the suggested command may need adjustment. Roll back by reverting the documentation change if users report errors. Consider pinning the CLI version or adding a note for teams already using `plugins`.
