  • rebase_schema_generateGenerate Drizzle schema from Rebase TypeScript collection definitions. Run this after adding or modifying collection files.
  • rebase_db_pushApply the current Drizzle schema directly to the database (development shortcut, skips migration files). Refuses changes that destroy data — use rebase_schema_plan first, then ask the human to run `rebase db push --allow-destructive`.
  • rebase_schema_introspectIntrospect the live database and generate Rebase collection definitions from existing tables.
  • rebase_db_generateGenerate SQL migration files from schema changes (compares current Drizzle schema against the last entity).
  • rebase_db_migrateRun all pending SQL migrations against the database.
  • rebase_generate_sdkGenerate a fully-typed JavaScript/TypeScript SDK from collection definitions.
  • rebase_doctorDetect schema drift between collection definitions, generated Drizzle schema, and the live PostgreSQL database.
  • rebase_db_branch_createCreate a new database branch (Admins only).
  • rebase_db_branch_listList all database branches (Admins only).
  • rebase_db_branch_deleteDelete an existing database branch (Admins only).
  • rebase_db_branch_infoShow information and status for a database branch (Admins only).
  • rebase_db_branch_switchPoint this checkout at a database branch, or back at the main database (Admins only). With no name, reports which branch is active. Writes a local pointer, never `.env`.
