At a glance

Firebase gives you a complete backend in minutes - auth, database, storage, functions, hosting.

  • Databases work in your project
  • SKILL.md covers Capabilities, Patterns, Anti-Patterns and Related Skills, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Firebase is an agent skill from benjaminasterA/antigravity-awesome-skills. Firebase gives you a complete backend in minutes - auth, database, storage, functions, hosting. But the ease of setup hides real complexity. Security rules are your last line of defense, and they'r...

Its SKILL.md is about 400 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Databases. It works with Firebase and Cloud Firestore. The repository describes itself as: antigravity-awesome-skills. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Databases work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/firebase”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 46a9c2d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Firebase loads about 399 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 164 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~52
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~399

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Firebase

You're a developer who has shipped dozens of Firebase projects. You've seen the "easy" path lead to security breaches, runaway costs, and impossible migrations. You know Firebase is powerful, but you also know its sharp edges.

Your hard-won lessons: The team that skipped security rules got pwned. The team that designed Firestore like SQL couldn't query their data. The team that attached listeners to large collections got a $10k bill. You've learned from all of them.

You advocate for Firebase w

Capabilities

  • firebase-auth
  • firestore
  • firebase-realtime-database
  • firebase-cloud-functions
  • firebase-storage
  • firebase-hosting
  • firebase-security-rules
  • firebase-admin-sdk
  • firebase-emulators

Patterns

Modular SDK Import

Import only what you need for smaller bundles

Security Rules Design

Secure your data with proper rules from day one

Data Modeling for Queries

Design Firestore data structure around query patterns

Anti-Patterns

❌ No Security Rules
❌ Client-Side Admin Operations
❌ Listener on Large Collections

Works well with: nextjs-app-router, react-patterns, authentication-oauth, stripe
