How are you managing Supabase credentials across environments without things drifting?

One recurring issue we ve been seeing with Supabase setups is not the database itself, but how credentials are managed across environments. The common pattern looks something like:

credentials stored in .env files or secrets managers
multiple environments (dev, staging, prod)
manual propagation or duplication across those environments

It works, but over time it seems easy for things to drift:

a key gets rotated in one environment but not others
a redeploy misses an env var
credentials get misconfigured during setup or migration

Many things have changed since then, and they want to know what building at startups looks like in 2026.
