journey-rls
Use as the RLS build stage of the Butterbase journey, after journey-schema. Implements the RLS section of 02-plan.md by delegating to debug-rls policy patterns (for proactive creation, not debugging). Calls manage_rls (create_user_isolation, enable, create_policy). Folded into journey-schema when hackathon_mode is true.

Preflight
If docs/butterbase/03-preflight.md is missing, older than 24 hours, or 00-state.md has app_id: null, invoke butterbase-skills:journey-preflight first. Wait for it to return successfully before proceeding.

Read the RLS section of
02-plan.md. Print it back:"About to install RLS policies: <list>. Proceed?". Wait foryes. -
Invoke
butterbase-skills:debug-rlsvia the Skill tool with modeproactive, passing the RLS plan andapp_id. For each user-isolation entry, the wrapped skill callsmanage_rls action: create_user_isolation. For custom policies,manage_rls action: enablethenaction: create_policy. -
After it returns, sanity-check with
manage_rls action: listand show the user. -
Append one line to

manage_rls action: listverification — invisible policy failures are the #1 RLS gotcha. - ❌ Creating policies on a table where RLS is not enabled —
enablemust come first.
