> db engineers approve the generated migration script

yeah - this is definitely the intended flow here. We won't be recommending anyone blindly applying generated migrations.

As you mention, it is expected that you generate & review on your local development machine, check into source control, push & merge. We've also been using this internally for ~2 years now and it works great

Do you keep the history of applied migrations? (Just in case subtle issue need to be investigated later)

yeah, migrations are generated from the Declarative files. For example, the steps are for adding a new column:

1/ Add a new column to the declarative file

2/ Generate a new migration: `supabase db diff -f my_new_migration`

3/ Review/edit the generated migration, check it into git

4/ Apply migration to database
