What’s actually broken
DB Pro:
Enforces strict TLS verification
Uses its own certificate trust bundle
Does not:
read macOS System Keychain reliably
allow custom CA injection
allow “require but don’t verify”
Supabase pooler requires either:
trusting Supabase’s CA, or
allowing non-verified SSL
DB Pro supports neither.
So it fails with:
self signed certificate in certificate chain
This is a product limitation / bug in DB Pro.
