## FAQ

### Which databases are supported?

Rowbit currently supports MariaDB and MySQL, including support over TLS. PostgreSQL is planned for a future release.

### Can I undo a change if an AI agent makes a mistake?

Yes, Rowbit allows you to undo any single change by keeping track of every row a change touched.

### Does the preview process modify my actual data?

No, the preview process only reads the affected rows and replays the write on a private temporary copy to show you the changes.

### How do I connect Rowbit to my AI agent?

You can use the `rowbit setup` command to find your database URL and configure rules, or use specific connect commands like `rowbit connect cursor` or `rowbit connect claude-code`.
