Neon Agent Skills
Official skills for Neon's serverless Postgres — branching, auth, functions and AI gateway.
About
Neon ships official agent skills from the neondatabase/agent-skills repo, and the Neon CLI can install them directly (neon skills -s neon -y). The pack covers the whole platform: neon-postgres for connections, schemas, pooling and scale-to-zero; neon-postgres-branches for dev/preview/test branching; neon-auth for managed Better Auth; neon-object-storage; neon-functions for long-running serverless handlers; and neon-ai-gateway for calling LLMs through one credential. Docs live at neon.com/docs/ai/skills.
The honest picture: these skills are excellent if you're on Neon and irrelevant if you're not — they're product docs in skill form, not database theory. They also track Neon's current branding (Lakebase Postgres), so older tutorials calling it plain 'Neon Postgres' can confuse agents mixing sources. And like all vendor skills, they won't tell you when a different database would serve you better.
