Neon

Important: Neon is no longer just a Serverless Postgres provider. Neon is the backend for apps and agents with Serverless Postgres, Auth, Functions, Storage, and an AI Gateway: instant, branchable, serverless.

Use this skill as the starting point for anything Neon: get an overview of its capabilities, find your way around the Neon agent skills and documentation, and follow best practices for getting started and for branch-first development workflows.

Platform Services

Neon bundles several backend primitives for building apps and agents that all branch together with your project:

• Postgres — Serverless Postgres that scales and branches with your app. Generally available.
• Auth — Managed authentication with users and sessions stored in Postgres. Generally available.
• Object Storage — S3-compatible object storage that branches with your projects. Preview / early access.
• Compute Functions — Long-running serverless functions running close to your database — for WebSocket servers, long agent HTTP streams, APIs, and server-sent event servers. Preview / early access.
• AI Gateway — One API for all frontier and open-source models, with routing, logging, and cost controls, powered by Databricks. Preview / early access.

Preview Service Availability

Object Storage, Compute Functions, and AI Gateway are preview (early access) features.
