Neon Postgres Branching

The outcome of this skill should be a created Neon branch (or a clear, actionable next step if creation cannot proceed). Choose the correct branch type, then execute branch creation via MCP or CLI.

• Normal branch for realistic migration and query testing with real data.
• Schema-only branch (Beta) for sensitive data workflows where structure is needed without copying rows.

Branch Type Decision

Use this decision rule first:

1. If the user wants to test complex migrations, performance, or behavior against production-like data, choose a normal branch.
2. If the user needs to avoid copying sensitive data, choose a schema-only branch.

If the request is ambiguous, ask one clarifying question: "Do you need realistic data for testing, or only schema structure because the data is sensitive?"
