Neon Serverless Postgres

Neon is a serverless Postgres platform that separates compute and storage to offer autoscaling, branching, instant restore, and scale-to-zero. It's fully compatible with Postgres and works with any language, framework, or ORM that supports Postgres.

When to Use This Skill

Activate this skill when users want to:

• Create or manage a Postgres database
• Set up a Neon project or branch
• Connect an application to Neon Postgres
• Use Neon features like branching, autoscaling, or scale-to-zero
• Set up Neon Auth for user authentication
• Use the Neon MCP server, CLI, or API
• Work with the @neondatabase/serverless driver or @neondatabase/neon-js SDK

Prerequisites

The Neon MCP server is required for project and database management. It uses OAuth and authenticates via browser on first use — no API key needed.
