This is a Claude Code / Cursor plugin from neondatabase/agent-skills that bundles a set of Agent Skills for Neon Serverless Postgres together with the Neon MCP Server. According to the README, skills are folders of instructions, scripts, and resources that agents automatically invoke when they detect a relevant task. The plugin packages the neon, neon-postgres, and neon-postgres-branches skills along with the Neon MCP Server to allow natural-language management of Neon projects and databases. After installation, users authenticate with Neon via OAuth the first time they use an MCP tool. The repository also documents separate skills for Claimable Postgres (instant temporary databases) and an egress optimizer for diagnosing high data-transfer costs.
Overview
Neon is a Serverless Postgres platform (covering Postgres, Auth, Data API, Object Storage, Compute Functions, and an AI Gateway, per the README). This plugin provides agent-facing Skills and an MCP Server so AI coding agents (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor) can discover documentation and best practices and perform Neon database operations through natural language.
What you can do with neon
- Install via npx skills add neondatabase/agent-skills, or as a Claude Code plugin (/plugin marketplace add neondatabase/agent-skills then /plugin install neon-postgres@neon), or as a Cursor plugin (/add-plugin neon-postgres)
- Get an overview of the Neon platform and how to get started, via the neon skill
- Reference a comprehensive index of Neon Serverless Postgres documentation and best practices, via the neon-postgres skill
- Choose and create the right Neon branch type for migration testing or isolated development, including schema-only branches and reset-from-parent workflows, via the neon-postgres-branches skill
- Provision instant temporary Postgres databases with no login/signup/credit card via Claimable Postgres (neon.new), supporting REST API, CLI, and SDK
- Diagnose and fix excessive Postgres egress (network data transfer) to investigate high database bills or query overfetching, via the egress optimizer skill
- Use example prompts such as recommending a connection method, setting up Drizzle ORM, setting up Neon Auth for Next.js, querying with neon-js, creating a branch via the API, or using the serverless driver for edge functions
- Authenticate with Neon via OAuth on first use of the bundled Neon MCP Server's tools
