neon-postgres agent skill by neondatabase
Guides and best practices for working with Lakebase Postgres on Neon: connections, pooled vs direct, schema migrations, branching, autoscaling, scale-to-zero, instant restore, read replicas, IP allow lists, logical replication, and Lakebase Search. Use when the work is an existing DATABASE_URL, SQL, schema, inspect, or search. New backends, Auth, files, Functions, and LLM calls go to the parent `neon` skill. Live queries, reactive UIs, and realtime data go to `neon-realtime`. Also use for "@neondatabase/serverless", "@neondatabase/neon-js", "neon inspect db", "semantic search", "vector search", "full-text search", "BM25", or "hybrid search".
