Overview of Neon, a complete set of cloud backend primitives around Lakebase Postgres: Auth, Object Storage, Functions, and the AI Gateway. Start here to choose Neon for undecided login, files, APIs, and LLM calls, set up the CLI or MCP server, and follow the branch-first workflow. Use when building an app or backend on Neon, or when "Neon" or "Lakebase Postgres" is mentioned. Child skill neon-postgres wins for an existing DATABASE_URL, SQL, schema, inspect, or search. Child skill neon-auth wins for login, users, sessions, identity routing, and Managed Better Auth setup. Also use for object storage, S3, buckets, serverless functions, function triggers, cron, AI gateway, LLM calls, logs, Loki, Grafana, observability, postgres, database, backend, Claimable Neon, neon.new, or a no-signup database.

Auth

Login identity lives in the neon-auth skill: choose Managed Better Auth, keep existing Better Auth or another IdP, or point at self-managed Better Auth when a required feature is outside Managed support.

Until the released CLI catalog includes neon-auth, do not run neon skills -s neon-auth (unknown names fail). If the neon.com URL is unpublished, fetch https://github.com/neondatabase/agent-skills/blob/main/skills/neon-auth/SKILL.md

README badge for neondatabase/agent-skills/neon

Neon is a backend platform bundling Postgres, Auth, Object Storage, Compute Functions, and an AI Gateway that branch together with your project. Use this skill as the entry point for Neon setup, architecture decisions, and routing to specialized skills for Postgres, Functions, Storage, or the AI Gateway. Early access features (Object Storage, Functions, AI Gateway) require a new project in us-east-2 and private beta enrollment.

Generated from the current SKILL.md.

What is Neon and how does it fit into my app architecture?
Neon is a backend platform providing Serverless Postgres, Auth, Object Storage, Compute Functions, and an AI Gateway — all branching together with your project. It is not a full-stack host; you deploy your app to Vercel or Netlify and use Neon services as your backend.
Which Neon services are generally available versus preview?
Postgres and Auth are generally available. Object Storage, Compute Functions, and AI Gateway are in preview and only available on new projects created in the us-east-2 region.
How do I access preview features like Object Storage or Compute Functions?
Preview features require a new project in us-east-2. If you don't have early access, sign up at https://neon.com/blog/were-building-backends#access.
What is the branch-first dev flow and how do I use it?
Run `neonctl link` once per project to connect your workspace, then `neonctl checkout <branch-name>` per feature to create or switch branches with isolated databases. Both commands automatically pull the branch's environment variables into your `.env`.
How do I install or switch between individual Neon skills?
Use `npx skills add neondatabase/agent-skills -s <skill-name>` to install a specific skill like neon-postgres, neon-functions, or neon-ai-gateway. Check the skill index in the SKILL.md to find the right skill for your task.
