Questions about neon-postgres
What does the neon-postgres skill do?
Guides and best practices for working with Lakebase Postgres on Neon: connections, pooled vs direct, schema migrations, branching (including schema-only, reset-from-parent, and branch-per-PR workflows), autoscaling, scale-to-zero, instant restore, read replicas, IP allow lists, logical replication, egress optimization, 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", "@neon/neon-js", "neon inspect db", "neon postgres computes", "Neon branch", "schema-only branch", "reset branch", "branch per PR", high database bills, network transfer or egress, SELECT * optimization, query overfetching, "semantic search", "vector search", "full-text search", "BM25", or "hybrid search".
