Neon

Purpose

Manage Neon serverless Postgres infrastructure through the Neon Management API: list projects, inspect one project, list branches, create or delete a branch, and list databases. Reach for this when the user wants to inspect or provision database infrastructure. SQL queries run over the Postgres wire protocol, so this connector manages infrastructure only; it does not run queries.

Tooling

All commands go through bin/neon.py:

bin/neon.py auth                                          # verify the API key
bin/neon.py projects                                      # list projects
bin/neon.py project-get --project-id PROJ_ID              # one project
bin/neon.py branches --project-id PROJ_ID                 # list branches
bin/neon.py branch-create --project-id PROJ_ID --name dev \
    --confirm "create branch dev in project PROJ_ID"       # create a branch (HIGH)
bin/neon.py branch-delete --project-id PROJ_ID --branch-id BR_ID \
    --confirm "delete branch BR_ID in project PROJ_ID"     # delete a branch (HIGH)
bin/neon.py databases --project-id PROJ_ID                # list databases

Branch create accepts an optional --parent-branch-id to branch from a non-default branch.

Auth

  • Provider id: neon (credential is collected as custom.neon)
  • Collection: API key (Neon console > Account settings > API keys) via the secure credential flow (credentials.request_api_access)
  • Auth scheme: Authorization: Bearer <api key> on every request
  • Allowed hosts: console.neon.tech
  • Status check: bin/neon.py auth

Operating Rules

  1. Branch create and branch delete are HIGH actuations. Creating a branch provisions a live database branch with compute that can incur billable usage; deleting one is irreversible and destroys the branch, its compute endpoint, and its data. Both require --confirm with the exact string the CLI echoes on every call. Missing or mismatched confirmation refuses the call.
  2. Connection strings are secrets. The branch-create response includes connection URIs that embed database passwords. The CLI masks the password portion (user:***@host) on display. Never print, log, transmit, or paste a full connection string into chat. If a connection string is needed for app config, deliver it only to the exact destination the user named.
  3. Reads (projects, branches, databases) need no confirmation. Surface choices before any write: name the project, the branch name, and the parent branch, and default cautiously. Never create a branch in a project the user did not choose.
  4. Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/neon.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the API key.
  5. Honesty flags (unverified while building this connector): the task brief named api.neon.tech, but the verified Neon Management API host is console.neon.tech; the CLI uses the verified host. The branch DELETE path was not explicitly confirmed in the docs consulted; the CLI surfaces Neon's own error if it differs.
