Provision instant temporary Postgres databases (pg.new) for development, demos, and prototyping — no signup required; databases expire after 72 hours unless cla
What it does
Provision throwaway Postgres instances via Neon’s Claimable Postgres (pg.new). The skill automates creating short-lived databases, parsing the returned connection string and claim URL, and writing DATABASE_URL entries to a project's .env. It supports REST, CLI, SDK and Vite plugin flows so agents can provision databases programmatically or via developer tooling.
When to use it
Use this when you need a quick, disposable Postgres environment for local development, demos, CI experiments, or lightweight prototyping and you don’t want to create an account. Also useful for agents that need a database to run migrations, seed sample data, or run tests in ephemeral environments. Remind users to claim the DB within 72 hours to retain it.
What's included
- Scripts: guidance for REST calls and CLI usage (npx get-db@latest) is provided in the skill body.
- References: documentation notes in the SKILL.md explain API endpoints, response shape, CLI options, and Vite plugin integration.
- Instructions: step-by-step workflows for API/CLI/SDK paths, checks to avoid overwriting existing .env vars, and optional seeding/testing commands (psql SELECT 1). Safety notes explain not overwriting .env and warning about git exposure.
Compatible agents
This skill is repo-level and tool-agnostic; it’s suitable for agents that can run shell/Node.js commands or call external HTTP endpoints (e.g., Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Gemini CLI).
