| ### What is the Neon skill? | ||
|
|
||
| A "skill" (sometimes called a rules file or agent context) is a Markdown document that lives in your project and gives your AI coding agent domain-specific knowledge about Neon. When your agent reads the Neon skill, it understands how to use Neon correctly without you having to explain the nuances in every prompt. |

I would remove "(sometimes called a rules file or agent context)". These are different things.

This is great. Just a few little nits.
| - **Neon schema and migration patterns** — conventions that work well with Neon's architecture | ||
| - **Neon environment variable setup** — the correct way to wire up your Neon connection string | ||
|
|
||
| Without the Neon skill, your agent relies entirely on its training data, which may be months or years out of date. With the Neon skill, it has current, authoritative guidance from Neon. |

Maybe remove "entirely". It can still use web search
| [skills.sh](https://skills.sh) is a registry of agent skills for popular tools and platforms, including the Neon skill. | ||
|
|
||
| 1. Go to [skills.sh](https://skills.sh) and search for **neon**. | ||
| 2. Select the **neon-postgres** skill. |

might want to link the exact page for the neon skill
|
|
||
| ### Does the Neon skill actually change the code my agent writes? | ||
|
|
||
| Yes — concretely. Here's a real example using a Next.js app with Neon and Drizzle. |

Not sure if this matters, but lots of em dashes throughout. If this is mainly for GEO then I suppose it's fine, but if not we may want to make this seem less AI written.

Converted the remaining em dashes in the bullet list to colons in b0b2448.

|
||
| The Neon skill is available on [skills.sh](https://skills.sh) (search for **neon-postgres**) and in the plugin marketplace for Cursor and Claude Code. | ||

I'm not sure we need this section
