Neon Access

Use this skill when a writer asks to run SQL, for example: “Use $neon-access to run SELECT now().” The workflow is the only route to Neon; never ask for or expose NEON_DATABASE_URL.

Run SQL

1. Treat an explicit request as authorization to generate the exact SQL and a short audit reason, then dispatch without a second confirmation. Ask only when unresolved ambiguity would materially change the SQL. Treat every statement as potentially state-changing because the skill does not inspect or classify it.

2. Save the exact UTF-8 SQL in a temporary .sql file. Preserve the text byte-for-byte; do not normalize, split, wrap, retry, or add a transaction.

3. From the repository root, run:

   python3 .claude/skills/neon-access/scripts/run_neon_workflow.py \
     --reason '<short audit reason>' \
     /absolute/path/to/request.sql
   

4. Return the decoded JSON result and workflow URL. If the result status is error, report the database error and possible partial effects; never retry automatically.

Boundaries

• The caller and workflow require GitHub write or admin permission; the workflow checks both the original and triggering actors.
• The workflow reads the existing secrets.NEON_DATABASE_URL. Users do not retrieve or provide this secret.
• Any PostgreSQL SQL accepted by the server is allowed, including multiple statements, DDL, DML, functions, and explicit transaction control.
• psql backslash commands are client commands, not PostgreSQL SQL, and are unsupported.
• Execution uses autocommit and performs no implicit transaction wrapping. A later error can leave earlier statements committed.
• Returned rows are capped at 4 MiB; this does not limit or cancel SQL execution.
• Results and database errors are encrypted for the one-time local key before artifact upload. Public logs and summaries contain metadata only.
