Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/neondatabase/ai-rules --skill neon-auth- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads neon-auth automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.
SKILL.md
The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.
Neon Auth Integration
Add authentication to your application.
When to Use This Skill
- Adding authentication to a new or existing project
- Implementing sign-in, sign-up, and session management
- Configuring social authentication (Google, GitHub)
Package: @neondatabase/auth (auth only, smaller bundle)
Need database queries too? Use the neon-js skill instead for @neondatabase/neon-js with unified auth + data API.
Code Generation Rules
When generating TypeScript/JavaScript code, follow these rules:
Complete reference: See Code Generation Rules for:
- Import path handling (path aliases vs relative imports)
- Neon package imports (subpath exports, adapter patterns)
- CSS import strategy (Tailwind detection, single import method)
- File structure patterns
Key points:
- Check
tsconfig.jsonfor path aliases before generating imports - Use relative imports if unsure or no aliases exist
BetterAuthReactAdapterMUST be imported fromauth/react/adapterssubpath- Adapters are factory functions - call them with
() - Choose ONE CSS import method (Tailwind or CSS, not both)

Use when building an app or backend on Neon, or when "Neon" or "Lakebase Postgres" is mentioned. Child skill neon-postgres wins for an existing DATABASEURL, SQL, schema, inspect, or search. Child skill neon-auth wins for login, users, sessions, identity routing, and Managed Better Auth setup. Child skill neon-realtime wins for live queries in reactive apps and agents. Also use for object storage, S3, buckets, serverless functions, function triggers, cron, AI gateway, LLM calls, realtime, logs, Loki, Grafana, observability, postgres, database, backend, Claimable Neon, neon.new, or a no-signup database.
