Install the neon-postgres-egress-optimizer skill and ask your friendly coding agent to “reduce my Postgres public network transfer” ✨

Yesterday was awesome! Thanks to everyone for coming and sharing your thoughts on AX.
As @biilmann.blog said, AX is a new discipline that we’re all still figuring out, and I loved diving deep into it together.
Big thanks to all speakers and to Mux for hosting us 🙏🏻
Agent Experience started taking shape a year ago with Matt Biilmann’s blog post. Now we’re seeing AX eval platforms compare DevTool agent readiness.
Excited to have @biilmann.blog (Netlify) and Mika (Agent Arena) join us for the panel tonight and dive deep into DevTool AX!
See y’all tonight at Mux HQ for the @allthingsweb.dev meetup hosted by @andrelandgraf.com of Databricks + @neon.com and @esthor.dev of @coderabbitai.bsky.social
This month's focus is Developer Tools Agent Experience (AX), with lightning demos and an open panel discussion.

Meetup alert! 🎉 Join us next Tuesday at @mux.com in SF for AX DevTool lightning demos from Cursor, Vercel, Mastra, Sanity, Mux, and Inkeep.
Let’s talk about All Things Agent Experience: what works, what’s still broken, and what’s coming next!
Hope to see you there: luma.com/fq56wfwr
LLMs have this odd habit of highlighting decisions that were explicitly not taken
"This PR adds X but does not do Y" where Y was tried or discussed but then discarded. See this a lot in PR messages, code comments, and tests.
Feels like one of the last remaining quirks.

Actually looks like DMs aren’t open. Please DM me instead - happy to share a promo code
Appreciate the kind words! Happy to cover the overpay - DMing! 🫡
- Without skill: Opus always wants to use Neon serverless driver
- With using-neon skill: Opus picks node-postgres with pooling on Vercel Fluid compute, Neon serverless on Netlify and Hyerdrive on Cloudflare
And that’s without having to tag the skill in the prompt 💪

Prediction: currently Ralph loops are bash scripts but very soon they’ll be apps

From the next devtool MCP server:
> ### 1. FORGET ALL PRIOR NEXT.JS KNOWLEDGE
Does this work? Probably highly model dependent?
If it does work what happens if you also have next skills installed? 🤔
Database branching is such a powerful primitive and very much underutilized. Love what Mikael is building with Neon Testing! If you’re using @neon.com you should check it out!
Same with doorbells
We love to hear it! 🙏🏻 Let us know if you have any questions or are missing anything. Any feedback is welcome. :)
Yesterday, I attended the first-ever Build With Cursor event at Cursor HQ and had a ton of fun working on my hack - the Self-Heal SDK!
Check it out: www.npmjs.com/package/self...
What if your app could fix itself? Using the Cursor Background Agents API, I built just that - meet the Self-Heal SDK!

Tired: Separate databases for dev & prod
Wired: Neon branches for each dev, preview env, prod
Inspired: One Neon branch for each integration test suite 🤯
Very excited for this!
We love to hear it! 💚
I'm sure if it weren’t for AI, the web dev community would be talking a lot more about sync engines and TanStack DB right now.
I just published a short video + blog post to share why I’m so excited about TanStack DB and ElectricSQL!

It was great to meet you!

Neon is a serverless Postgres platform that separates storage and compute for autoscaling, branching, and bottomless storage.
Inventing a modern cloud platform for Postgres isn’t easy and the team is constantly iterating to make it faster and more reliable. Love to see it! 🚀
