Neon + Memtro

Ask whether a Neon branch's compute is running, or why an operation failed.

Connect Neon with an API key and Memtro reads projects with region and Postgres version, branches with state, size and who created them, compute endpoints and whether they are active or idle, recent operations, databases on a branch, and usage history. It never returns connection strings, role passwords or the data in your tables. It reads on demand and there is no hourly sync. When asked, and once an administrator has granted the action by name, it can create, restore or permanently delete branches, start billable compute, suspend, restart or resize computes, take snapshots, create databases, and delete a project.

In Memtro

What you can do with Neon in Memtro

Ask in plain English from chat, your editor, a scheduled job or your own agent. The model picks the right Neon tool, reads what it needs, and answers with the source cited.

What it does

  1. 01Projects with region, Postgres version, organisation and when compute was last active
  2. 02Branches by state, with parent, logical size, expiry, compute used and who created them
  3. 03Compute endpoints with branch, state, autoscaling range and scale-to-zero timeout, and recent operations with status, error and duration
  4. 04This billing period's compute hours and data written and transferred, and usage history on a Neon Launch plan or above
  5. 05When asked and granted, creates branches (with a compute, billed), renames, protects or sets the default, takes snapshots, creates databases, restores a branch to an earlier point (replacing its data) and permanently deletes one
  6. 06When asked and granted, starts billable compute, suspends, restarts, resizes or deletes a compute (open connections drop), changes a project's name or history retention, and deletes a project, recoverable in Neon for 7 days

Acts when asked

When you ask it to

These tools change something in Neon. The model is told to use them only when you ask for exactly that, and an administrator grants each one by name to the teams that may use it; a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.

  1. 01Create a branch, optionally with a compute (billed)
  2. 02Rename a branch, protect or unprotect it, or set its expiry
  3. 03Make a branch the project's default
  4. 04Restore a branch to an earlier point in time (replaces its data)
  5. 05Take a snapshot of a branch
  6. 06Delete a branch (permanent)
  7. 07Create a database on a branch
  8. 08Start a compute (billed)
  9. 09Suspend a compute (drops connections)
  10. 10Restart a compute (drops connections)
  11. 11Resize a compute or change its scale-to-zero timeout
  12. 12Delete a compute (drops connections)
  13. 13Rename a project or change its history retention
  14. 14Delete a project (recoverable in Neon for 7 days)
In practice

Ask it like you would a colleague

Once Neon is connected, these are the kinds of things people ask. Plain questions, no syntax. If the answer lives partly in another system you have connected, Memtro looks there too.

Neon + Memtro
  • Is the compute on the main branch active or idle?

  • Why did the database fail to start this morning?

  • Which branches were created this week, and by whom?

  • How many compute hours has the Acme project used this billing period?

  • Create a branch of main called invoice-fix with no compute

01

Why it would not start

An engineer sees connection errors on the Northwind staging app and asks why. Memtro reads the project's recent operations, finds a failed compute start at 09:12 with its error, and confirms the endpoint has been active since 09:20.

02

Clearing old previews

The founder asks Memtro to delete four Neon preview branches that have not changed since August. Memtro names each back to her, and once she confirms deletes them permanently with their data, leaving the protected main branch and its children untouched.

Teams

Where it fits

The teams that lean on Neon most, a question each of them asks, and what they connect beside it.

Better together

Works with

A record in Neon is rarely the whole story. Connect the systems that hold the rest and Memtro checks them together, then remembers what it learned so the next question starts further along.

Setup

How to connect

Connect withAPI key
  1. 1

    In the Neon Console open Settings → API keys → Create new API key and copy it: Neon shows it once

  2. 2

    A personal key works on any plan and reaches every organisation you belong to. An organisation or project-scoped key reaches less, but only an organisation admin can make one

  3. 3

    In Memtro open Connections → Neon, paste the API key, add the Organization ID only if a personal key belongs to several, and connect. Usage history needs Launch or above

  4. 4

    Ask whether the production branch's compute is awake

Also works from

Chat in the dashboard, the OpenAI-compatible API, scheduled jobs, and any MCP client: Claude Code, OpenCode, Cursor, Claude Desktop. The Neon tools are the same everywhere.

FAQ

Questions

Can Memtro change anything in Neon?+

Only when you ask, and only what it has been granted: create a branch, optionally with a compute (billed); rename a branch, protect or unprotect it, or set its expiry; make a branch the project's default; restore a branch to an earlier point in time (replaces its data); take a snapshot of a branch; delete a branch (permanent); create a database on a branch; start a compute (billed); suspend a compute (drops connections); restart a compute (drops connections); resize a compute or change its scale-to-zero timeout; delete a compute (drops connections); rename a project or change its history retention; delete a project (recoverable in Neon for 7 days). Every other tool reads, searches or lists. The Connections page labels the tools that act, an administrator grants each one by name to the teams that may use it, and a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.

Who can use a Neon connection?+

A personal connection serves only your own requests. A shared connection serves the organisation: everyone, or only the teams an admin chooses. Admins can always add shared connections; other members need the permission.

Does Memtro store my Neon data?+

Credentials are encrypted at rest. Tool results are cached briefly so agent loops do not repeat identical calls, and the facts the model extracts are saved to your organisation's memory with provenance (system, record and link) so they can be checked and superseded.

How do I connect Neon?+

API key. In the Neon Console open Settings → API keys → Create new API key and copy it: Neon shows it once.
