When will support for the South Korea (ap-northeast-2) region be available?

It would be great to have support for the South Korea (ap-northeast-2) region, like Singapore. Currently, using other regions such as ap-northeast-1 (Tokyo) causes latency and raises concerns about cross-border data transfers. Local region support would improve performance and help meet data compliance requirements in Korea. Are there any plans to add support for this region, and if so, when might it become available?...

Detect protected branch

Either with the MCP server or neon CLI, I need to detect if a branch is protected. I'm using cursor hooks to prevent certain actions from being taken on protected branches. Currently, I have to manually list the protected branches. I would like MCP or CLI support to dynamically detect protection status and block actions accordingly. https://cursor.com/docs/agent/hooks...

Disable MCP tools from updating protected branches

When possible, I prefer for AI agents to use allow-list commands for uninterrupted workflows. Unfortunately, I cannot do this with the Neon MCP server, because I'm unable to programmatically protect protected branches from updates. Is there a way to do this that I have missed, or can it be added?

Disable the delete project button

if project has non empty database, ask user to delete the databases first then the project, this will avoid the accidental project deletion We faced it today and now our compelete business is impacted, and thus disabling the project delete button will help a lot, only empty database is supposed to be deleted...

Add support for monotonic ULID generation

the pgx_ulid (https://github.com/pksunkara/pgx_ulid) extension, which Neon supports, allows you to generate ULID ids that are monotonic (preserves order for ids generated within the same millisecond) with gen_monotonic_ulid(). However, this doesn't work with Neon because it requires the extension to be added to shared_preload_libraries in postgresql.conf (in order to use shared memory and LWLock). Would it be possible for you all to add pgx_ulid to shared_preload_libraries so that gen_monotonic_ulid() is supported?...

optimizing "random_page_cost" parameter

Today I red an article on Medium which claimed Postgres performance could be improved drasticially by optimizing the "random_page_cost" parameter for SSDs: https://medium.com/@rizqimulkisrc/the-hidden-postgresql-setting-that-doubled-query-speed-overnight-72803da1a13e I saw that Neon did not use this optimization. Is there a reason?...

Way to disable this typing animation on AI-generated SQL queries?

I've been using this AI tool for a while now to create SQL queries, but I find it to be really slow with longer queries and can take over a minute just to re-type the prompt and comment out the original query. Not sure if this is because the model itself is slow or some UI animation. Is there any way to speed this up?...

Like before: 5 seconds instead of 60 seconds scale to zero

Most docs incl Neon AI still declare that scale plan comes with a 5 seconds scale to zero. However the true costs drivers are more than 10x higher. This was not communitcated in the pricing change blog post mid August and really feels not fair to the users to chnage such a drastic measure secretly. Please bring back the original 5 seconds....

Bug downloading DB connection env variables via Vercel

Vercel told me to report this here since it seems to be a problem with the integration: My project is connected to a Neon DB with separate branches for preview and production. In the Vercel deployment, this works fine, both environments have their own separate database. However, when I try to run vercel env pull --environment=preview on my local computer, even though it responds with Downloading preview Environment Variables for my-account-name/my-project, the file it downloads actually contains the production DB URL, not the preview one....

More console ui bugs related to pricing changes

The pencil banner in my free account is broken. The badge component is unreadable and I’m not sure if this was intended by both CTAs show the same billing table when i was expecting to see the usage on this account that led to the overage.

Message Limit Hours

Hello, could someone help me? I want to make a backup to my VPS using pg_dump but it tells me "Your account or project has exceeded the compute time quota. Upgrade your plan to increase limits." And on the dashboard it tells me that I have 50 hours available but it doesn't even let me do SQL queries, has anyone managed to solve it? Help Me, thanks 😔...

Add reset_branch MCP tool

We frequently reset development branches. It would be great to allow AI to do this for us using the appropriate MCP tool. Naturally, this tool would only work for unprotected branches.

Separate MCP SQL tool to read and write for added protection

Currently, the run_sql can execute read and write operations. Concerned about the affect that AI queries can have on our production database, even when reviewing tool calls, it would be great to have the run_sql tool separated into run_sql_write and run_sql_read or something similar. This would allow our team to confidently run queries without concern about changing data.

Idea: backup cadence

Right now, we can select the duration of backups. However, periodic backups with less frequency can go back further for the same amount of data. e.g. what if we could do something like this (in a custom/configurable way, concurrently with each other): * for the most recent 1 hour, back up all commits separately * from 1 to 24 hours back from present, back up a snapshot hourly * back up 1 snapshot per day for the last 30 days...

Multiple Tables on Neon Website

Would love a way of having multiple tables open in like a split view. Maybe next to the open in sub view have an open in split view? It would be squishy so maybe auto collapse both side menus
