What it does

Weft Database is an agent skill from WeaveMindAI/weft. Read when a cloud install needs its database: the user has no Postgres for it, or asks which to use. Gets one that scales to zero (Neon), with the user only signing up and pasting one key, and puts its addresses in the fork's secrets. Part of weft-cloud-install.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Databases. It works with PostgreSQL. The repository describes itself as: A programming language for AI orchestrations.

When your agent uses it

  • Databases work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/weft-database”

Requirements

  • A credential in NEON_API_KEY

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Sign up at https://console.neon.tech/signup. They need no project
  2. Make an API key for their organization: in the Neon console, the

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6e28f31. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • gh
    • jq
    • curl

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • console.neon.tech
    • neon.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • NEON_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Weft Database loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 69 tokens; SKILL.md has 585 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~69
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 585 words (~1,125 tokens).

“A cloud install keeps everything in a Postgres it reaches by address, read from the fork's WEFT_DATABASE_URL secret. Any Postgres works; if its address goes through a pooler, the install also needs a direct address of the same database in…”
