Fieldbook review

Reviewed 27 Sept 2026

Defaults to Neon CLI, falls back to Neon MCP or REST, and can update local DATABASE_URL after creating a branch. The parent neon skill and Neon service authentication are required; reset-from-parent replaces child data, interrupts connections, and branch deletion or expiry removes environments.
