What is neo4j-aura-agent-skill?

A tool for managing Neo4j Aura Agents, which answer natural-language questions using data stored in an AuraDB graph database.

Use it to create, update, list, delete, deploy, or invoke Aura Agents through REST or MCP, including agents using graph queries or similarity search.

It avoids having to build separate management and access code for creating, configuring, deploying, and calling these agents.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Any agent

npx skills add neo4j-contrib/neo4j-skills --skill neo4j-aura-agent-skill

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/neo4j-contrib/neo4j-skills

Made for: Claude Code.

Or install neo4j-skills, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 30 skills, 1 command.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00158	$0.04550
Opus 5.5	$0.00063	$0.01820
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00032	$0.00910
Haiku 4.5	$0.00016	$0.00455

Security

Grade A, and why

neo4j-aura-agent-skill scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 17d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/fetch_schema.py, scripts/invoke_agent.py, scripts/manage_agent.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 425 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

When to Use

Creating or configuring an Aura Agent on an existing AuraDB instance
Adding/updating tools (CypherTemplate, SimilaritySearch, Text2Cypher) to an agent
Deploying an agent for external access (REST API endpoint or MCP server)
Invoking an agent with natural language queries via REST API
Listing, reading, or deleting existing agents in a project
Generating an evaluation dataset (JSON) to test an agent in the Aura console's Evaluation feature

When NOT to Use

Creating/managing AuraDB instances → neo4j-aura-provisioning-skill
Creating vector indexes → neo4j-vector-index-skill
Running Cypher directly → neo4j-cypher-skill
Building Aura Graph Analytics sessions → neo4j-aura-graph-analytics-skill

What are Aura Agents

GraphRAG agents on top of AuraDB — answer natural language questions via three tool types:

CypherTemplate — parameterized queries for predictable lookups
SimilaritySearch — vector similarity search over a VECTOR index
Text2Cypher — natural language → Cypher for aggregations and discovery

Expose your graph via natural language to users or apps without application code. Accessible as REST or MCP endpoint; single- and multi-turn. For full Cypher control, low-latency lookups, or direct writes — use neo4j-cypher-skill instead.

Prerequisites

Running AuraDB instance with knowledge graph loaded
"Generative AI assistance" enabled in Organization settings
"Aura Agent" toggled on in the project
"Tool authentication" enabled at project/Security level
Project admin access
AURA_CLIENT_ID and AURA_CLIENT_SECRET from console.neo4j.io → Account Settings → API Credentials
AURA_ORG_ID, AURA_PROJECT_ID — see Step 2; AURA_INSTANCE_ID — resolved interactively in Step 2 if not already set
Python env: uv sync in skill directory (or pip install neo4j neo4j-graphrag requests python-dotenv)
.env and schema.json in .gitignore

What ships with it

11 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

neo4j-aura-agent-skill is a skill published in the GitHub repository neo4j-contrib/neo4j-skills (116 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 158 tokens to every session and 4,550 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
