neo4j-gds-skill

neo4j-gds-skill is a skill for Claude Code from neo4j-contrib/neo4j-skills. It costs 206 tokens per session (5,422 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for running Neo4j Graph Data Science algorithms through its Python client or Cypher commands. Neo4j is a database designed for connected data, and graph algorithms find patterns in those connections.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running PageRank, community detection, similarity, path, clustering, nearest-neighbor, and embedding algorithms, then streaming, changing, or writing their results.
Why use it?
It provides guidance for choosing graph projections, operation modes, and memory checks before running analyses on a Neo4j database with the GDS plugin.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

neo4j-gds-skill scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 7d ago.

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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 473 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

When to Use

  • Running GDS algorithms against embedded GDS plugin through Python client (graphdatascience)
  • Running GDS algorithms through CALL gds.* Cypher procedures
  • Aura Pro, self-managed Neo4j, local Neo4j, or offline DBMS with GDS plugin installed
  • Projecting named in-memory graphs, running centrality/community/similarity/path/embedding algorithms
  • Chaining algorithms via mutate mode; building FastRP → KNN pipelines
  • Writing node embeddings for Neo4j vector indexes / structural similarity search
  • Memory estimation before large graph operations

When NOT to Use

  • Aura Graph Analytics Sessions / AGA / GdsSessions / AuraGraphDataScience → neo4j-aura-graph-analytics-skill
  • AuraDB Cypher API with { memory: ... } or { sessionId: ... } → neo4j-aura-graph-analytics-skill
  • Cypher query authoring → neo4j-cypher-skill
  • Driver/connection setup → neo4j-driver-python-skill
  • GraphRAG retrieval → neo4j-graphrag-skill
  • Creating/querying vector indexes over written embeddings → neo4j-vector-index-skill
Context Use
Aura Pro with GDS plugin This skill
Self-managed/local/offline Neo4j with GDS plugin This skill
AuraDB serverless analytics session neo4j-aura-graph-analytics-skill
Self-managed Neo4j attached to AGA session neo4j-aura-graph-analytics-skill
Non-Neo4j data source neo4j-aura-graph-analytics-skill

Pre-flight

Use only with embedded GDS plugin.

from graphdatascience import GraphDataScience

gds = GraphDataScience("neo4j+s://xxx.databases.neo4j.io", auth=("neo4j", "pw"))   # AuraDS; aura_ds auto-derived
gds = GraphDataScience("bolt://localhost:7687", auth=("neo4j", "password"))
print(gds.server_version())
RETURN gds.version() AS gds_version

GDS plugin unavailable: client raises GdsNotFound at construction; Cypher raises Unknown function 'gds.version'. AuraDB serverless analytics → neo4j-aura-graph-analytics-skill. Self-managed/local → install or enable GDS plugin.

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.
