Neo4j Getting-Started Skill

Guide a user or agent from zero to a working Neo4j application by executing the 8 stages below in order.

At the start of each stage: read the corresponding ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/<stage-name>.md file and follow its instructions. Only load the stage you are currently executing — not all at once.

"User" means both a human developer and an autonomous coding agent.

When to Use

New Neo4j project from scratch (local/Docker/Aura)
Full onboarding: zero → DB → model → load → app
Generating synthetic data for demos or dev

When NOT to Use

Cypher authoring on existing project → neo4j-cypher-skill
Driver upgrades / Cypher migration → neo4j-migration-skill
Admin on existing DB (backup, restore, import) → neo4j-cli-tools-skill

Project Structure

All generated code, data, scripts, queries, and notebooks must be written to the working directory so the user can inspect, reuse, and re-run them after the session ends. Never generate output only as text in the conversation — always write it to a file.

Organize files into this layout. Create subdirectories before writing files.

.env                    ← DB credentials (gitignored, loaded by python-dotenv)
aura.env                ← Aura API credentials (gitignored, never overwrite)
progress.md             ← stage-by-stage progress (this skill writes it)
requirements.txt        ← Python dependencies

schema/
  schema.json           ← graph model definition
  schema.cypher         ← DDL: constraints + indexes
  reset.cypher          ← wipe all data (keep schema)

data/
  generate.py           ← synthetic data generator  (DATA_SOURCE=synthetic)
  import.py             ← CSV/file importer          (DATA_SOURCE=csv or relational)
  *.csv                 ← any provided or generated data files

queries/
  queries.cypher        ← validated Cypher query library

scripts/
  provision_aura.py     ← Aura provisioning script (generated during provision stage)

notebook.ipynb          ← app artifact (root — standard jupyter convention)
app.py                  ← app artifact (root — streamlit run app.py)
main.py                 ← app artifact (root — uvicorn main:app)
graphrag_app.py         ← app artifact (root)

Root-level files (.env, requirements.txt, app code) stay at root because tooling expects them there. Everything else goes in the appropriate subfolder.

Progress Tracking

The skill maintains progress.md in the working directory to support resumability.

On startup:

Check if progress.md exists.

If it exists, find the first pending stage:

grep -B1 "^status: pending" progress.md | grep "^###" | head -1

Resume from that stage. Read its context block (the key=value lines beneath the header) to restore DOMAIN, USE_CASE, NEO4J_URI, etc. — do not re-ask the user for information already recorded.
For each completed stage, read every file listed in its files= line before proceeding. These files are the ground truth — do not reconstruct their content from memory.
- schema/schema.json → re-read before model, load, query, or build stages
- queries/queries.cypher → re-read before build stage
- data/generate.py → re-read before import or reset
If progress.md does not exist, start from 0-prerequisites.

On stage completion — update (or create) progress.md:

If the stage's ### section already exists, update status: pending → status: done and append any new key=value lines.
If the section doesn't exist, append it following the format below.

Format:

# Neo4j Getting-Started — Progress
<!-- Resume: grep for "status: pending" to find the next stage -->

### 0-prerequisites
status: done

### 1-context
status: done
DOMAIN=social
USE_CASE=friend recommendations
EXPERIENCE=beginner
DB_TARGET=aura-free
DATA_SOURCE=synthetic
APP_TYPE=notebook
EXEC_METHOD=query-api

### 2-provision
status: done
NEO4J_URI=neo4j+s://abc123.databases.neo4j.io

### 3-model
status: done
labels=Person,Post
relationships=FOLLOWS,POSTED
constraints=2

### 4-load
status: done
nodes=200 Person, 50 Post
relationships=1400 FOLLOWS, 300 POSTED

### 5-explore
status: pending

### 6-query
status: pending

### 7-build
status: pending

Execution Protocol

For each stage:

Announce the stage: "## Stage: <name> — <purpose>"
Read ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/<name>.md
Execute the instructions in that file
Verify the stage's completion condition
Update progress.md with status: done and stage-specific context
Proceed to the next stage (HITL: pause for approval first)

If a stage fails, recover using the error guidance in the stage reference file. Do not skip stages unless the skip condition below explicitly permits it.

Stages

Stages run in the numbered order shown. Each depends on the one before it completing successfully (except where a skip condition applies). Read the linked reference file when entering each stage.

0-prerequisites → 1-context → 2-provision → 3-model → 4-load → 5-explore → 6-query → 7-build

Shared capabilities used across multiple stages:

Cypher execution: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/capabilities/execute-cypher.md (3 options; EXEC_METHOD chosen in context)
Cypher authoring rules: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/capabilities/cypher-authoring.md (or defer to neo4j-cypher-authoring-skill)
MCP configuration: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/capabilities/mcp-config.md (used in prerequisites and build)
Query validation: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/validate_queries.py — batch-validate all queries in one call (used in query)

0 — `prerequisites`

Purpose: Verify and install required CLI tools before doing anything else.
Reference: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/0-prerequisites.md
Completes when: neo4j-mcp binary is reachable; .gitignore has .env entry.
Never skip.

1 — `context`

Purpose: Collect domain, use-case, experience, infrastructure target, data source, and output type. Detect EXEC_METHOD for Cypher execution.
Reference: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/1-context.md
Completes when: DOMAIN, USE_CASE, EXPERIENCE, DB_TARGET, DATA_SOURCE, APP_TYPE, EXEC_METHOD are known.
Skip condition: all variables already provided in conversation context.

2 — `provision`

Purpose: Provision a running Neo4j database and save credentials to .env.
Reference: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/2-provision.md
Completes when: .env exists with NEO4J_URI/USERNAME/PASSWORD/DATABASE; connectivity verified.
Skip condition: DB_TARGET=existing → write .env from user credentials, proceed to 3-model.

3 — `model`

Purpose: Design or discover a graph data model suited to the use-case.
Reference: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/3-model.md
Completes when: schema.json and schema.cypher written.
Skip condition: DATA_SOURCE=demo → use demo schema, proceed to 4-load.
HITL checkpoint (HITL mode only — skip entirely in autonomous mode): show model draft, wait for approval.

4 — `load`

Purpose: Apply schema constraints, then import data (demo, synthetic, CSV, or documents).
Reference: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/4-load.md
Depends on: 3-model (constraints must exist before import).
Completes when: node count ≥ 50; import/ scripts written; reset.cypher written.

5 — `explore`

Purpose: Deliver a visual entry point to the graph — the "it clicks" moment.
Reference: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/5-explore.md
Completes when: browser URL printed to user, or notebook visualization cell added.
Hard gate — never skip.

6 — `query`

Purpose: Generate and validate a Cypher query library for the use-case.
Reference: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/6-query.md
Completes when: queries.cypher has ≥5 queries; ≥2 traversals; ≥3 return results.

7 — `build`

Purpose: Generate a runnable application, dashboard, notebook, or agent integration.
Reference: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/7-build.md
Completes when: artifact exists, passes syntax check, returns non-empty use-case results.

Success Gates (all 7 required)

Gate	Stage	Condition
`db_running`	provision	`driver.verify_connectivity()` succeeds
`model_valid`	model	≥2 node labels, ≥1 rel type, ≥1 constraint in DB
`data_present`	load	`MATCH (n) RETURN count(n)` ≥ 50
`queries_work`	query	≥5 queries; ≥2 traversals; ≥3 return ≥1 result
`graph_visible`	explore	Browser URL or notebook viz delivered to user
`app_generated`	build	Artifact exists, passes syntax, returns non-empty results
`integration_ready`	build	MCP config or agent framework code present (if requested)

Fast Paths

Situation	Action
`DB_TARGET=existing`	Skip `provision`; write `.env` from user creds; go to `model`
`DATA_SOURCE=demo`	Skip custom modeling; use demo schema; jump to `load`
`DB_TARGET=existing` + data present	Skip `provision`, `model`, `load`; introspect schema; go to `explore`

HITL vs Autonomous Mode

HITL (conversational): pause after model for model review; pause after load for data review.

Autonomous (CI-like, all context provided upfront): never pause for approval at any stage; auto-approve all decisions; proceed immediately through all 8 stages; print browser URL to stdout; target ≤15 min from DB running.

How to detect autonomous mode — check at the start of stage 1:

Autonomous if ANY of the following are true:

The initial prompt contains all of: DOMAIN, USE_CASE, EXPERIENCE, DB_TARGET, DATA_SOURCE, APP_TYPE (or equivalent phrasing like "Domain: X, use-case: Y, ...")
The session was started with --auto-approve or similar non-interactive flag
All context variables are already recorded in progress.md (resuming an autonomous run)

HITL if: the user opened a fresh conversation without providing full context upfront.

In autonomous mode: every HITL checkpoint in every stage reference file is automatically skipped. Do not ask for approval. Do not say "does this look right?" Do not pause. Continue to the next step immediately.

Final Summary (deliver after all gates pass)

Step 1 — write README.md to the working directory using the template below. Fill in every <placeholder> from progress.md and the actual generated files. This is a required output — do not skip it.

IMPORTANT — portable commands: All re-run commands in README.md MUST use python3 (never an absolute path like /opt/homebrew/bin/python3.14 or /usr/local/bin/python3). The README is shared

Dependency or permission surface needs review
Permission surface may require sandboxing
Financial research output is not financial advice; require human review before any live investment decision
Reference file naming inconsistency: SKILL.md instructs reading `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/<stage-name>.md` with stage names like `0-prerequisites`, `1-context`, etc., but AGENTS.md lists files like `stage1-provisioning.md`, `stage2-data-modeling.md`. This could cause runtime failures if the agent follows SKILL.md literally.
The skill relies on `CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR` environment variable, which may not be defined in all compatible agents (e.g., Cursor, Windsurf). The compatibility claim 'any-agent-with-bash' might be optimistic without a fallback mechanism.
