Directory Update Log¶
2026-10-22¶
- Update: NEON API token, Prototype datasets and the home page — NEON Data API 0.12.0 (October 2026) requires a token for prototype dataset files (
/prototype/data/...); without oneneon_get_prototype_datasetleaves the files out andneon_download_files(prototype_uuid=...)returnsauth_required. - Update: Tool reference regenerated for the new prototype token wording.
2026-09-11¶
- Creation: Sync downloads to CyVerse — install GoCommands, log in with
gocmd init, a one-way hourlygocmd syncscript (no--delete,.DS_Storecleanup, lock and log), launchd and cron schedules, and what the sync does not carry (deletions, tags, MESA history); linked from Availability and data files. - Update: NEON API token — step-by-step token creation (account sign-up, My Account, GET API TOKEN, Copy, disabling or deleting a token);
NEON_TOKENas the variable to use, withNEON_MCP_NEON__API_TOKENas an override andNEON_API_TOKENno longer read; loading.envfiles; checking the token withneon-mcp --check(tokenAccepted) and what a rejected token does. - Update: Quickstart, Clients, Configuration and Testing — token naming aligned with the NEON API token page; live tests load the token from
.envwithuv run --env-file.

- Creation: Getting started pages Install neon-mcp, Quickstart, Clients and Configuration (its settings table generated by
scripts/gen_config_reference.py). - Creation: Tools section: the generated Tool reference (
scripts/gen_tools_reference.py) and eleven family pages from products to resources and prompts. - Creation: MCP protocol (MCP 2026-07-28 conformance, Transports), Deploy (Hosted HTTP deployment, Security) and Develop (Architecture, Adding a tool, Testing, Contributing) sections.
- Update: NEON API token — the
NEON_TOKEN/NEON_API_TOKENfallbacks, the TLS-gatedX-API-Tokenheader for hosted servers, the three token-only tools; removed a command-line token flag that the server does not provide. - Update: Citing NEON data — citation wording aligned with the
neon://guide/citing-neon-datatemplates thatneon_get_citationrenders. - Creation: Established the neon-mcp documentation bundle (OKF v0.2): root index, this log, the Zensical site configuration, the OKF validator, the
llms.txtgenerator and the post-build agent surface (Markdown mirror,okf:*head metadata,robots.txt). - Creation: Getting started section with NEON API token — why the data endpoints need a token, how to obtain one, how neon-mcp reads it, and the rate limits with and without it.
- Creation: About section with For AI agents, Citing NEON data and License.
