We’re building some really amazing stuff here. Sync for Neon is going to be big! 🔥
I’m very excited about this. Coming next to the Neon backend: realtime.
Sync is incredibly hard to get right - especially if the goal is to make it great to work with, support as many database query use cases as possible, and scale well.
Sync coming to Neon was probably obvious to many after our announcement that the Electric team is joining Databricks but we can finally announce it officially today!
The Electric team is building sync for Neon. I asked @thruflo about joining Databricks and their first few weeks at the company: neon.com/blog/electrifying-n…

The @neondatabase team are all in London this week, and we're hosting a meet-up this evening.
Come join us to talk about, anything dev/ai, all the new features of Neon, along with maybe a sneak peek of something new.

The Neon backend is GA. A complete set of primitives for apps and agents built around the database, with open standards, no lock-in, and branching-first by design.
Starting with: Lakebase Postgres, Object Storage, Functions, Managed Better Auth, and AI Gateway. More to come.

PGlite + real-time sync have emerged as key primitives in an era where millions of apps are deployed by agents.
We’re excited to announce @ElectricSQL is joining team Neon at Databricks to build the world's most advanced Postgres backend platform.

Very happy to be joining @databricks as they acquired @ElectricSQL! This is an exciting opportunity to build the databases and agents of the future 🐘✨
Excited to share that we've acquired ElectricSQL, the team behind PGlite. Agents need super fast Postgres and this team built an amazing WASM (WebAssembly) implementation of postgres that runs in your browser, but can sync back with Postgres instances asynchronously. Exactly what blazing fast AI agents today need. Excited to supercharge our 𝐋𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐬 offering with these capabilities.

This is Electric Circuits: a new primitive that turns any static database query into a live one — fine-grained reactivity, end to end, from Postgres to your app.
Built on DBSP and @DurableStreams

Your sessions live on one laptop, inside one agent. Your teammate uses a different one. No way to collaborate.
So I built Capi: share a session as a URL, resume it from any machine, in Claude Code or Codex.

Sharing a session is great for research. But real work has code too. Capi hooks sessions into git: every commit is a checkpoint. Resume a teammate's session at any commit — session state + code line up automatically.

Agent sessions are append-only logs, a perfect match for @ElectricSQL's @DurableStreams. Just had to write the agent-agnostic session protocol on top.
Try it yourself — it's open source: github.com/kevin-dp/agent-se…

Multi-session/connection support for PGlite landing soon! 🚀
We have a POC that passes almost all the Postgres regression tests:
- Concurrent connections
- Parallel scans
- Locks, cancellation & notify
This has been a major ask & we're getting close!
Draft PR with details in 🧵

I've been writing a @DurableStreams server in Rust to see how fast it can be.
It reaches nearly a million appends per second on a single 4 vCPU box — an order of magnitude faster than current reference server 🧵

PGlite has passed 10 million weekly npm downloads 🤯
On our blog we spills the beans on what’s driving the growth, and how its used for AI apps, dev tools, sandboxes, CLIs, and test suites from incredible teams like @Prisma, @supabase, @Firebase, @Netlify and @awscloud. 🔗🧵

Official Tanstack DB collection adapter from Supabase is here!
It connects queries, mutations, and Realtime subscriptions so your UI stays in sync with Postgres!
Try it out today: npm i @supabase-labs/tanstack-db

Realtime audio + collaborative Yjs editing + multiple agents working together in one live document 🤯
This is the kind of agent UX that only works when sync, durability, and coordination are built in from the start.
Built with @ElectricSQL Agents 🚀🎉

Flue from @Cloudflare is now based on our @DurableStreams protocol!
Just Shipped: Flue 1.0 Beta
Flue is the TypeScript framework for building the next generation of agents, designed around an open agent harness with zero LLM lock-in. It’s like Astro, for agents.
Flue 1.0 has been redesigned around three core primitives:
🔁 Workflows — structured automations designed for background work, where your code drives the agent from start to finish.
🧭 Agents (New!) — autonomous, stateful loops where the model drives itself to complete a given task.
📡 Channels (New!) — connect agents to Slack, GitHub, Linear, Discord, Teams, and more. Flue handles the boilerplate for you.
Everything shares the same durable foundation, powered internally by Pi, Vite, and Durable Streams. Deploy anywhere, use any LLM, and recover running agents across restarts and downtime.
We’ve talked to a lot of teams building agents, and keep hearing the same thing: getting to production is hard work. We built Flue to help change that.
Flue 1.0 Beta is available today. Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Electric Agents 0.6 is out!
0.6 rounds out what we launched in May:
• Long-lived entities with StreamDB state
• Spawn, fork, send, wake, signal, schedule
• Local and remote agent runners
• Desktop + mobile apps built on core APIs
• PG sync triggers, MCP servers, webhook sources
The ecosystem is converging on our thesis: the agent is the log. Electric Agents paints the picture for what is built on top.

Every major AI platform has now shipped managed agents. On the same sandbox-based architecture.
That architecture is wrong. Managed agents don't belong in sandboxes. They belong in functions 🧵👇
