> Summary: The Neon CLI `neon neon-auth` command manages Managed Better Auth on a database branch from the terminal. Use `enable`, `status`, and `disable` to provision, inspect, or remove Managed Better Auth, and the `oauth-provider` subcommands to add, update, or delete Google, GitHub, and Vercel OAuth providers. The `domain` subcommands manage trusted redirect domains, including `allow-localhost` settings for local development. The `config` subcommands cover email and password authentication, the email provider, the organization plugin, and webhooks, while `plugins` and `user` let you inspect plugin configurations and manage auth users.

# Neon CLI command: neon-auth

Manage Managed Better Auth from the CLI

The `neon-auth` command manages [Managed Better Auth](https://neon.com/docs/auth/overview) on a database branch from the terminal. You can enable or disable Managed Better Auth, configure OAuth providers, trusted domains, email settings, and webhooks, and manage auth users.

Requires neon 2.23.0 or later. Check your version with `neon --version`.

Subcommands: [config](https://neon.com/docs/cli/neon-auth#config), [disable](https://neon.com/docs/cli/neon-auth#disable), [domain](https://neon.com/docs/cli/neon-auth#domain), [enable](https://neon.com/docs/cli/neon-auth#enable), [oauth-provider](https://neon.com/docs/cli/neon-auth#oauth-provider), [plugins](https://neon.com/docs/cli/neon-auth#plugins), [status](https://neon.com/docs/cli/neon-auth#status), [user](https://neon.com/docs/cli/neon-auth#user)

If `--project-id` or `--branch` are omitted, the CLI resolves them from your [context file](https://neon.com/docs/cli/set-context), auto-selects when there is only one option, and prompts otherwise.
