Custom Resource

In Alchemy, a Resource is “just a function”. This makes it super easy to generate resources for your use-cases using Agentic IDEs like Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, etc.

Cursorrules

To start generating resources, copy Alchemy’s .cursorrules into your repo

Note

All of Alchemy’s “built-in” resouces are generated this way, so it is tried and tested.

Simple Prompt Example

As an example, let’s show how easy it is to generate a resource for Neon’s famous serverless Database Resource.

It usually doesn’t take much to get 90% of the way there - a simple prompt with a link to the API docs is a good start:

Create a Resource for managing a Neon Database See: https://api-docs.neon.tech/reference/createprojectbranchdatabase

This will generate the Resource implementation and tests.
