SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Developers working with Prisma ORM need accurate, current guidance on CLI commands like init, generate, migrate, db push, and studio, including correct flags, configuration via prisma.config.ts, and safe production migration workflows. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Command Reference: Covers the full Prisma CLI surface including init, generate, migrate dev/deploy/reset/status/diff/resolve, db pull/push/seed/execute, dev, studio, validate, format, debug, and mcp. - Workflow Guidance: Explains when to use db push versus migrate dev, how to run migrate deploy safely in CI/CD, and how to recover from failed migrations with migrate resolve. - Use Case: When setting up a new project, follow the init reference to bootstrap prisma/schema.prisma and prisma.config.ts, start a local database with prisma dev, then create and apply your first migration with migrate dev. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to show how to create and apply a named Prisma migration and then regenerate the Prisma Client.

Frequently Asked Questions about prisma-cli

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create and apply a Prisma migration in development?▼

Run prisma migrate dev --name your_migration_name to generate and apply a migration from schema changes. It uses a shadow database for drift detection, and you should run prisma generate afterward to refresh the client.

What is the difference between prisma db push and prisma migrate dev?▼

db push syncs the schema directly without creating migration files or history, making it ideal for prototyping and MongoDB. migrate dev creates tracked migration files with rollback capability and is the correct choice for team development.

How do I apply Prisma migrations in production or CI/CD?▼

Use prisma migrate deploy, which applies pending migrations without prompts, drift detection, or a shadow database. Run prisma migrate status first to verify state, and never use migrate dev in production.

Does Prisma CLI work with Bun runtime?▼

Yes, but you must run commands with bunx --bun, for example bunx --bun prisma generate. Without the --bun flag, the CLI falls back to Node.js because of its shebang.

How do I fix a failed Prisma migration in production?▼

Resolve the underlying issue, then run prisma migrate resolve --rolled-back <migration_name> to mark it as failed, or --applied if it actually succeeded. After resolving, re-run prisma migrate deploy.

When should I not use prisma db push?▼

Avoid db push in production, in team environments needing trackable changes, and whenever you need rollback capability. Use migrate dev and migrate deploy instead, since db push keeps no migration history.
