SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? MongoDB projects on Prisma v6 have no upgrade path to Prisma 7 because v7 ships no MongoDB connector, leaving teams without clear guidance on whether to migrate to Prisma Next or stay on v6. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Decision Framework: Provides a blocker-check decision table for choosing between migrating to Prisma Next (Early Access MongoDB support) or deliberately staying on the latest v6 line. - API and Schema Mapping: Maps v6 client calls, raw queries, transactions, and schema concepts (ObjectId, composite types, storage names) to their Prisma Next equivalents. - Cutover Verification: Supplies a no-data-moves checklist covering index parity, validator impact, transaction inventory, and staged read-only soak before cutover. - Use Case: A team on Prisma 6 with MongoDB asks about upgrading to Prisma 7; the Skill explains v7 is impossible for MongoDB, greps the codebase for $transaction usage, checks the MongoDB server version, and plans the Prisma Next migration. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to evaluate whether your Prisma v6 MongoDB project should migrate to Prisma Next and to check the codebase for migration blockers.

FAQPage Schema
Can I upgrade Prisma 6 MongoDB to Prisma 7?

No, Prisma 7 has no MongoDB connector, so v6 is the terminal classic-ORM major for MongoDB projects. The forward path is Prisma Next, where MongoDB support is in Early Access with GA planned after Postgres.

How do I migrate a Prisma MongoDB project to Prisma Next?

Author a Next contract describing your existing collections, then run the plan, migrate, verify, and sign lifecycle against the same database with no data movement. Map v6 client calls to Next equivalents, replace raw queries with the mongoRaw lane, and run a staged read-only soak before cutover.

Does Prisma Next support MongoDB transactions?

The Prisma Next Mongo façade does not wrap db.transaction yet, but the underlying mongodb driver is a user-supplied peer dependency and fully accessible. Multi-document atomicity works today via driver sessions using startSession and withTransaction on a replica set.

What MongoDB server version does Prisma Next require?

Prisma Next's Mongo target requires MongoDB 8.0 or later and mongodb@^7 installed as a user-supplied peer dependency. Prisma v6 tolerated older server versions, so verify the server version before planning a migration.

When should I stay on Prisma v6 instead of migrating?

Stay on the latest v6 line when your codebase relies on $transaction and you cannot plan driver-session equivalents, or when your team cannot absorb pre-1.0 breaking changes between Next minors. Pin the latest 6.x packages, track security advisories, and re-evaluate when Next's MongoDB support reaches GA.
