prisma-orm-v7-skills — Claude Code skill: Prisma 7 upgrade
This skill guides Prisma ORM 7 upgrades and troubleshooting, with a checklist of changes to account for before regenerating Prisma Client.
npx skills add gocallum/nextjs16-agent-skills --skill prisma-orm-v7-skills -a claude-codeWhat prisma-orm-v7-skills does
The skill covers Prisma ORM 7 migration requirements, including ESM, the prisma-client generator with an explicit output, and CLI settings in prisma.config.ts. It also explains that client creation needs a driver adapter and that environment variables must be loaded explicitly. Prisma CLI no longer loads .env files on its own.
Generation and seeding are now explicit steps: prisma migrate dev and prisma db push do not generate the client automatically. The skill also addresses replacing prisma.$use(...) with client extensions and handling Prisma Accelerate URLs. MongoDB is not supported in Prisma ORM 7, so an application that depends on it needs to stay on version 6.
What it helps with
- check a project for Prisma ORM 7 migration requirements
- update the client generator and generated import path
- move datasource settings into
prisma.config.ts - find why a migration did not generate Prisma Client
- adapt middleware and seeding workflows for version 7
Example prompts for the agent
- Review my project for Prisma ORM 7 migration issues and outline the required changes.
- Explain how to update the Prisma Client generator and imports for version 7.
- Why did
prisma migrate devleave Prisma Client ungenerated, and what should I run?
