Prisma Orm V7 Skills

This is your reference card for Prisma ORM 7's breaking changes. The upgrade is significant: it's now ESM-only, requires driver adapters for all database connections, moves configuration to a new prisma.config.ts file, and changes where the client generates. The middleware API is gone in favor of extensions, and conveniences like auto-running generate and seed after migrations are removed. If you're upgrading from v6 or helping Claude generate Prisma code, this skill keeps the model grounded in what actually changed. MongoDB users stay on v6 for now.

Prisma is now ESM

Prisma ORM ships as ES modules.
Set "type": "module" in package.json (or migrate your project to ESM).
TypeScript projects must compile/resolve ESM (guide example: module: ESNext, target: ES2023, moduleResolution: node).
