# Prisma CLI Reference

Complete reference for all Prisma CLI commands. This skill provides guidance on command usage, options, and best practices for current Prisma releases.

## When to Apply

Reference this skill when:
- Setting up a new Prisma project (`prisma init`)
- Generating Prisma Client (`prisma generate`)
- Running database migrations (`prisma migrate`)
- Managing database state (`prisma db push/pull`)
- Using local development database (`prisma dev`)
- Debugging Prisma issues (`prisma debug`)

## Rule Categories by Priority

| Priority | Category | Impact | Prefix |
|----------|----------|--------|--------|
| 1 | Setup | HIGH | `init` |
| 2 | Generation | HIGH | `generate` |
| 3 | Development | HIGH | `dev` |
| 4 | Database | HIGH | `db-` |
| 5 | Migrations | CRITICAL | `migrate-` |
| 6 | Utility | MEDIUM | `studio`, `validate`, `format`, `debug`, `mcp` |

## Command Categories

| Category | Commands | Purpose |
|----------|----------|---------|
| Setup | `init` | Bootstrap new Prisma project |
| Generation | `generate` | Generate Prisma Client |
| Validation | `validate`, `format` | Schema validation and formatting |
| Development | `dev` | Local Prisma Postgres for development |
| Database | `db pull`, `db push`, `db seed`, `db execute` | Direct database operations |
| Migrations | `migrate dev`, `migrate deploy`, `migrate reset`, `migrate status`, `migrate diff`, `migrate resolve` | Schema migrations |
| Utility | `studio`, `mcp`, `version`, `debug` | Development and AI tooling |

## Quick Reference

### Project Setup

```bash
# Initialize new project (creates prisma/ folder and prisma.config.ts)
prisma init

# Initialize with specific database
prisma init --datasource-provider postgresql
prisma init --datasource-provider mysql
prisma init --datasource-provider sqlite

# Initialize with Prisma Postgres (cloud)
prisma init --db

# Initialize with an example model
prisma init --with-model
```

### Client Generation

```bash
# Generate Prisma Client
prisma generate

# Watch mode for development
prisma generate --watch

# Generate specific generator only
prisma generate --generator client
```

### Bun Runtime

When using Bun, always add the `--bun` flag so Prisma runs with the Bun runtime (otherwise it falls back to Node.js because of the CLI shebang):

```bash
bunx --bun prisma init
bunx --bun prisma generate
```

### Local Development Database

```bash
# Start local Prisma Postgres
prisma dev

# Start with specific name
prisma dev --name myproject

# Start in background (detached)
prisma dev --detach

# List all local instances
prisma dev ls

# Stop instance
prisma dev stop myproject

# Remove instance data
prisma dev rm myproject
```

### Database Operations

```bash
# Pull schema from existing database
prisma db pull

# Push schema to database (no migrations)
prisma db push

# Seed database
prisma db seed

# Execute raw SQL
prisma db execute --file ./script.sql
```
