prisma-postgres

A guide to creating and managing Prisma Postgres databases through the Prisma Console, command-line tools, or management APIs. Prisma Postgres is a hosted PostgreSQL database service.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for creating temporary databases, linking a project to an existing database, managing databases with service tokens or OAuth, and using the TypeScript or JavaScript management SDK.
Why use it?
It brings the setup steps, connection details, temporary database options, and authentication rules into one reference.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

prisma-postgres scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Prisma Postgres

Guidance for creating, managing, and integrating Prisma Postgres across interactive and programmatic workflows.

When to Apply

Reference this skill when:

  • Setting up Prisma Postgres from Prisma Console
  • Provisioning instant temporary databases with create-db
  • Linking an existing local project with prisma postgres link
  • Managing Prisma Postgres resources via Management API
  • Using @prisma/management-api-sdk in TypeScript/JavaScript
  • Handling claim URLs, connection strings, regions, and auth flows

Rule Categories by Priority

Priority Category Impact Prefix
1 CLI Provisioning CRITICAL create-db-cli
2 Management API CRITICAL management-api
3 Management API SDK HIGH management-api-sdk
4 Console and Connections HIGH console-and-connections

Quick Reference

  • create-db-cli - instant databases and current CLI flags (--ttl, --copy, --quiet, --open)
  • management-api - service token and OAuth API workflows
  • management-api-sdk - typed SDK usage with token storage
  • console-and-connections - Console operations, prisma postgres link, direct TCP connections, and serverless-driver choices

Core Workflows

1. Console-first workflow

Use Prisma Console for manual setup and operations:

  • Open https://console.prisma.io
  • Create/select workspace and project
  • Use Studio in the project sidebar to view/edit data
  • Retrieve direct connection details from the project UI

2. Quick provisioning with create-db

Use create-db when you need a database immediately:

npx create-db@latest

Aliases:

npx create-pg@latest
npx create-postgres@latest

For app integrations, you can also use the programmatic API (create() / regions()) from the create-db npm package.

Temporary databases auto-delete after ~24 hours unless claimed.

2b. Persistent databases with the Platform CLI

For databases that belong to a Project (not throwaway create-db databases), use @prisma/cli:

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
