Agent Skills

Give your AI coding agent up-to-date Prisma knowledge with installable skills

AI coding agents often struggle with Prisma 7 -they generate outdated v6 patterns, hallucinate APIs, and miss breaking changes like ESM-only support and required driver adapters. Prisma Skills fix this by giving your agent accurate, version-specific knowledge it can reference automatically.

Skills are packaged instructions that follow the open Agent Skills format. Once installed, your agent uses them whenever it detects a relevant task -no prompting required.

Install

Add all Prisma skills to your project:

npx skills add prisma/skills

Or install only the ones you need:

npx skills add prisma/skills --skill prisma-client-api

Skills are compatible with any agent that supports the Agent Skills format, including Claude Code, Cursor, and others.
