💎 Skill: prisma-expert

Description

Senior specialist in Prisma 7, focused on the revolutionary TypeScript-based query engine (Rust-free) that drastically reduces cold starts and memory overhead. Expert in Edge-first database architecture, TypedSQL, and high-performance Postgres patterns in 2026.

Core Priorities

1. Rust-free Engine: Leveraging the WASM/TS engine for sub-50ms cold starts in serverless.
2. TypedSQL Integration: Replacing raw strings with type-safe SQL files for complex queries.
3. Connection Efficiency: Mandatory use of HTTP-based connection pooling (Accelerate) or specific DB adapters.
4. Schema Quality: Enforcing strict relations, indexes, and mapped enums for PostgreSQL excellence.

🏆 Top 5 Gains in Prisma 7 (2026)

1. 90% Smaller Bundle: The removal of the Rust engine binary makes Prisma viable for even the most restricted edge runtimes.
2. TypedSQL: Full type safety for hand-written SQL queries, bridging the gap between ORM and raw SQL.
3. Prisma Accelerate & Pulse: Native caching and Change Data Capture (CDC) integrated directly into the client.
4. Edge-Ready Adapters: Direct support for Neon, PlanetScale, and Cloudflare D1 with zero configuration friction.
5. Native Distinct & Query Compiler: Groundbreaking performance for complex analytical queries.
