Prisma Postgres Setup

Procedural skill that guides you through provisioning a new Prisma Postgres database via the Management API and connecting it to a local project.

When to Apply

Use this skill when:

• Setting up a new Prisma Postgres database for a project
• Creating a Prisma Postgres project and connecting it locally
• Obtaining a connection string for Prisma Postgres
• Provisioning a database via the Management API (not the Console UI)

Do not use this skill when:

• Setting up CI/CD preview databases — use prisma-postgres-cicd
• Building multi-tenant database provisioning into an app — use prisma-postgres-integrator
• Working with a database that already exists and is connected (schema/migration tasks are standard Prisma CLI)
