About

# Prisma Compute

Guide agents through Prisma Compute app creation, deployment, operations, and framework-specific deploy readiness.

## Prisma Compute CLI Surface

Use the Prisma Platform CLI for Compute app workflows:

```bash bunx @prisma/cli@latest app deploy --help bunx @prisma/cli@latest app --help bunx @prisma/cli@latest build logs --help bunx create-prisma@latest --help ```

Use `@prisma/cli@latest` for Compute app deployment. Use `create-prisma@latest` for new-project scaffolding.

## Send Feedback and Report CLI Issues

The CLI has a built-in feedback channel. Use it whenever a command crashes (`UNEXPECTED_ERROR`), a failure survives troubleshooting, or the user asks to send feedback to the Prisma team:

```bash bunx @prisma/cli@latest feedback "app deploy crashed: <first error line>" bunx @prisma/cli@latest feedback "love the deploy flow" --email you@example.com ```

Crash output points here on its own: `--json` crash envelopes carry the exact pre-filled command as a `recover` entry in `nextActions` (run it verbatim), and human crash output ends with a `Tell us what happened:` hint. Feedback is anonymous unless `--email` is passed and attaches only the CLI version, node version, and OS platform/arch. Never include secrets, connection URLs, or user data in the message.

## Source-of-Truth Order

Use evidence in this order when deciding what to edit or run:

1. The project's generated scripts and config, especially `prisma.compute.ts`, `compute:deploy`, framework config, and `package.json`. 2. CLI help output from `create-prisma` and `@prisma/cli`. 3. Local installed package code, generated artifacts, and type definitions. 4. Official docs.

## When to Apply

Use this skill for:

- Creating a new app that can deploy to Prisma Compute - Deploying an existing TypeScript app to Prisma Compute - Creating or updating a typed `prisma.compute.ts` deploy config - Deciding whether a framework is Compute-ready - Debugging `create-prisma --deploy`, `compute:deploy`, or `app deploy` - Managing Compute app logs, deployments, environment variables, and domains, and listing platform branches (`branch list`; there are no branch create/remove commands) - Inspecting GitHub/Console build logs and GitHub push-to-deploy status - Running non-interactive deploys with browser auth, multiple stored workspaces, or Prisma service tokens - Switching, selecting, listing, or logging out local Prisma Platform workspaces for `@prisma/cli` - Sending feedback about an unresolvable Compute CLI failure with `@prisma/cli feedback` - Programmatic deployments with `@prisma/compute-sdk` or Management API integrations

## Decision Tree

1. Existing project deployment or redeploy: Read [`references/app-deploy-cli.md`](references/app-deploy-cli.md).

2. Typed Compute config, monorepos, deploy targets, app roots, or build/env defaults: Read [`references/compute-config.md`](references/compute-config.md).

3. Framework-specific build/runtime work: Read [`references/frameworks.md`](references/frameworks.md).

4. New project from a scaffold: Read [`references/create-prisma.md`](references/create-prisma.md).

5. Programmatic deployment, SDKs, APIs, or low-level App/Deployment concepts: Read [`references/sdk-api.md`](references/sdk-api.md).

6. Build, auth, env, deploy, or runtime failures: Read [`references/troubleshooting.md`](references/troubleshooting.md).

## Rules by Priority

| Priority | Category | Impact | Prefix | |----------|----------|--------|--------| | 1 | Command verification | CRITICAL | `verify-` | | 2 | Auth and workspace selection | CRITICAL | `auth-` | | 3 | Framework readiness | CRITICAL | `framework-` | | 4 | Runtime host and port binding | CRITICAL | `runtime-` | | 5 | Typed Compute config | HIGH | `config-` | | 6 | Branch, environment, and database wiring | HIGH | `env-` | | 7 | Deploy operations | HIGH | `deploy-` | | 8 | SDK and API automation | MEDIUM | `sdk-` |

## Quick Rules

### 1. Command Verification

- `verify-help-first` - Use CLI help output to confirm command syntax while working. - `verify-prisma-vs-platform-cli` - Do not assume `prisma app deploy` exists in the ORM CLI; check whether the task should use `@prisma/cli`. - `verify-generated-scripts` - Prefer the generated `compute:deploy` script when a project already has one. - `verify-public-url` - After a real deploy, request the public deployment URL instead of trusting local or readiness-only checks. - `verify-config-support` - Treat `prisma.compute.ts` as the typed Compute config; inspect the project's config and generated scripts before editing or deploying. - `verify-auth-workspace-support` - Use `@prisma/cli auth workspace` commands for local workspace list/use/logout flows.

### 2. Auth and Workspace Selection

- `auth-source-precedence` - A non-empty `PRISMA_SERVICE_TOKEN` is the active auth source for commands and local OAuth workspaces are ignored for execution. If it is set but empty, the CLI should fail instead of falling back
