Next-generation ORM for Node.js & TypeScript supporting PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, SQLite, MongoDB and CockroachDB.
https://github.com/prisma/prismaSkip the context switching. This MCP server brings Prisma's full toolkit directly into Claude, giving you type-safe database operations without leaving your conversation.
You know the drill: you're architecting a new feature, discussing schema changes with Claude, then constantly alt-tabbing to run prisma generate, check your models, or prototype queries. Every context switch breaks your flow and forces you to re-explain your database structure.
The Prisma MCP server eliminates this friction by putting Prisma Client, Migrate, and Studio capabilities directly in your AI conversations. Now Claude can inspect your schema, generate type-safe queries, create migrations, and even help debug database issues—all without you leaving the chat.
Schema Evolution Made Conversational
Ask Claude to analyze your current schema and suggest optimizations. It can read your prisma/schema.prisma, understand your relationships, and propose changes—then generate the actual migration files on the spot.
// Claude can read this schema and suggest improvements
model User {
id Int @id @default(autoincrement())
email String @unique
posts Post[]
profile Profile?
}
Live Query Generation and Testing Instead of explaining your data structure repeatedly, Claude can directly query your schema to write accurate, type-safe Prisma queries. Need to find all users with unpublished posts? Claude generates the exact query syntax without guesswork.
Migration Planning and Review Planning a schema change? Claude can preview the migration, identify potential data loss, and suggest safer alternatives—all by directly reading your current schema and proposed changes.
Database Debugging in Context Hit a weird query performance issue? Claude can examine your schema, understand your indexes, and suggest optimizations while seeing the actual structure of your data models.
Rapid Prototyping Sessions You're sketching out a new feature with complex relationships. Instead of breaking flow to set up test queries, Claude generates working Prisma Client code, creates sample data, and even suggests database indexes—all while staying in the design conversation.
Schema Refactoring Confidence Need to normalize a table or change relationships? Claude analyzes your current schema, identifies all affected relations, generates the migration script, and warns about potential breaking changes in your existing queries.
Onboarding and Code Review New team members can ask Claude to explain your database architecture directly from your schema file. It can generate example queries, explain relationships, and create documentation—all from the actual source of truth.
Performance Optimization Deep Dives
Claude can examine your models, identify N+1 query opportunities, suggest include and select optimizations, and even propose schema changes for better performance—all based on your actual data structure.
The server connects directly to your existing Prisma setup. No configuration changes, no additional dependencies. If you're already using Prisma, you're ready to go.
Your existing prisma/schema.prisma becomes readable by Claude. Your .env configuration works as-is. Your migration history remains intact. The MCP server operates alongside your normal Prisma workflow, not as a replacement.
Whether you're architecting microservices, building full-stack applications, or optimizing existing database layers, this MCP server fits your workflow. It's particularly powerful for teams using Prisma with Next.js, Express, or any TypeScript backend where type safety is critical.
The server respects your existing toolchain. Use it for exploration and planning, then execute changes through your normal development process. It's like having a database-aware pair programmer who never forgets your schema structure.
Ready to stop explaining your database structure in every conversation? The Prisma MCP server makes your AI assistant as familiar with your data models as you are.
