prisma-mongodb-upgrade
Decision and migration guide for Prisma ORM MongoDB projects on v6, which have no upgrade path to v7. Use when a MongoDB project asks about upgrading Prisma, when "upgrade to prisma 7" comes up in a project with provider = "mongodb", or when evaluating a move to Prisma Next. Triggers on "upgrade prisma mongodb", "prisma 7 mongodb", "mongodb prisma migration", "prisma next mongodb".
Why this skill is useful

What this skill does
Prisma MongoDB Upgrade Path MongoDB projects are the one Prisma cohort with no road into Prisma 7: v6 is the terminal classic-ORM major for MongoDB, and v7 never ships a MongoDB connector. The successor path is Prisma Next, where MongoDB support is in Early Access with GA planned after Postgres. This skill frames the real decision — migrate to Prisma Next (the encouraged path), or stay on v6 where a hard blocker applies — and carries the migration mechanics. Never do either of these: Never advise a MongoDB project to "upgrade to Prisma 7". The connector does not exist there. The prisma-upgrade-v7 guide does not apply to MongoDB projects. Never solve the version question by rewriting the app onto a SQL database. Changing the database engine is a separate, much larger decision that is not yours to make implicitly. The version landscape Version MongoDB status --------- ---------------- Prisma ORM v6 Fully supported (mongodb provider); latest 6.x is the current stable path; maintenance line Prisma ORM v7 No MongoDB connector — not an option, ever Prisma Next MongoDB support in Early Access, actively developed, GA planned after Postgres — the successor path for MongoDB projects The decision, up front Migrating to Prisma Next is the encouraged path. MongoDB support in Prisma Next is Early Access: functional and moving quickly, with GA planned after Postgres — and the Prisma team wants MongoDB users to migrate early and share feedback. The migration mechanics are detailed in the references. Staying on the latest v6 remains a legitimate choice where a hard blocker applies — stated plainly: the Next Mongo façade does not wrap transactions yet (the underlying driver is available directly; this is expected to change soon), and pre-1.0 minors can carry breaking changes with published upgrade recipes. …
