Summary

Adds a comprehensive cookbook guide for building AI-powered database development workflows using Continue CLI with Prisma MCP.

What's Included

New Documentation

  • Prisma MCP Database Development Cookbook ()
    • Complete guide for schema design, migrations, and database management with AI
    • Pre-built agent setup (Quick Start) and manual configuration options
    • Real-world use cases: multi-tenancy, full-text search, audit logging
    • GitHub Actions workflow for automated database health monitoring
    • Security best practices and troubleshooting guide

Navigation Updates

  • Added cookbook to docs/docs.json navigation
  • Added entry to docs/guides/overview.mdx guide list

Key Features

The cookbook teaches developers to:

  • ✅ Design database schemas with AI assistance using natural language
  • ✅ Generate and apply Prisma migrations automatically
  • ✅ Create realistic seed data for development
  • ✅ Launch Prisma Studio for visual database management
  • ✅ Set up automated database health checks via GitHub Actions

Structure

Follows the established cookbook pattern:

  1. What You'll Build - Clear outcome description
  2. What You'll Learn - 3-4 specific learning objectives
  3. Prerequisites - Required tools and setup
  4. Workflow Options - Pre-built agent (recommended) vs. manual setup
  5. Step-by-step guide - Schema design → Migrations → Seeding → Monitoring
  6. Advanced use cases - Real-world scenarios with example prompts
  7. Resources - Links to relevant documentation

Design Decisions

CLI-Only Focus

  • Removed VS Code-specific configuration (all cookbooks are CLI-only)
  • Simplified MCP setup to match Supabase cookbook pattern
  • Emphasizes using the pre-built agent as the recommended path

Consistency with Other Cookbooks

  • Follows the same structure as Supabase, GitHub, and other MCP cookbooks
  • Uses consistent Mintlify components (Card, Info, Warning, Tip, Steps, Tabs)
  • Maintains the same tone and style throughout

AI Safety Emphasis

  • Highlights Prisma's built-in safety guardrails for destructive operations
  • Recommends testing in development environments first
  • Includes security best practices section

Testing

  • Verify all links work correctly
  • Ensure navigation in docs.json is correct
  • Test code examples and commands
  • Review Mintlify rendering

- Added Local PostgreSQL setup tab as alternative to Prisma Postgres
- Updated manual setup to use Continue Hub agent YAML config
- Fixed agent install command to use quoted agent name
