prisma format

Formats your Prisma schema file.

Command

prisma format [options]

What It Does

  • Fixes formatting (indentation, spacing)
  • Adds missing back-relations (e.g., adds the other side of a relation)
  • Adds missing relation arguments (e.g., fields, references)
  • Sorts fields and attributes (opinionated)

Options

| Option | Description |

|--------|-------------|

| --schema | Path to schema file |

| --config | Custom path to your Prisma config file |

Examples

Format default schema

prisma format

Format specific schema

prisma format --schema=./custom/schema.prisma

Behavior

prisma format modifies the file in place. It is equivalent to "Prettier for Prisma schemas" but also has semantic understanding to fix/add missing schema definitions.

Use in Editor

Most Prisma editor extensions (VS Code, WebStorm) run prisma format automatically on save. This command is useful for:

  • CI pipelines (check formatting)
  • CLI-based workflows
  • Fixing large schema refactors

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take prisma/prisma-cli-format from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
