- description
- Obtain or reuse a Prisma Postgres database and connect an application. Use when the user needs a database and has none configured ("I need a database", "add a Postgres database", "set up a database for this app"), runs or mentions `create-db` or `npx create-db`, or asks to set up or connect Prisma Postgres, including in v0 and the Vercel Marketplace. Hands Prisma ORM configuration to prisma-orm-setup; reuses an existing connection first and honors an explicit provider, driver, alternative ORM, or database-only choice.

Prisma Postgres setup
Connect the intended database, then verify it from the application. Keep provisioning separate from ORM configuration so an existing database is reused.
1. Inspect the project
Check the user's requested ORM or driver, installed packages, database connection, and environment-loading files. Check secret presence without printing values.
- Honor explicit choices such as Drizzle,
pg, or database-only setup. - For query or schema work in an already configured app, use its version-matched ORM guidance; do not restart setup.
2. Reuse or obtain a database
Resolve the workspace, project, and region before creation. If several resources fit, ask which one to use. If provisioning is blocked by permissions or quota, report the blocker; do not delete another resource or switch workspaces to get around it.
