The add-to-existing-project page tells a reader to accept orm init's default schema path, then builds every later step on that path being prisma/contract.prisma:

# What the page says
npx prisma@latest contract infer --output ./prisma/contract.prisma
# then: import { db } from "./prisma/db";

# What orm init actually creates
src/prisma/contract.prisma
src/prisma/db.ts

So contract infer writes a file the config never reads, contract emit emits the untouched starter contract, and the db.ts import fails. A reader who follows the page cannot finish it. That is one of eleven places where the Prisma ORM 8 pages explain something that is not how rc.9 behaves.

What this PR does

It rewrites the sentences and samples on twelve pages whose explanations are wrong, not just their names. It stacks on #8236, which did the mechanical renames; merge that first and review only the eleven commits after it. Still no new pages, no moved pages, no "Prisma 8" to "Prisma ORM" wording change, and the Prisma 6 and 7 trees are untouched. Where removing a false claim left a gap, the fix adds the one true paragraph that fills it and stops; fuller coverage belongs to the restructure we will discuss separately.

What was wrong, in three kinds

Behaviour that changed after the pages were written.

  • migration plan with no origin now refuses with MIGRATION.PLAN_ORIGIN_UNKNOWN (rc.8) instead of planning a CREATE-everything migration, and db init / db update advance the db ref only when --db is omitted. The pages taught the old behaviour and every example passed --db, so a reader's second migration plan hits the refusal. Dev-loop examples now pass --advance-ref db; the pages say why.
  • Middleware has two lifecycles since rc.2 (beforeQuery / interceptQuery / onRow / afterQuery for reads, beforeExecute / interceptExecute / afterExecute for writes). The pages described five hooks including an intercept that does not exist, and the flagship query-logger example only implemented the write hook, so it never logged the read it claimed to log. Also: the lints options had a sixth key that is not accepted, budgets latency was described as unread, and "permissive mode" was described on Postgres, where the client never forwards a mode.
  • Aggregates return numbers since rc.2, with countBigInt / sumBigInt / avgDecimal beside them. The pages said they return strings and told readers to call Number().

Supported things the pages called unsupported.

  • Whole-query raw SQL (db.raw.sql\...`.returnsRow(spec)/.affectedCount()`) has shipped since rc.2; the raw-queries page said it did not exist.
  • 1:1 back-relations, many-to-many include and nested writes through a junction, onDelete / onUpdate, and .variant() discriminator injection all work. The relations and data-modeling pages said they did not and sent readers to the SQL builder.

Samples that fail.

  • The existing-project pages (above), plus: orm init no longer installs skills, .env is a prompt, and inferred Timestamptz columns need the Temporal polyfill before the first read.
  • The data-transform migration example omitted the required rawCodecInferer, so it did not typecheck.
  • The PostgreSQL upsert omitted conflictOn, so it targeted the primary key and inserted a duplicate.
  • A db.prepare() then db.connect() sample threw DRIVER.ALREADY_CONNECTED; closed and double-connect failures are structured codes, shown as plain Error strings.
  • The scalar table lacked Jsonb, Decimal, and Bytes; the extensions page's generic recipe does not work for Supabase and its catalog links led to READMEs with a private install command.

How it was verified

Each commit cites the prisma/orm source lines it was checked against. While implementing, the source overruled two of our own findings, and the pages were left as they were in both cases: migration plan can raise MIGRATION.NO_TARGET after a rollback cycle (the planner does resolve a leaf), and min / max over a DateTime column does type-check at rc.9. An independent review pass over the eleven commits found seven problems, four of them introduced by the rewrite (a --from grammar that listed tokens the offline command rejects, a Json filtering claim that only holds for Jsonb, a raw EXTRACT sample shown decoding to a number when raw projections are not decoded, and a codec id that does not exist); all seven are fixed in the last commit, which cites the source for each.

How to review

One commit per page or page group. Read each page's changed section in full rather than the hunk alone; several fixes remove a claim in one paragraph and adjust a later paragraph that repeated it.

Alternatives considered

  • Write these pages fresh from the proposed new information architecture. Deferred. The restructure is a separate decision; these fixes are needed whichever way it goes and carry over.
  • Add the missing sections now (baseline migration and db ref steps on the existing-project page, a full raw SQL reference, the migration factory list). Rejected for this PR. Each is new content with its own placement question; keeping this PR to corrections keeps it reviewable.
  • Squash into docs: replace removed API names, flags, and paths on the Prisma ORM 8 pages #8236. Rejected. Renames are uniform and quick to check; rewrites need reading. Separate PRs let each be reviewed the way it needs.

Since rc.2 `runtime.execute(plan)` resolves `{ affectedRows }` and rows come
from `runtime.query(plan)`, an `AsyncIterableResult` you await for an array or
iterate with `for await`. The MongoDB client's `db.execute` facade was removed
in the same release, so Mongo plans (reads and writes alike) run through
`(await db.runtime()).query(plan)`. Prepared statements split the same way:
`ps.query(target, params)` for rows, `execute` only for `.affectedCount()`
plans, and `withTransaction`'s `tx` has no `executePrepared`.

rc.7 renamed `.take(n)` and `.skip(n)` on SQL and Mongo ORM collections to
`.limit(n)` and `.offset(n)` and removed the old names, including inside
relation refinements. MongoDB's lower-level pipeline builder keeps `skip()`,

Since 0.17 a migration directory holds `migration.ts`, `ops.json` and
`migration.json` only. Contract snapshots are stored once per migrations root
under `migrations/snapshots/<contract hash>/` as `contract.json` and
`contract.d.ts`, and `migration.ts` imports its bookend contracts from there
with `../../snapshots/<hex>/contract.json` (attributed `{ type: 'json' }`) and
`../../snapshots/<hex>/contract` for the types. Replaced the
`start-contract.json` / `end-contract.json` / `*-contract.d.ts` listings and

0.17 removed the `@db.*` attribute channel: PostgreSQL native types are
written in type position, so `Uuid` is a built-in type name and the
`Uuid = String @db.Uuid` alias no longer parses. The models on the page
already write `id Uuid @id @default(uuid())`, so the alias was redundant as
well as wrong. The "Named types" example now aliases a real type,
`ShortName = VarChar(35)`, and the complete contract uses it on `Post.title`.
No other `@db.` form remains on the page.

… output

One pass over the flags, error codes, command names and sample transcripts
that no longer match rc.9:

- removed `--skip-skills` and `CLI.INIT_SKILL_INSTALL_FAILED` (both retired in
  rc.6, when `orm init` stopped touching skills) from cli/orm-init.mdx,
  (index)/index.mdx, (index)/getting-started.mdx and ai/tools/skills.mdx
- `ref set prod @db` / `ref list` become `migration ref set prod <hash>` /
  `migration ref list` on orm/migrations/the-migration-graph.mdx: the bare
  `ref` group went in rc.5, and `migration ref set` is offline, so `@db`
  resolves to an empty sentinel that is not a graph node
- `cd prisma` after the clone becomes `cd orm`
- hint text `prisma-cli migrate` / `prisma-cli migration status` becomes
  `prisma db migrate` / `prisma migration status`, since rc.5 renders hints
  through the `{bin}` placeholder; deleted the sentences explaining "the
  binary's own name for itself"
- `(PN-RUN-3000)` becomes `MIGRATION.RUNNER_FAILED` (0.17 dotted codes)
- `from:   null` becomes `from:   (baseline)`
- `Applied 1 migration(s) (3 operation(s)) across 1 contract space(s)` becomes
  `Applied 3 operation(s) across 1 contract space`
- `npx prisma@latest migrate` becomes `npx prisma@latest db migrate` on
  (index)/prisma-orm/create-prisma.mdx; there is no top-level `migrate`
- `contract infer --db` is shown as optional, falling back to `db.connection`
  in `prisma.config.ts`

- Line 89: Update the Temporal runtime guidance in the contract infer
documentation: retain the polyfill installation and import instructions when
globalThis.Temporal is unavailable, but remove the inaccurate claim that no
current Node.js release provides Temporal and acknowledge that Node.js 26
enables it by default.

In `@apps/docs/content/docs/cli/db-init.mdx`:
- Line 37: Correct the documentation for explicit --db behavior in the db-init,
db-update, and CLI index sections: explain that --db suppresses advancement
without removing an existing db ref, so migration plan may use a stale origin;
when no ref exists, distinguish empty-history initialization from
MIGRATION.PLAN_ORIGIN_UNKNOWN with existing migrations, and mention
--advance-ref db where relevant.

In `@apps/docs/content/docs/orm/core-concepts.mdx`:
- Line 106: Update the raw-result decoding warnings in core-concepts.mdx and
raw-queries.mdx to scope them only to APIs that return raw driver values,
explicitly excluding the db.raw.sql(...).returnsRow(spec) path because its
PostgreSQL rows are codec-decoded.

In `@apps/docs/content/docs/orm/data-modeling/index.mdx`:
- Line 157: Update the Decimal entry in the data-modeling documentation to
clarify that decimal strings avoid binary floating-point precision loss, while
Numeric(10, 2) can coerce values to its declared precision and scale, including
rounding fractional digits and rejecting values exceeding the precision.

In `@apps/docs/content/docs/orm/middleware/built-in-lints.mdx`:
- Line 30: Update the opening lint description to state that AST-based checks
apply only to query plans with a typed AST; preserve the existing explanation
that raw-query plans use text heuristics and plans without an AST follow the
documented fallback behavior.

In `@apps/docs/content/docs/orm/migrations/generating-a-migration.mdx`:
- Line 169: Correct the inline alternative explanation for the npx prisma@latest
db update command so it states that --advance-ref db may be omitted, while
preserving the command’s existing omission of --db.

In `@apps/docs/content/docs/orm/migrations/how-migrations-work.mdx`:
- Line 28: Update the migration documentation paragraph to distinguish both db
ref cases: when db exists, omitting --advance-ref db leaves it unchanged and a
later migration plan without --from starts from that stale ref;
MIGRATION.PLAN_ORIGIN_UNKNOWN occurs only when migrations exist, no db ref
exists, and --from is omitted.

Outside diff comments:
In `@apps/docs/content/docs/orm/fundamentals/relations-and-joins.mdx`:
- Line 222: Update the relation predicate in the p.tags.some traversal to
compare each Tag object's id using t.id.eq(tag.id) instead of accessing the
removed PostTag link field pt.tagId, preserving the direct Tag-object traversal
contract.

In `@apps/docs/content/docs/orm/reference/sql-query-builder.mdx`:
- Line 943: Update the grouped-query warning cross-reference near the
`.returns(codecId)` explanation to point to the raw-query decoding explanation
that covers PostgreSQL numeric values remaining strings, or add that distinction
directly in the warning. Remove the stale link to unrelated safe-integer
guidance while preserving the existing compile-time annotation clarification.

Nitpick comments:
In
`@apps/docs/content/docs/`(index)/prisma-orm/add-to-existing-project/postgresql.mdx:
- Around line 46-47: The setup guide currently explains the --schema-path and
--write-env flags inline; replace those explanations with a link to the orm init
reference at /cli/orm-init while preserving the existing workflow choices and
answers.

Both `add-to-existing-project` pages told the reader to keep the default
schema path `prisma/contract.prisma`; `orm init` defaults to
`src/prisma/contract.prisma` and writes `db.ts` beside it, so every later
path on the pages was wrong. Also:

- `orm init` writes `prisma-next.md` and installs no agent skills (rc.6),
  so the skills sentence is gone from both pages.
- `orm init` asks whether to write `.env` from `.env.example` (default No);
  `--write-env` skips the prompt. Both pages now say so before telling the
  reader to fill in `DATABASE_URL`, and mention `--schema-path`.
- Both pages show `src/prisma/db.ts` once, with one sentence saying its
  `import 'dotenv/config'` is what makes `.env` reach any script that
  imports `db`. The scripts no longer pass the URL a second time through
  `db.connect({ url })`.
- PostgreSQL page: `db.orm.User` to `db.orm.public.User`, `db.sql.user` to
  `db.sql.public.user`, and a note on the infer step that `timestamp` and
  `timestamptz` columns map to Temporal-backed types needing
  `temporal-polyfill/full/global` (or `TimestamptzString`) or reads fail
  with `RUNTIME.TEMPORAL_UNAVAILABLE`.
- MongoDB page: one sentence saying Mongo's `db.runtime()` is async and
  Postgres's is not.

…s pages

Since rc.8, `migration plan` with neither `--from` nor a `db` ref refuses
with `MIGRATION.PLAN_ORIGIN_UNKNOWN` whenever migrations already exist on
disk; only an empty `migrations/app/` still plans from empty. Every page
that promised "a full CREATE migration" now says what actually happens and
names the three exits (`migration ref set db <contract>`, `--from <ref>`,
`--from @empty`). The upgrade guide's "look for CREATE TABLE" symptom is
replaced with the error code.

`db init` and `db update` advance the `db` ref only when `--db` is omitted
and the URL comes from `prisma.config.ts`; passing `--db` suppresses that
unless `--advance-ref db` is given too. Stated on db-init, db-update,
migration-ref, and generating-a-migration, and added to the dev-loop
examples that pass `--db`. Deploy and CI examples keep plain `db migrate`,
because it deliberately never moves a repository ref.

`the-migration-graph` loses the "no baseline" limitation. The automatic
baseline (empty graph plus a `db` ref naming a stored snapshot writes a
baseline package and the delta in one run) and the explicit `--from @empty`
retrofit both exist, and a baseline is never replayed against a marked
database. `@empty` is added as the third reserved token, with a note that
the offline commands, `migration ref set` among them, do not accept `@db`.

Leftovers from PR 1 fixed in passing: hyphenated `--name` slugs on
cli/index.mdx and cli/migration-plan.mdx.

Not applied: the audit's claim that `MIGRATION.NO_TARGET` never comes from
`migration plan`. `resolveFromPolicy` calls `findLatestMigration`, which
calls `findLeaf`, which throws it on a cyclic graph, and the monorepo's own
gotchas.md reproduces `migration plan --from db` failing that way after a
rollback. rollbacks-and-recovery.mdx is left as it stands.

…ycles

Since rc.2 there is no `intercept` hook and no generic fallback. Row
queries run `beforeCompile` → `beforeQuery` → `interceptQuery` → `onRow` →
`afterQuery`; non-returning writes run `beforeCompile` → `beforeExecute` →
`interceptExecute` → `afterExecute`. A middleware that wants both paths
registers the same function under both names, which is what `lints` and
`budgets` do. All five pages now say this.

- how-middleware-works: "The five hooks" becomes "The two lifecycles",
  with the per-hook sections split across the two paths and the result
  fields corrected (`afterQuery` carries `rowCount`; `afterExecute`
  carries `stats.affectedRows` and only when `completed`).
- authoring-custom-middleware: the query logger implements `afterQuery`,
  modelled on examples/prisma-8-demo/src/prisma/slow-query-warning.ts,
  with the `afterExecute` variant shown beside it. The hook table lists
  all eight hooks with the lifecycle each belongs to.
- built-in-lints: `unindexedPredicate` is gone; the five keys are
  `selectStar`, `noLimit`, `deleteWithoutWhere`, `updateWithoutWhere`,
  `readOnlyMutation`. A whole-query raw plan has an AST of kind
  `raw-query`: structural rules are skipped and the text heuristics always
  run, and `fallbackWhenAstMissing` applies only when `plan.ast` is absent.
- built-in-budgets: `severities.latency` is read, defaulting to `'warn'`
  and blocking when `'error'` or in strict mode.
- built-in-cache: the cache implements `interceptQuery`, `onRow`,
  `afterQuery`, so the hooks around a hit are `beforeQuery` and
  `afterQuery`; a read through `execute()` is neither cached nor returns
  rows.

Every "permissive mode" reference on the Postgres pages is gone:
`postgres()` never forwards a `mode`, so a Postgres runtime is always
strict, and only `mongo()` accepts one.

Three pages said there was no way to run a standalone raw statement. There
is: `db.raw.sql`SELECT ...`.returnsRow(spec).build()` produces a plan for
`runtime.query()`, `.affectedCount().build()` produces one for
`runtime.execute()`, and a row-returning raw query can be interpolated into
another raw template as a subquery or a CTE. `db.raw` is the client's raw
lane; the tag is `db.raw.sql`, not `db.raw`.

The examples are copied from
examples/prisma-8-demo/src/queries/raw-query-demo.ts.

Also deleted the "bare-scalar interpolation is broken because the inferer
emits unversioned ids" callouts on raw-queries.mdx and
sql-query-builder.mdx. `postgresRawCodecInferer` emits versioned ids
(`pg/int4@1`, `pg/int8@1`, `pg/text@1`, `pg/bool@1`, `pg/bytea@1`), so a
bare value interpolates fine; `param(...)` is for choosing a different
codec, not for working around a defect.

Re-read a9f6058 from scratch. The content holds up: every rewritten claim still matches the rc.9 source, my round-1 fixes are correct, and the docs gates pass (lint:spellcheck 0 issues, lint:links 0 errors; lint:code is the untitled-code-block advisory, same pre-existing state as main).

One new thing needed doing: #8236 squash-merged to main at 684dcbf and this PR was retargeted, so its branch, which still carries #8236's commits, conflicted with main in four files (relations-and-joins, built-in-budgets, raw-queries, sql-query-builder). Pushed b7b947f, a merge of main into the branch, no rebase and no force-push. I verified the result mechanically: the diff main..b7b947f is byte-identical to the diff f81ff4d..a9f6058 (this PR's real content on top of #8236's head), so the merge changes nothing the PR says; it only picks up #8236's late Studio-page tweak (278f218) that the branch lacked. GitHub now reports the PR as mergeable. If you would rather have a linear history, a rebase is yours to do; I do not force-push.

Re-reviewing the new head cold next.

Review clean at b7b947f

Cold re-read of the whole diff against main (31 files, +510/−219, all under apps/docs/content/docs plus two cspell words), with the rewritten claims checked again against the prisma/orm source rather than the PR description.

What the PR does. Rewrites the sentences and samples on the Prisma ORM 8 pages whose explanations no longer match rc.9: the existing-project guides now follow orm init's real output (src/prisma/contract.prisma, src/prisma/db.ts, the .env prompt, no skill install); the migration pages teach the db ref's actual movement (db init/db update advance it only without --db, db migrate only with --advance-ref db) and the MIGRATION.PLAN_ORIGIN_UNKNOWN refusal, plus the automatic and --from @empty baselines; the middleware pages describe the two real lifecycles (beforeQuery/interceptQuery/onRow/afterQuery and beforeExecute/interceptExecute/afterExecute) and drop the nonexistent intercept, unindexedPredicate, and Postgres permissive mode; aggregates are documented as numbers with countBigInt/sumBigInt/avgDecimal beside them; whole-statement raw SQL via db.raw.sql + .returnsRow()/.affectedCount() replaces the "no standalone raw SQL" claim; 1:1 back-relations, junction include/nested writes, onDelete/onUpdate, and .variant() are documented as supported; and the broken samples (rawCodecInferer, upsert conflictOn, prepare() then connect(), structured DRIVER.* codes) are fixed. No new or moved pages; Prisma 6/7 trees untouched.

Verified this round. Spot-checked against source: PLAN_ORIGIN_UNKNOWN, PSL_NON_UNIQUE_BACKRELATION, TEMPORAL_UNAVAILABLE, the .env prompt text and --write-env, DEFAULT_CONTRACT_SOURCE_DIR = 'src/prisma' and the db.ts template byte-for-byte, budgets severities.latency defaulting to 'warn' and blocking only on 'error' or strict mode, postgres(...) never taking a mode while mongo(...) does, afterExecute's stats-only-when-completed shape, ORM.MODEL_UNKNOWN, DRIVER.NOT_CONNECTED/ALREADY_CONNECTED, the codec ids (pg/int8@1, pg/int8number@1, pg/timestamptz-temporal@1, pg/bytea@1), fns.cosineSimilarity, the Supabase package exporting ./pack and ./runtime with no ./control, and .variant() on the SQL collection. The one claim I doubted, "Jsonb is what Json meant before 0.17", holds: the changelog at the v0.16.0 tag has no Jsonb scalar; it first appears under v0.17.0 (the orm upgrade notes' "pre-0.16" wording is that repo's own inconsistency).

Gates. lint:spellcheck 0 issues, lint:links 0 errors (688 files); lint:code is the untitled-code-block advisory that main already fails and is not a gate per apps/docs/CLAUDE.md. All GitHub checks green. Base main at 684dcbf has not moved since my merge commit, and the PR is reported mergeable.

Risk: low. Docs-only, every factual change traced to source, gates green, and the merge commit was verified content-neutral. Two notes for whoever merges, neither this PR's to fix: the --from grammar's ./path token and the MIDDLEWARE_FAMILY_MISMATCH timing sentence are pre-existing nuances outside this diff, below the bar for a task; and the PR body still carries the author's "Generated with Claude Code" line, which our own pushes do not add.

… rewrites left stale

- add-to-existing-project/postgresql.mdx: the note said Temporal ships only
  in Node.js 26.8.2 and later. The official nodejs.org builds of 26.0.0,
  26.8.0, 26.8.1 and 26.8.2 (linux-x64, run here) all report
  typeof Temporal === 'object', the darwin-arm64 26.8.1 and 26.8.2 binaries
  are both built with v8_enable_temporal_support and carry temporal_rs, and
  the v26.0.0 release notes list "Temporal API enabled by default" while the
  26.8.1 and 26.8.2 notes mention no Temporal change. Say "Node.js 26 ships
  it" again and give the reader the one-line check so any build without it
  is caught before the first read.
- relations-and-joins.mdx: the page now declares `tags Tag[]` and says
  `.include("tags")` returns tags, but the relation-predicate sample below
  still read the element as a PostTag link (`pt.tagId`). The element is the
  Tag (integration test mn-filter.test.ts: `u.tags.some((t) => t.name...)`),
  so compare `t.id`.
- sql-query-builder.mdx: the `.returns()` remark pointed at "the grouped-query
  warning" for why a raw numeric decodes as a string, but that warning is
  now a note saying aggregates decode as numbers. Point at the EXTRACT
  example under groupBy, which is where the explanation lives now.

Re-read c8d2137 from scratch (full diff against main, 31 files, gates run locally: lint:links 0 errors, lint:spellcheck 0 issues, lint:code exit 0 with only the pre-existing untitled-block advisories). Three things needed fixing; pushed as 57ea15b.

  • add-to-existing-project/postgresql.mdx, the Temporal note (the commit this run reviews). c8d2137 changed "Node.js 26 ships it" to "Node.js 26.8.2 and later ship it", citing typeof Temporal === 'undefined' on 26.8.1. I could not reproduce that on the official builds. Downloaded from nodejs.org and ran here: linux-x64 26.0.0, 26.8.0, 26.8.1 and 26.8.2 all print object for typeof globalThis.Temporal, and Temporal.Now.instant() works on 26.8.1. The darwin-arm64 26.8.1 and 26.8.2 binaries are both built with v8_enable_temporal_support and carry the same temporal_rs implementation. The v26.0.0 release notes list "Temporal API enabled by default"; the 26.8.1 notes are an out-of-band node --version fix and the 26.8.2 notes mention no Temporal change. So the sentence as pushed would send everyone on 26.0–26.8.1 to install a polyfill they do not need. Reverted to "Node.js 26 ships it enabled by default" and added the one-line check (node -p "typeof Temporal") so a reader on a build that lacks it still finds out before the first read. @wmadden-electric, if your 26.8.1 came from somewhere other than nodejs.org (a distro or Homebrew build compiled with Temporal off, a container image built from source), say which, and that is worth its own sentence; I found no channel where the official 26.x lacks it.
  • orm/fundamentals/relations-and-joins.mdx. The PR changed this page's model to tags Tag[] and documents .include("tags") as returning tags, but the relation-predicate sample further down still read the element as a link record: p.tags.some((pt) => pt.tagId.eq(tag.id)). Through a junction the element is the far model (prisma/orm test/integration/test/sql-orm-client/mn-filter.test.ts: u.tags.some((t) => t.name.eq('Rust'))), so the sample now compares t.id.eq(tag.id). CodeRabbit flagged this as outside the diff; it is this PR's own schema change that made it wrong.
  • orm/reference/sql-query-builder.mdx. The .returns() remark pointed at "the grouped-query warning" to explain why a raw numeric still decodes as a string, but this PR turned that warning into a note that says aggregates decode as numbers. The explanation now lives on the EXTRACT example under groupBy, so the remark says why in place and links there instead.

Nothing else moved; the rest of the diff still matches what the earlier rounds verified against the rc.9 source. types:check fails here only on @prisma/eclipse not being built in a fresh checkout, which is unrelated to a content-only change. Re-reviewing the new head cold next.

Fresh read of the head from a new clone: PR body, the full 31-file diff against main (which has not moved; the branch is up to date with it), and the pages around each hunk, including the three fixes I pushed last round. Gates run locally from apps/docs: lint:links 0 errors, lint:spellcheck 0 issues, lint:code exit 0 (the untitled-block advisories are pre-existing), and types:check fails only on the unbuilt @prisma/eclipse workspace package, which a change touching only .mdx and cspell.json cannot affect.

What the PR does. Rewrites the explanations on twelve Prisma ORM 8 pages that no longer matched rc.9, on top of the mechanical renames in #8236: the existing-project pages now follow what orm init really writes (src/prisma/contract.prisma, src/prisma/db.ts, the .env prompt and --write-env, no skill install), the migration pages teach the db ref, --advance-ref db, MIGRATION.PLAN_ORIGIN_UNKNOWN, @empty and the automatic baseline, the middleware pages describe the two lifecycles (beforeQuery/interceptQuery/onRow/afterQuery and beforeExecute/interceptExecute/afterExecute), aggregates are documented as numbers with countBigInt/sumBigInt/avgDecimal beside them, whole-statement raw SQL via db.raw.sql with .returnsRow()/.affectedCount() is documented, and the relations pages document 1:1 back-relations, many-to-many include and nested writes through a junction, onDelete/onUpdate, and .variant(). Plus the sample fixes (conflictOn on upsert, rawCodecInferer in the migration example, structured DRIVER.* codes, the Temporal note, the Supabase wiring).

Checked this round against the rc.9 source: the db.ts templates match code-templates.ts byte for byte; the .env prompt text and --write-env flag; contract infer's timestamp → Timestamp / timestamptz → Timestamptz map; RUNTIME.TEMPORAL_UNAVAILABLE; the eight hook names on SqlMiddleware; PLAN_ORIGIN_UNKNOWN and @empty; conflictOn; .variant(); PSL_NON_UNIQUE_BACKRELATION; ORM.MODEL_UNKNOWN on the Mongo Unknown root throw; DRIVER.NOT_CONNECTED/ALREADY_CONNECTED; pg/int8number@1 and pg/timestamptz-temporal@1; countBigInt/sumBigInt/avgDecimal; fns.cosineSimilarity; the raw-query AST kind in lints.ts; budgets' severities.latency defaulting to 'warn' and blocking on 'error' or strict mode; returnsRow/affectedCount, table.columns, and RawRowQuery.returns; pgvector/PostGIS exporting ./control while Supabase exports only ./pack, ./contract, ./runtime; and temporal-polyfill@1.0.4 exporting ./full/global. All as documented.

Risk: low. Content-only, every claim traces to source, gates green, and the earlier rounds' fixes read correctly in context. The one thread still open is @wmadden-electric's observation of typeof Temporal === 'undefined' on a 26.8.1 build, which I could not reproduce on any official nodejs.org binary (details in my previous comment); the page now tells the reader to run node -p "typeof Temporal" themselves, so a reader on an unusual build finds out before the first read either way. If that build came from a non-official channel, a one-line follow-up naming it would be worth a separate small PR, but it does not block this one.

No follow-up tasks proposed. Ready for a human to merge.
