Compute docs teach @prisma/cli@latest and the removed app/database command groupsΒ #8148

Description

@ankur-arch

What happens

11 pages under apps/docs/content/docs/compute/ (cli-reference, getting-started, configuration, github, deployments, domains, environment-variables, limitations, faq, branching, image-transformations) instruct readers to run npx @prisma/cli@latest and document the app deploy, app open, app logs, and database create commands.

Verified today against npm and the published binary:

  • @prisma/cli@latest resolves to 3.0.0-beta.30 (abandoned 2021 CLI). Every copy-paste of a documented command fails at the first step.
  • The real Prisma 8 CLI is @prisma/cli@next (8.0.0-rc.1), whose command set is: auth login, project *, postgres create (replaces database create), git connect (replaces the app deploy push-to-deploy setup), service list|create|show|open|remove + service deployment *, build logs <id>, composer deploy|dev|log|destroy, plus the ORM toolchain (init, migrate, db *, migration *). There is no app group and no database group.

Expected

The compute docs teach the command set that exists in the published CLI, using @prisma/cli@next until Prisma 8 GA flips the tag (then a single sweep to @latest).

Why it matters

This is the primary Compute onboarding surface. A first-time user following getting-started hits "unknown command" on step one. Related fixes already landed for the same problem elsewhere: Console hints (prisma/pdp-control-plane#4896, #4897), templates (prisma/prisma-examples#8565, prisma/compute-deploy-example#1), and the Deploy Button page (#8116) which is already consistent.

Reported during Prisma 8 end-to-end testing on behalf of Ankur Datta.
