db migrate

Generate a database migration file for schema changes.

Steps

1. Detect the ORM or migration tool in use (Prisma, Drizzle, Knex, Alembic, Django, GORM).
2. Analyze the requested schema change:
   • Add/remove tables or columns.
   • Modify column types, constraints, or defaults.
   • Add/remove indexes or foreign keys.
3. Generate the migration file in the correct format for the tool.
4. Include both up and down migration functions for reversibility.
5. Handle data migrations if column types change:
   • Add new column, copy data, drop old column, rename new column.
6. Validate the migration against the current schema state.
7. Run the migration in dry-run mode if the tool supports it.

Format

Migration: _<description>
Tool: <ORM/migration tool>

Up:
  - <change description>

Down:
  - <reverse change>

Data migration required: <yes/no>

Rules

• Every migration must be reversible with a down function.
• Never drop columns or tables without a data backup step.
• Use transactions for multi-step migrations when supported.
• Test migrations against a copy of production data structure.
• Name migrations with timestamps to prevent ordering conflicts.
