- Line 96: In item 1, remove the duplicated opening sentence so “Every query
goes through the same pipeline.” appears only once, while preserving the
remainder of the explanation unchanged.
- Line 162: Update the migration definition sentence around “A migration” so it
states that a migration moves the database schema from the state described by
one contract to the state described by another, while preserving the surrounding
explanation.
- Line 35: Update the schema definition near the referenced paragraph to include
collections alongside tables and indexes, covering both PostgreSQL and MongoDB.
In the contract-state discussion near the contract.json hash, replace “schema
state” with “contract state” while preserving the surrounding explanation.
- Line 234: Update the “How migrations work” link description so the colon is
followed by a space, changing “contract, then” to “contract, then” with the
proper “work: change” spacing.
- Line 228: Remove the stray § character from the prompt so it reads “CLI
scripts,” leaving the rest of the prompt unchanged.

Reviewed 107845321a1aade7aa0ffbe67264a1bdc9518213 (full diff, the page in context, and the pages it cross-references), ran the content gates locally on the fix (cspell 0 issues, lint:links 0 errors, lint:agent-ready 0 failures), and pushed 5c3e7da2ad523a3b09acc611fec9464a152ec110 with these repairs. All are places where the copyedit broke a sentence or changed what the page claims; pure wording preferences I left alone.

Found and fixed

  • Plans (L78): "including its parameters and the metadata that the query touches" made metadata something the query touches. Restored "its parameters, and metadata about what the query touches".
  • Plans list (L96): "Every query goes through the same pipeline." was duplicated, and "an API extension added" lost the relative clause. Now "an API that an extension added".
  • ORM client (L103): "the operation.include()" dropped the space and the code formatting, and "Placing relation traversal above all, it hands back one typed result" no longer parsed. Now "the .include() operation coordinates several queries on your behalf to serve higher-order needs, relation traversal above all, and hands back one typed result."
  • Typed builders (L105): "compiles this into one statement which then runs" lost the guarantee the sentence exists to state and "this" had no referent. Restored "compiles to exactly one statement, so what you build is what runs". Also stripped trailing whitespace here and on L9.
  • Stack (L116): family, target, adapter and driver are layers of the stack, not "aspects of the database". Now "These four names recur in error messages and extension docs; day to day, you configure the one facade package and move on."
  • Migrations (L162): "from the state one contract described by another" was a broken definition. Now "from the state one contract describes to the state another describes", matching the from/to wording on the migration graph page.
  • Prompt example (L228): stray § in "§CLI scripts" removed.
  • Next steps (L234): missing space after the colon; "apply your workflow loop" now reads "plan, review, and apply the migration".
  • L118: Prisma 8’s used a curly apostrophe in a file that uses straight ones everywhere else.

Not changed, for the author: CONTRIBUTING.md requires type(scope): subject with a Linear: reference in the body; the PR's commit is titled commit and the PR title is Core concepts copyedit. Nothing enforces it in CI, so I did not rewrite history, but the PR title is yours to fix.

I will re-read the new head cold in a couple of minutes.

— reviewer

"Middleware ... executes them all in the same way" attributed query
execution to middleware; the runtime executes plans and middleware
only hooks around them. Restored the original "execution works the
same way for all of them". "and, overall, support for an entire
database" lost the meaning of "at the widest"; restored it.

Re-read 5c3e7da2ad523a3b09acc611fec9464a152ec110 cold (full diff against main, the whole page, and the middleware and extensions pages it points at). Gates on that head: cspell 0 issues, lint:links 0 errors, lint:agent-ready 0 failures. Two claims still did not survive the copyedit, both missed in round 1; pushed 132ee471e9d58fdb20968fb03002856bb63e3b10 with the repairs.

Found and fixed

  • Plans list (L96): "Middleware sees every query in the same shape and executes them all in the same way" made middleware the thing that executes queries. It is not: plans execute through the runtime (db.runtime().execute(plan), and the middleware page says both APIs "execute through the same runtime"); middleware only hooks around that. Restored "Middleware sees every query in the same shape, execution works the same way for all of them, and the query APIs can be mixed freely."
  • Extensions (L132): "and, overall, support for an entire database" replaced "at the widest", and "overall" does not carry that meaning; the sentence is listing what an extension can add, from a column type up to a whole database. Restored "and, at the widest, support for an entire database."

Left alone again: the marketing-flavoured opener on L9, "Our core" on L118, and the doubled blank lines at L12 and L41; none of those change what the page claims and the repo has no rule on them.

This is my second push to this branch. I will re-read the new head cold in a couple of minutes.

Review clean at 132ee47

Cold re-read of that head: full diff against main (0 behind), the whole apps/docs/content/docs/orm/core-concepts.mdx page, and the pages it cross-references. Gates on it: cspell 0 issues, lint:links 0 errors, lint:agent-ready 0 failures; CI spelling, link validation, lychee, and both Playwright (Docs) runs pass.

What the PR does: a one-file copyedit of the ORM core-concepts page (+29/−25). No structural changes, no frontmatter, link, code-block, or heading changes. Rounds 1 and 2 restored the sentences the copyedit had broken or whose claims it had altered (metadata/plans wording, the duplicated pipeline sentence, .include() formatting, "exactly one statement", middleware not executing queries, "at the widest" for extensions, the migration definition, and a few stray characters). This read finds every remaining hunk meaning-preserving.

Risk: low. Prose only, every technical claim now matches the original and the linked pages, and all content gates are green. Two things I deliberately left as the author's voice, not findings: the "To meet the evolving needs of developers" opener (L9) and "Our core remains small, because it is focused" (L118); the docs writing guide has no rule against either. Also as noted in round 1, the commit and PR title do not follow the CONTRIBUTING type(scope) format, which is not enforced by any gate.

Resolves the core-concepts conflicts with the Prisma ORM naming change and
the new raw query paragraph on main. Also addresses the review thread on
contract versus schema terminology.

* commit

* docs(docs): fix garbled sentences in core concepts copyedit

Repairs edits in the copyedit that broke or inverted the meaning of
the page: a duplicated sentence, ".include()" without backticks, the
migration definition, the "exactly one statement" builder guarantee,
the plan metadata description, a stray section sign in a prompt
example, a missing space in Next steps, and a curly apostrophe in a
file that uses straight ones.

Refs: #8234

* docs(docs): restore two claims in core concepts copyedit

"Middleware ... executes them all in the same way" attributed query
execution to middleware; the runtime executes plans and middleware
only hooks around them. Restored the original "execution works the
same way for all of them". "and, overall, support for an entire
database" lost the meaning of "at the widest"; restored it.

* commit

* commit

* generating edits

* Migration copyedits

* docs(docs): fix copyedit regressions in ORM migrations pages

Repairs sentences that the copyedit in #8235 broke or changed in meaning:
a duplicated sentence and a garbled migration definition in core-concepts,
"an API extension added", "the operation.include()", "the metadata that the
query touches", a stray section sign, a missing space after a colon, a
doubled "recompiling" and "happily smoothly" in editing-a-migration, a
comma splice and double space in rollbacks-and-recovery, a mid-sentence
capital "To" in the-migration-graph, and curly quotes normalised to the
straight quotes the surrounding prose uses.

Linear: none (review follow-up on PR #8235)

* docs(docs): middleware observes queries, it does not execute them

The copyedit of the "Plans matter" list made middleware the subject of
"executes them all in the same way". Middleware runs hooks around a query;
the runtime executes it. Restores the original three-part claim (same
shape, same execution, mixable APIs) and drops two stray blank lines.
