TML-3234: Shape<Model, Spec> for response types derived from models, replacing With - #30236
Conversation
Refs: TML-3234 Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: willbot <w.a.madden+machine@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Will Madden <madden@prisma.io>
Shape describes an application data structure derived from a model: at every level of the spec, "+" keeps the named scalars and relations, "-" drops scalars, any other key is a relation with a nested spec, {} is all scalars and no relations, and relations are absent unless named. Cardinality and nullability come from the model field. It distributes over polymorphic unions. ShapeSpec is exported so a generic over specs can be written, and Spec defaults to the empty spec so Shape<User> is Scalars<User>.
With is removed. The ORM and demo type tests assert Shape equalities against real query shapes, including a bare-collection equality for every SQL fixture model and an endpoint whose explicit return type is a Shape and whose body returns a transformed nested-include query. The reference page, ADR 249, the user skill, and the upgrade instructions describe Shape instead of With.

| `RelationNamesOf<M>` reads the phantom's value type with a distributive conditional, so a key outside the model's relations is a compile error, and `Flatten` turns the intersection into one object type so hover text shows a single shape. `With` is a pure utility over `Models.public_User`, like `Scalars`: no contract parameter, no object of booleans, no nesting, no relation paths, and nothing that could be mirrored at runtime. That is what separates it from a selection parameter. `With<User, 'posts'>` and `ResultType<typeof db.orm.public.User.include('posts')>` are the same type, and the type tests check that for every fixture model. | ||
| The constraint on `Spec` is a mapped type over `Spec`'s own keys, so a wrong name, a relation in `'-'`, a non-object relation value, an unknown key, `'+'` beside `'-'`, or a relation both in `'+'` and as a key is a compile error on the offending key. An unknown key is constrained to a string literal that reads as the error and names the valid keys, for example `'nope' is not a relation of the model; try '+', '-', or 'posts'`. `ShapeOf` distributes over `M`, so over a polymorphic `Any<Base>` union each variant keeps only the relations it declares, and `Flatten` turns each level into one object type so hover text shows a single shape. `Shape<M, {}>` is `Scalars<M>`, `Shape<M, { r: {} }>` is what `.include('r')` returns, `Shape<M, { '+': 'a' | 'b' }>` is what `.select('a', 'b')` returns, and a nested spec is what a nested include returns. The type tests hold the bare-collection equality (`ResultType` of the collection equals `Shape<M>`) for every SQL fixture model, and the include, projection, and nested-include equalities for representative relations of the SQL fixtures. What `Shape` deliberately cannot express (`where`, `orderBy`, `limit`, aggregation, renames, computed fields) is composed with TypeScript: `Shape<User, {}> & { postCount: number }`. |

TypeScript exact behavior keyof true keyof boolean mapped type primitive
💡 Result:
The behavior of the keyof operator and mapped types on primitives is governed by specific rules in TypeScript: 1. keyof and Primitives When keyof is applied to primitive types (like true or boolean), it returns the keys of the corresponding wrapper object type (e.g., Boolean or Number) [1]. Because these primitive types effectively act like objects with methods (like toString or valueOf), keyof retrieves those property names [1]. For keyof boolean, this results in a union of the keys available on the Boolean interface [1]. 2. Homomorphic Mapped Types Mapped types of the form { [P in keyof T]: U } are known as homomorphic mapped types [2][3][4]. They are designed to be structure-preserving functions of T [2]. A crucial, often surprising behavior is that when these mapped types are instantiated with a primitive type, they do not produce an object type but instead return the original primitive type [2][3][5]. This behavior is intentional [3]. It prevents mapped types from erroneously mapping primitives (like null, undefined, or boolean) into empty objects or causing issues in recursive type definitions where primitives may appear as base cases [3][5]. If you require an object-like mapping for primitive types, you must use a conditional type to explicitly handle primitives [2]: type MyMappedType = T extends object? { [P in keyof T]: any }: T; In summary: - keyof on a primitive returns the keys of its object-wrapper interface [1]. - Homomorphic mapped types ({[P in keyof T]: ...}) "short-circuit" when provided with a primitive type, returning the primitive itself instead of performing the mapping [2][3].

Reject primitive relation specifications. ShapeSpec recursively maps Spec[K] without an object guard. TypeScript homomorphic mapped types preserve primitive inputs, so ShapeSpec<Post, true> remains true, and Shape<User, { posts: true }> satisfies its constraint. Add an object guard to ShapeSpec and this negative type test:
// `@ts-expect-error` relation specifications must be objects
type InvalidRelationSpec = Shape<User, { posts: true }>;Keep both documentation sites aligned with this contract.

| `Shape<M, {}>` is `Scalars<M>`, and `Shape<M, { r: {} }>` replaces the hand-written `Scalars<M> & { r: Scalars<R>[] }` intersection: the two are assignable in both directions and identical once flattened, and `Shape` reads the wrapper from the model, so you do not have to remember which relations are lists and which are nullable. One rule of the query builder is not in the type: a refined to-one include (`include('reviewer', (r) => r.where(...))`) is `| null` even on a required relation, because the refinement can exclude the row. |

Qualify the intersection as a to-many example.
Shape preserves relation cardinality: to-many relations are T[], nullable to-one relations are T | null, and required to-one relations are T. The Scalars<M> & { r: Scalars<R>[] } equivalence applies only when r is to-many. Qualify r in this example so readers do not infer an incorrect public type annotation.

Make WrapLike non-distributive. A nullable array relation can produce R[] | R | null instead of preserving its array cardinality. Use this implementation and add a type test for nullable relation arrays.

An endpoint's response type is a contract used across client code. It should be derived from the model, not from the query, so that changing the query client changes nothing and changing the model breaks the query that no longer satisfies it.
