No. It’s installed as dependency.

Would just like to follow up on this issue, was having the same production deploy error as above, using Dokku: TypeError: Cannot read property '$name' of undefined

Was able to fix it by setting YARN_PRODUCTION=false as mentioned, although long term would like to not have to use this flag - any updates on this weird interaction?

Running into a potentially similar issue as well: Type error: Module '"nexus-prisma"' has no exported member 'Model' within the github action runner. I know this is still in early stages of development but wanted to report it.
