Database Architecture

ReconLayer’s persistence layer (packages/db/prisma/schema.prisma) is PostgreSQL via Prisma. packages/db owns the schema exclusively — HTTP handlers (apps/api) and the pure matching logic (packages/reconciliation-engine) never execute SQL directly. This page documents the actual tables, enums, and relations as defined in schema.prisma.

Five design rules are baked into this schema (from the schema header comments):

raw_records.payload is jsonb, never edited, never deleted.
match_links.match_reason is human-readable text, not a code.
reconciliation_cases keeps expected, actual, fee, FX, rounding, and unexplained_delta as separate columns — nothing is collapsed into one number.
Every state change is logged in audit_events. Append-only.
Amounts use Decimal(38, 18) — wide enough for 18-decimal stablecoin values without losing fractional cents.

Operational and platform tables

These tables support API access, integrations, outbound webhooks, org settings, and UI preferences. They are not part of the reconciliation data model but share the same database.

Table	Model	Purpose
`api_keys`	`ApiKey`	Machine credentials for headless org integrations. Unique `prefix` and `hashedKey`.
`integrations`	`Integration`	Configured provider/bank/chain-indexer/system-of-record connections. `kind`: `provider \| bank \| chain_indexer \| system_of_record`. `status`: `disabled \| active \| deleted`.
`outbound_webhook_endpoints`	`OutboundWebhookEndpoint`	Customer-configured webhook destinations with `subscribedEvents[]` and a `signingSecret`.
`outbound_webhook_events`	`OutboundWebhookEvent`	Queued events (`pending \| delivered \| failed \| skipped`), unique on `(organizationId, sourceKey)`.
`outbound_webhook_deliveries`	`OutboundWebhookDelivery`	Per-endpoint delivery attempts with retry state (`pending \| retry_scheduled \| delivered \| failed`).
`organization_settings`	`OrganizationSettings`	Per-workspace defaults: `name`, `region`, `currency`, `slaProfile`, `retention`.
`organization_roles` / `organization_member_access`	`OrganizationRole` / `OrganizationMemberAccess`	RBAC roles and member invitations, keyed to Clerk users.
`user_preferences`	`UserPreference`	Per-user UI/accessibility defaults (`fontSize`, `density`, `reducedMotion`, `highContrast`).
`idempotency_requests`	`IdempotencyRequest`	Request-level idempotency for client retries, unique on `(organizationId, operation, idempotencyKey)`.

Schema migrations

pnpm db:generate  # Generate the Prisma Client
pnpm db:migrate   # Apply pending migrations

Because core-model (canonical shape types and Zod schemas) is separate from db (Prisma persistence types), the reconciliation engine and most service-layer logic can be tested without a database.
