Stack: Laravel (PHP)

Laravel preset

A reasoning guide the onboard flow uses for Laravel projects. It is a checklist, not a template — detected reality wins.

Signals

  • composer.json with laravel/framework, an artisan console script, and an app/ tree (Models, Http/Controllers, Providers).
  • routes/web.php and routes/api.php, database/migrations/, and Eloquent models.
  • Test runner and lint/format tooling inferred from composer.json and config files that exist.

What to reason about

  • The real test command (php artisan test, vendor/bin/phpunit, or vendor/bin/pest) and any lint/format gate (Pint, PHP-CS-Fixer, PHPStan/Larastan) — captured verbatim.
  • Routing, controller, and Eloquent conventions; the migration workflow; environment and config layout (.env, config/).
  • Stack-appropriate skills for models, controllers, migrations, and Artisan commands.

Notes

Useful for Laravel apps following the standard project layout. If the repo uses Sail/Docker, capture whether the test and lint gates run inside the container.
