Spatie Laravel & PHP Guidelines

Overview

Apply Spatie's Laravel and PHP guidelines to keep code style consistent and Laravel-native.

When to Activate

Activate this skill for any Laravel or PHP coding work, even if the user does not explicitly mention Spatie.

Activate this skill when asked to generate, edit, format, refactor, review, or align Laravel/PHP code.

Activate this skill when working on .php or .blade.php files, routes, controllers, models, config, validation, migrations, or tests.

Scope

In scope: .php, .blade.php, Laravel conventions (routes, controllers, config, validation, migrations, tests).

Out of scope: JS/TS, CSS, infrastructure, database schema design, non-Laravel frameworks.

Workflow

Identify the artifact (controller, route, config, model, Blade, test, etc.).

Read references/spatie-laravel-php-guidelines.md and focus on the relevant sections.

Apply the core Laravel principle first, then PHP standards, then section-specific rules.

If a rule conflicts with existing project conventions, follow Laravel conventions and keep changes consistent.
