Inherits the framework-agnostic package-author toolkit from [`sandermuller/package-boost-php`](https://github.com/sandermuller/package-boost-php) and layers on Laravel-specific context: Testbench conventions, cross-version Laravel support, CI matrix diagnostics, and the `McpJsonEmitter` that wires `laravel/boost`'s MCP server into Claude Code during `boost sync`. [![overview image](overview.png)](overview.png) > Where [`laravel/boost`](https://github.com/laravel/boost) targets Laravel **application** developers, `package-boost-laravel` targets the people building Laravel **packages** — the dev-time codebase where `app/`, `bootstrap/`, and `.env` don't exist and `php artisan` doesn't apply. Coexists cleanly with `laravel/boost` if you also dogfood it from inside your package's test app. Which package fits your role? ----------------------------- [](#which-package-fits-your-role) You're buildingInstallShipsA PHP application (not a package)[`sandermuller/project-boost`](https://github.com/sandermuller/project-boost)App-dev skills: DDD layering, repository pattern, DI, domain modeling, legacy coexistenceA Laravel application[`sandermuller/project-boost-laravel`](https://github.com/sandermuller/project-boost-laravel)`laravel/boost` MCP coexistence + nine-agent fanout + tag filter + remote skillsA framework-agnostic Composer package[`sandermuller/package-boost-php`](https://github.com/sandermuller/package-boost-php)Package-author skills + `lean` / `gitattributes` commands**A Laravel package****[`sandermuller/package-boost-laravel`](https://github.com/sandermuller/package-boost-laravel)****Laravel-package skills + `McpJsonEmitter` ← you are here**Your own skill bundle, or custom tooling[`sandermuller/boost-core`](https://github.com/sandermuller/boost-core)The sync engine. You supply the skills.What you get ------------ [](#what-you-get) **`McpJsonEmitter`** — the zero-overlap claim against `laravel/boost`. Writes `.mcp.json` on every `boost sync`, idempotent, with the command pointed at `vendor/bin/testbench boost:mcp` (not `php artisan`) so the MCP server actually boots in a package codebase. `laravel/boost` writes `.mcp.json` once at install time against `php artisan`, which doesn't exist here. The emitter fires only when all three conditions hold: `laravel/boost` is in your dev dependencies, `orchestra/testbench` is in your dev dependencies, and `Agent::CLAUDE_CODE` is in your active agents. Otherwise it returns null and skips silently. **Three Laravel-flavored skills** — on-demand workflows for Laravel-package authorship. All three are untagged, so they ship whenever this package is installed.

Composes with the framework-agnostic `foundation` guideline inherited from `package-boost-php`.—Inherits everything `package-boost-php` ships — `foundation` guideline, `lean` / `gitattributes` CLI commands, the `lean-dist` skill, and the release-flow content skills (`readme`, `release-notes`, `upgrading`) from `sandermuller/boost-skills` under the `release-automation` tag. The `skill-authoring` + `writing-file-emitter` skills ship too but are gated behind the `boost-extension` tag — declare it if your package extends the engine with a custom `FileEmitter` (this package does, for `McpJsonEmitter`). Install ------- [](#install) ``` composer require --dev sandermuller/package-boost-laravel ``` PHP 8.3+ and Laravel 12 or 13. `sandermuller/package-boost-php`, `sandermuller/boost-core`, and `stolt/lean-package-validator` all come in transitively — do **not** require any of them separately, they resolve through this umbrella. A Laravel-package author requires only `sandermuller/package-boost-laravel` and gets the whole stack. (Internally this package pins `sandermuller/boost-core` directly so its `McpJsonEmitter` is guaranteed the iterable `FileEmitter` contract — boost-core ≥ 0.21 — an implementation floor, not something you declare.) First run --------- [](#first-run) ``` vendor/bin/boost install # interactive: pick agents, allowlist vendors (writes boost.php) vendor/bin/boost sync # fan out skills + guidelines to selected agents ``` If `laravel/boost` + `orchestra/testbench` are in your dev deps and Claude Code is one of your active agents, `boost sync` writes `.mcp.json` automatically. Generated agent dirs (`.claude/`, `.cursor/`, etc.) are added to `.gitignore`; edit `.ai/` only, then re-run `vendor/bin/boost sync`. `boost.php` config ------------------ [](#boostphp-config) ```
