Two framework-agnostic skills (dependency injection, legacy coexistence) plus a `foundation` guideline that frames the codebase as an application, not a package. Rides the [`sandermuller/boost-core`](https://github.com/sandermuller/boost-core) sync engine; ships no code of its own. [![overview image](overview.png)](overview.png) > For PHP application developers on any framework or none. [`laravel/boost`](https://github.com/laravel/boost) is Laravel-only; `project-boost-php` covers Symfony, plain-PHP, and framework-agnostic apps. Building a Laravel app? Install [`sandermuller/project-boost-laravel`](https://github.com/sandermuller/project-boost-laravel) instead — it layers `laravel/boost` MCP coexistence on the same nine-agent fanout.

You supply the skills.What you get ------------ [](#what-you-get) **Two skills** — universally-applicable PHP practices, not tied to any architecture. SkillTriggers when`dependency-injection`Constructor injection, container hygiene, avoiding service locators.`legacy-coexistence`Adding modern PHP (typed properties, readonly, enums) to a 7.x codebase incrementally.**One guideline** — `foundation`. Framework-agnostic application-developer framing: what an app codebase is, how its edges form its real contract, and how to work in it. Always shipped, no tag required. > Want architecture-specific guidance (DDD layering, repositories, domain modeling)? Those shipped through 0.x but were dropped at 1.0 to keep the default framework-agnostic — copy any you want into your own `.ai/skills//SKILL.md` (host copies shadow vendor skills), or exclude a shipped skill via `->withExcludedSkills(['sandermuller/project-boost-php:'])`.

First run --------- [](#first-run) ``` vendor/bin/boost install # interactive picker — agents + vendor allowlist; writes boost.php vendor/bin/boost sync # fan out skills + guideline to selected agents ``` The five skills land in your selected agent skill directories (`.claude/skills/`, `.cursor/skills/`, …); `foundation` merges into each agent's guidelines file (`CLAUDE.md`, `AGENTS.md`, …). Generated dirs are added to `.gitignore` automatically. Edit `.ai/` only — the fan-out regenerates on every sync. `boost.php` ----------- [](#boostphp) Minimal: ```
