Install and all tools automatically optimize their output when an AI agent is detected.

MCP Server Setup
----------------

[](#mcp-server-setup)

The MCP servers ship as dev dependencies — run `composer install` (not `--no-dev`) to get them.

### Laravel Boost

[](#laravel-boost)

Laravel Boost provides AI guidelines, skills, and an MCP server for your project.

**Install the package:**

```
composer require laravel/boost --dev
```

**Run the installer** (auto-detects Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, PhpStorm):

```
php artisan boost:install
```

This configures AI guidelines, agent skills, and the MCP server in one step.

**Manual MCP setup** (if you skip the installer):

Add to `.mcp.json` in the project root:

```
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "boost": {
            "command": "php",
            "args": ["artisan", "boost:mcp"]
        }
    }
}
```

### Model Inspector MCP

[](#model-inspector-mcp)

Gives AI assistants deep introspection into Eloquent models, relationships, and schema.

**Install the package:**

```
composer require skylence/laravel-model-inspector-mcp --dev
```

**Run the installer** (auto-detects your editor):

```
php artisan model-inspector:install
```

**Manual MCP setup:**

```
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "laravel-model-inspector-mcp": {
            "command": "php",
            "args": ["artisan", "model-inspector:mcp"]
        }
    }
}
```

Using Laravel Sail? Replace `php` with `./vendor/bin/sail`.

### Optimize MCP

[](#optimize-mcp)

Analyzes your Laravel config, structure, and database for performance and security insights.

**Install the package:**

```
composer require skylence/laravel-optimize-mcp --dev
```

**Run the installer** (auto-detects your editor, optionally configures HTTP access for staging/production):

```
php artisan optimize-mcp:install
```

### Telescope MCP

[](#telescope-mcp)

Real-time monitoring, performance analysis, and debugging through Laravel Telescope.

Requires [Laravel Telescope](https://laravel.com/docs/telescope) to be installed first.

**Install the package:**

```
composer require skylence/laravel-telescope-mcp --dev
```

**Run the installer** (auto-detects your editor, optionally configures HTTP access):

```
php artisan telescope-mcp:install
```

**Manual MCP setup** (add to `.mcp.json`):

```
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "telescope": {
            "type": "stdio",
            "command": "php",
            "args": ["artisan", "mcp:start", "telescope"]
        }
    }
}
```

Restart your editor/AI tool after updating `.mcp.json`.
