PHP Pro Max - Backend Generator

When User Requests PHP Work

Follow this workflow for every PHP-related task:

1. Analyze Requirements

Extract from the user's request:

• Project type: REST API, web app, microservice, CMS, e-commerce, CLI
• Domain: web, database, queue, messaging, real-time
• Constraints: specific framework? PHP version? Docker? cloud?
• Scale: small project, enterprise, SaaS

Default Stack (always use unless user specifies otherwise)

Component	Default	Package
Framework	Laravel 11	laravel/laravel
Database	MySQL 8	illuminate/database (Eloquent)
Auth	JWT	tymon/jwt-auth or Laravel Sanctum
Cache	Redis	predis/predis
Queue	Redis/Database	Laravel Queue
Config	ENV vars	.env + config/*.php
Deploy	Docker Compose	Dockerfile + docker-compose.yml

Project structure: Laravel standard layout:

app/Http/Controllers/    — HTTP controllers
app/Http/Middleware/      — request middleware
app/Http/Requests/        — form request validation
app/Models/               — Eloquent models
app/Services/             — business logic
app/Repositories/         — data access layer
app/Exceptions/           — custom exceptions
config/                   — configuration files
database/migrations/      — database migrations
database/seeders/         — database seeders
routes/api.php            — API routes
routes/web.php            — web routes
resources/views/          — Blade templates
tests/Unit/               — unit tests
tests/Feature/            — feature tests

2. Generate Architecture System (REQUIRED for new projects)

python3 skills/php/scripts/search.py "<project description>" --arch-system -p "ProjectName"

This gives you: architecture, packages, error strategy, patterns, structure, testing approach.

3. Supplement with Domain Searches

Based on the project needs, search relevant domains:

# Patterns for the task
python3 skills/php/scripts/search.py "repository service pattern" --domain pattern

# Error handling approach
python3 skills/php/scripts/search.py "custom exception handler" --domain error

# Security patterns
python3 skills/php/scripts/search.py "sql injection xss prevention" --domain security

# Performance tips
python3 skills/php/scripts/search.py "opcache query optimization" --domain perf

# Testing patterns
python3 skills/php/scripts/search.py "phpunit mocking feature test" --domain test

4. Stack Guidelines

If using a specific framework/stack:

python3 skills/php/scripts/search.py "middleware authentication" --stack laravel
python3 skills/php/scripts/search.py "doctrine entity mapping" --stack symfony
python3 skills/php/scripts/search.py "route middleware" --stack slim

5. Implement

Apply all recommendations from the search results:

• Use recommended architecture and project structure
• Apply patterns (Repository, Service Layer, DTO, etc.)
• Follow error handling strategy
• Implement security best practices
• Add tests following testing strategy

6. Always Generate Docker Files

Every project MUST include these files:

Dockerfile (multi-stage build):

FROM composer:2 AS vendor
WORKDIR /app
COPY composer.json composer.lock ./
RUN composer install --no-dev --no-scripts --no-autoloader

FROM php:8.3-fpm-alpine AS app
RUN apk add --no-cache \
    libpng-dev libjpeg-turbo-dev freetype-dev \
    && docker-php-ext-configure gd --with-freetype --with-jpeg \
    && docker-php-ext-install gd pdo pdo_mysql opcache bcmath
WORKDIR /var/www
COPY --from=vendor /app/vendor vendor
COPY . .
RUN composer dump-autoload --optimize
RUN chown -R www-data:www-data storage bootstrap/cache
EXPOSE 9000
CMD ["php-fpm"]

docker-compose.yml (App + MySQL + Nginx + Redis):

services:
  app:
    build: .
    volumes:
      - .:/var/www
    depends_on:
      db:
        condition: service_healthy
      redis:
        condition: service_started
    environment:
      - DB_CONNECTION=mysql
      - DB_HOST=db
      - DB_PORT=3306
      - DB_DATABASE=appdb
      - DB_USERNAME=root
      - DB_PASSWORD=secret
      - REDIS_HOST=redis
  nginx:
    image: nginx:alpine
    ports:
      - "8080:80"
    volumes:
      - ./docker/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
      - .:/var/www
    depends_on:
      - app
  db:
    image: mysql:8.0
    ports:
      - "3306:3306"
    environment:
      MYSQL_DATABASE: appdb
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: secret
    volumes:
      - dbdata:/var/lib/mysql
    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD", "mysqladmin", "ping", "-h", "localhost"]
      interval: 5s
      timeout: 5s
      retries: 5
  redis:
    image: redis:7-alpine
    ports:
      - "6379:6379"
volumes:
  dbdata:

Makefile (must include):

serve:
	php artisan serve
test:
	php artisan test --parallel
lint:
	./vendor/bin/phpstan analyse --memory-limit=512M
format:
	./vendor/bin/pint
docker-up:
	docker-compose up -d --build
docker-down:
	docker-compose down
migrate:
	php artisan migrate
seed:
	php artisan db:seed

Pre-Delivery Checklist

Before delivering PHP code, verify:

• ./vendor/bin/phpstan analyse passes (level 6+)
• ./vendor/bin/pint or php-cs-fixer passes
• php artisan test or ./vendor/bin/phpunit passes
• No raw SQL queries (use Eloquent/Query Builder or prepared statements)
• All user input validated (Form Requests or manual validation)
• CSRF protection enabled on web routes
• Passwords hashed with bcrypt or argon2
• No sensitive data in error responses (production mode)
• Mass assignment protection ($fillable or $guarded)
• Database migrations are reversible
• Environment variables used for secrets (not hardcoded)
• Rate limiting on auth/API endpoints
• Proper exception handling (custom exceptions per domain)
• Type hints and return types on all methods
• PSR-12 coding standard followed
