Deploys and manages Laravel applications on Laravel Cloud using the `cloud` CLI. Use when the user wants to deploy an app, ship to cloud, create/manage environments, databases, caches, domains, instances, background processes, check billing/usage/spend, or any Laravel Cloud infrastructure. Triggers on deploy, ship, cloud management, environment setup, database provisioning, billing/usage queries, and similar cloud operations.
TRIGGER when working with ai-sdk which is Laravel official first-party AI SDK. Activate when building, editing AI agents, chatbots, text generation, image generation, audio/TTS, transcription/STT, embeddings, RAG, vector stores, reranking, structured output, streaming, conversation memory, tools, queueing, broadcasting, and provider failover across OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Azure, Groq, xAI, DeepSeek, Mistral, Ollama, ElevenLabs, Cohere, Jina, and VoyageAI. Invoke when the user references ai-sdk, the `Laravel\Ai\` namespace, or this project's AI features — not for other AI packages used directly.
ACTIVATE when the user works on authentication in Laravel. This includes login, registration, password reset, email verification, two-factor authentication (2FA/TOTP/QR codes/recovery codes), passkeys, profile updates, password confirmation, or any auth-related routes and controllers. Activate when the user mentions Fortify, auth, authentication, login, register, signup, forgot password, verify email, 2FA, passkeys, WebAuthn, or references app/Actions/Fortify/, CreateNewUser, UpdateUserProfileInformation, FortifyServiceProvider, config/fortify.php, or auth guards. Fortify is the frontend-agnostic authentication backend for Laravel that registers all auth routes and controllers. Also activate when building SPA or headless authentication, customizing login redirects, overriding response contracts like LoginResponse, or configuring login throttling. Do NOT activate for Laravel Passport (OAuth2 API tokens), Socialite (OAuth social login), or non-auth Laravel features.
Develops Inertia.js v3 React client-side applications. Activates when creating React pages, forms, or navigation; using <Link>, <Form>, useForm, useHttp, setLayoutProps, or router; working with deferred props, prefetching, optimistic updates, instant visits, or polling; or when user mentions React with Inertia, React pages, React forms, or React navigation.
Apply this skill whenever writing, reviewing, or refactoring Laravel PHP code. This includes creating or modifying controllers, models, migrations, form requests, policies, jobs, scheduled commands, service classes, and Eloquent queries. Triggers for N+1 and query performance issues, caching strategies, authorization and security patterns, validation, error handling, queue and job configuration, route definitions, and architectural decisions. Also use for Laravel code reviews and refactoring existing Laravel code to follow best practices. Covers any task involving Laravel backend PHP code patterns.
Manages OAuth social authentication with Laravel Socialite. Activate when adding social login providers; configuring OAuth redirect/callback flows; retrieving authenticated user details; customizing scopes or parameters; setting up community providers; testing with Socialite fakes; or when the user mentions social login, OAuth, Socialite, or third-party authentication.
Always invoke when the user's message includes 'tailwind' in any form. Also invoke for: building responsive grid layouts (multi-column card grids, product grids), flex/grid page structures (dashboards with sidebars, fixed topbars, mobile-toggle navs), styling UI components (cards, tables, navbars, pricing sections, forms, inputs, badges), adding dark mode variants, fixing spacing or typography, and Tailwind v3/v4 work. The core use case: writing or fixing Tailwind utility classes in HTML templates (Blade, JSX, Vue). Skip for backend PHP logic, database queries, API routes, JavaScript with no HTML/CSS component, CSS file audits, build tool configuration, and vanilla CSS.
Use this skill for Laravel Wayfinder which auto-generates typed functions for Laravel controllers and routes. ALWAYS use this skill when frontend code needs to call backend routes or controller actions. Trigger when: connecting any React/Vue/Svelte/Inertia frontend to Laravel controllers, routes, building end-to-end features with both frontend and backend, wiring up forms or links to backend endpoints, fixing route-related TypeScript errors, importing from @/actions or @/routes, or running wayfinder:generate. Use Wayfinder route functions instead of hardcoded URLs. Covers: wayfinder() vite plugin, .url()/.get()/.post()/.form(), query params, route model binding, tree-shaking. Do not use for backend-only task
