This one gives Claude the context to help you build Laravel applications following PHP 8.1+ conventions and framework best practices. It pushes you toward SOLID principles, the repository pattern, form requests for validation, and proper Eloquent usage while steering you away from raw SQL. The guidance covers the full stack from routing and Blade templating to API resources, queue jobs, and testing with PHPUnit. Honestly most useful when you want to avoid common Laravel pitfalls like N+1 queries or when you need someone to remind you that Laravel already has a built-in solution for what you're about to overengineer.
