SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Choosing the right Laravel package is risky: packages may be abandoned, incompatible with your Laravel or PHP version, or come from untrusted vendors. This Skill connects to the LaraPlugins.io MCP server to search packages and check their health before you add them to a project. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Package Search: Find Laravel packages by keyword with filters for health score, Laravel version, PHP version, and vendor. - Package Evaluation: Fetch detailed metrics for a specific package, including health score, last update date, version compatibility, and vendor risk indicators. - Use Case: You need an authentication package for a Laravel 12 project. Search with the keyword "authentication", filter by "Healthy" health score and Laravel 12 compatibility, then review details for candidates like spatie/laravel-permission or laravel/breeze before installing. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to find healthy Laravel 12 compatible packages for user permissions using the LaraPlugins MCP server.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find Laravel packages for a specific feature?

Use the SearchPluginTool from the LaraPlugins MCP server with a keyword like "permission" or "admin panel". You can filter results by health score, Laravel version, PHP version, or vendor to narrow down suitable packages.

How to check if a Laravel package is still maintained?

Use the GetPluginDetailsTool with the full Composer package name, such as spatie/laravel-permission. The response includes a health score, last activity date, and version history so you can judge whether the package is actively maintained.

Does the LaraPlugins MCP server require an API key?

No API key is required. The LaraPlugins MCP server is free for the Laravel community; you only need to add its HTTP URL to the mcpServers section of your Claude configuration.

Can I filter Laravel packages by Laravel or PHP version?

Yes. SearchPluginTool accepts laravel_compatibility parameters for versions 5 through 13 and php_compatibility for PHP 7.4 through 8.5, so results only include packages matching your target environment.

What does the package health score mean?

Packages are rated Healthy, Medium, Unhealthy, or Unrated based on maintenance activity and update recency. Healthy packages receive regular updates and are recommended for production applications, while Unhealthy ones may be abandoned.
