Short answer

How can I use AI to audit my Laravel code?

Your AI uses the Laravel Excellence Prover to scan your files for violations of professional patterns and architectural constraints. It identifies where your logic breaks your established rules. You'll get a clear breakdown of every issue found.

Audit outcomes

Where every issue lands.

The AI categorizes findings based on how much they break your project's structure.

VIOLATION

Pattern mismatches

The AI flags code that ignores standard Laravel conventions. You get a list of where your logic doesn't match framework patterns.

ARCHITECTURE

Constraint breaks

This identifies when a class or method violates your specific architectural boundaries. It keeps your service layers and controllers separated.

REFACTOR

Cleanup targets

The AI points out messy code that violates clean code principles. These are the spots where you should tighten up your logic.

HUMAN

Final decisions

The AI won't change your code for you. You receive the report and decide which fixes are necessary for your implementation.

The workflow

What your AI does when code arrives.

The AI acts as a specialized reviewer that knows exactly what a professional Laravel app should look like.

  1. Scan codebase

    Your agent reads through your local files to understand the current implementation and structure.

  2. Check patterns

    The AI compares your logic against professional Laravel standards and your specific architectural rules.

    validate_laravel_excellence
  3. Identify issues

    It isolates specific lines where the code fails to meet the required quality constraints.

    validate_laravel_excellence
  4. Report findings

    The agent summarizes the violations so you can address them in your editor.

FAQ

How the audit behaves

  • 01

    Will the AI automatically rewrite my code?

    No. The AI only identifies and reports issues. You remain in full control of every code change.

  • 02

    Can the AI fix my architectural errors?

    No. It points out where the errors are, but you have to perform the actual refactoring yourself.

  • 03

    Does it check for security vulnerabilities?

    It checks for violations of Laravel patterns and architectural constraints, but it is not a dedicated security scanner.

  • 04

    How does it know my specific project rules?

    The AI reads your codebase to understand the existing patterns and constraints you have already established.

  • 05

    Can I run this on a remote repository?

    The AI works through your MCP-compatible client, so it audits the files your client has access to.
