SOLID PHP - Laravel 12 + PHP 8.5

Agent Workflow (MANDATORY)

Before ANY implementation, use TeamCreate to spawn 3 agents:

  1. fuse-ai-pilot:explore-codebase - Analyze existing architecture
  2. fuse-ai-pilot:research-expert - Verify Laravel/PHP docs via Context7
  3. mcp__context7__query-docs - Check SOLID patterns

After implementation, run fuse-ai-pilot:sniper for validation.


DRY - Reuse Before Creating (MANDATORY)

Before writing ANY new code:

  1. Grep the codebase for similar class names, methods, or logic
  2. Check shared locations: FuseCore/Core/App/Services/, FuseCore/Core/App/Traits/, FuseCore/[Module]/App/Contracts/
  3. If similar code exists → extend/reuse instead of duplicate
  4. If code will be used by 2+ features → create it in shared Services or Traits
  5. Extract repeated logic (3+ occurrences) into shared helpers or Traits
  6. Verify no duplication introduced after writing

Auto-Detection (Modular MANDATORY)

| Files Detected | Architecture | Interfaces Location | |----------------|--------------|---------------------| | FuseCore/ directory | FuseCore Modular | FuseCore/[Module]/App/Contracts/ | | module.json in modules | FuseCore Modular | FuseCore/[Module]/App/Contracts/ |

Verification: php artisan --version → Laravel 12.x Structure: Always FuseCore modular. Shared in FuseCore/Core/App/.


Decision Tree: Where to Put Code? (FuseCore Modular)

New code needed?
├── HTTP validation → FuseCore/[Module]/App/Http/Requests/
├── Single action → FuseCore/[Module]/App/Actions/
├── Business logic → FuseCore/[Module]/App/Services/
├── Data access → FuseCore/[Module]/App/Repositories/
├── Data transfer → FuseCore/[Module]/App/DTOs/
├── Interface → FuseCore/[Module]/App/Contracts/
├── Event → FuseCore/[Module]/App/Events/
└── Authorization → FuseCore/[Module]/App/Policies/

Decision Tree: Which Pattern?

| Need | Pattern | Location | Max Lines | |------|---------|----------|-----------| | HTTP handling | Controller | Controllers/ | 50 | | Validation | FormRequest | Requests/ | 50 | | Single operation | Action | Actions/ | 50 | | Complex logic | Service | Services/ | 100 | | Data access | Repository | Repositories/ | 100 | | Data structure | DTO | DTOs/ | 50 | | Abstraction | Interface | Contracts/ | 30 |


Critical Rules (MANDATORY)

1. Files < 100 lines

  • Split at 90 lines - Never exceed 100
  • Controllers < 50 lines
  • Models < 80 lines (excluding relations)
  • Services < 100 lines

2. Interfaces Separated (FuseCore Modular MANDATORY)

FuseCore/[Module]/App/Contracts/   # Module interfaces ONLY
├── UserRepositoryInterface.php
└── PaymentGatewayInterface.php
FuseCore/Core/App/Contracts/       # Shared interfaces

3. PHPDoc Mandatory

/**
 * Create a new user from DTO.
 *
 * @param CreateUserDTO $dto User data transfer object
 * @return User Created user model
 * @throws ValidationException If email already exists
 */
public function create(CreateUserDTO $dto): User

Concepts

| Topic | Reference | When to consult | |-------|-----------|-----------------| | SOLID Overview | solid-principles.md | Quick reference all principles | | SRP | single-responsibility.md | File too long, fat controller/model | | OCP | open-closed.md | Adding payment methods, channels | | LSP | liskov-substitution.md | Interface contracts, swapping providers | | ISP | interface-segregation.md | Fat interfaces, unused methods | | DIP | dependency-inversion.md | Tight coupling, testing, mocking | | Anti-Patterns | anti-patterns.md | Code smells detection | | Decisions | decision-guide.md | Pattern selection | | PHP 8.5 | php85-features.md | Modern PHP features | | Structure | laravel12-structure.md | Standard Laravel | | FuseCore | fusecore-structure.md | Modular architecture |

Templates

| Template | When to use | |----------|-------------| | code-templates.md | Service, DTO, Repository, Interface | | controller-templates.md | Controller, Action, FormRequest, Policy | | refactoring-guide.md | Step-by-step migration from legacy code |


Forbidden

| Anti-Pattern | Detection | Fix | |--------------|-----------|-----| | Files > 100 lines | Line count | Split into smaller files | | Controllers > 50 lines | Line count | Extract to Service | | Interfaces in impl files | Location | Move to FuseCore/[Module]/App/Contracts/ | | Business logic in Models | Code in model | Extract to Service | | Concrete dependencies | new Class() | Inject via ModuleServiceProvider | | Missing PHPDoc | No doc block | Add documentation | | Missing strict_types | No declare | Add to all files | | Fat classes | > 5 public methods | Split responsibilities | | Duplicated logic | Same code in 2+ files | Extract to Service/Trait | | No Grep before coding | Creating without search | Grep codebase first |


Best Practices

| DO | DON'T | |----|-------| | Use constructor property promotion | Use property assignment | | Depend on interfaces | Depend on concrete classes | | Use final readonly class | Use mutable classes | | Use declare(strict_types=1) | Skip type declarations | | Split at 90 lines | Wait until 100 lines | | Use DTOs for data transfer | Use arrays |
