+name: laravel-plugin-discovery
+description: Discover and evaluate Laravel packages via LaraPlugins.io MCP. Use when the user wants to find plugins, check package health, or assess Laravel/PHP compatibility.
+origin: ECC

+
+# Laravel Plugin Discovery
+
+Find, evaluate, and choose healthy Laravel packages using the LaraPlugins.io MCP server.
+
+## When to Activate
+
+- User wants to find Laravel packages for a specific feature (e.g. "auth", "permissions", "admin panel")
+- User asks "what package should I use for..." or "is there a Laravel package for..."
+- User wants to check if a package is actively maintained
+- User needs to verify Laravel version compatibility
+- User wants to assess package health before adding to a project
+
+## MCP Requirement
+
+LaraPlugins MCP server must be configured. Add to your `~/.claude.json` mcpServers:
+
+```json
+"laraplugins": {
+  "type": "streamable-http",
+  "url": "https://laraplugins.io/mcp/plugins"
+}
+```
+
+No API key required — the server is free for the Laravel community.
+
+## MCP Tools
+
+The LaraPlugins MCP provides two primary tools:
+
+### SearchPluginTool
+
+Search packages by keyword, health score, vendor, and version compatibility.
+
+**Parameters:**
+- `text_search` (string, optional): Keyword to search (e.g. "permission", "admin", "api")
+- `health_score` (string, optional): Filter by health band — `Healthy`, `Medium`, `Unhealthy`, or `Unrated`
+- `laravel_compatibility` (string, optional): Filter by Laravel version — `"5"`, `"6"`, `"7"`, `"8"`, `"9"`, `"10"`, `"11"`, `"12"`, `"13"`
+- `php_compatibility` (string, optional): Filter by PHP version — `"7.4"`, `"8.0"`, `"8.1"`, `"8.2"`, `"8.3"`, `"8.4"`, `"8.5"`
+- `vendor_filter` (string, optional): Filter by vendor name (e.g. "spatie", "laravel")
+- `page` (number, optional): Page number for pagination
+
+### GetPluginDetailsTool
+
+Fetch detailed metrics, readme content, and version history for a specific package.
+
+**Parameters:**
+- `package` (string, required): Full Composer package name (e.g. "spatie/laravel-permission")
+- `include_versions` (boolean, optional): Include version history in response
+
+---
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Finding Packages
+
+When the user wants to discover packages for a feature:
+
+1. Use `SearchPluginTool` with relevant keywords
+2. Apply filters for health score, Laravel version, or PHP version
+3. Review the results with package names, descriptions, and health indicators
+
+### Evaluating Packages
+
+When the user wants to assess a specific package:
+
+1. Use `GetPluginDetailsTool` with the package name
+2. Review health score, last updated date, Laravel version support
+3. Check vendor reputation and risk indicators
+
+### Checking Compatibility
+
+When the user needs Laravel or PHP version compatibility:
+
+1. Search with `laravel_compatibility` filter set to their version
+2. Or get details on a specific package to see its supported versions
+
+---
+
+## Examples
+
+### Example: Find Authentication Packages
+
+```
+SearchPluginTool({
+  text_search: "authentication",
+  health_score: "Healthy"
+})
+```
+
+Returns packages matching "authentication" with healthy status:
+- spatie/laravel-permission
+- laravel/breeze
+- laravel/passport
+- etc.
+
+### Example: Find Laravel 12 Compatible Packages
+
+```
+SearchPluginTool({
+  text_search: "admin panel",
+  laravel_compatibility: "12"
+})
+```
+
+Returns packages compatible with Laravel 12.
+
+### Example: Get Package Details
+
+```
+GetPluginDetailsTool({
+  package: "spatie/laravel-permission",
+  include_versions: true
+})
+```
+
+Returns:
+- Health score and last activity
+- Laravel/PHP version support
+- Vendor reputation (risk score)
+- Version history
+- Brief description
+
+### Example: Find Packages by Vendor
+
+```
+SearchPluginTool({
+  vendor_filter: "spatie",
+  health_score: "Healthy"
+})
+```
+
+Returns all healthy packages from vendor "spatie".
+
+---
+
+## Filtering Best Practices
+
+### By Health Score
+
+| Health Band | Meaning |
+|-------------|---------|
+| `Healthy` | Active maintenance, recent updates |
+| `Medium` | Occasional updates, may need attention |
+| `Unhealthy` | Abandoned or infrequently maintained |
+| `Unrated` | Not yet assessed |
+
+**Recommendation**: Prefer `Healthy` packages for production applications.
+
+### By Laravel Version
+
+| Version | Notes |
+|---------|-------|
+| `12` | Latest Laravel (2025) |
+| `11` | Current stable |
+| `10` | Still widely used |
+| `9` | Legacy but common |
+| `5`-`8` | Deprecated |
+
+**Recommendation**: Match the target project's Laravel version.
+
+### Combining Filters
+
+```typescript
+// Find healthy, Laravel 12 compatible packages for permissions
+SearchPluginTool({
+  text_search: "permission",
+  health_score: "Healthy",
+  laravel_compatibility: "12"
+})
+```
+
+---
+
+## Response Interpretation
+
+### Search Results
+
+Each result includes:
+- Package name (e.g. `spatie/laravel-permission`)
+- Brief description
+- Health status indicator
+- Laravel version support badges
+
+### Package Details
+
+The detailed response includes:
+- **Health Score**: Numeric or band indicator
+- **Last Activity**: When the package was last updated
+- **Laravel Support**: Version compatibility matrix
+- **PHP Support**: PHP version compatibility
+- **Risk Score**: Vendor trust indicators
+- **Version History**: Recent release timeline
+
+---
+
+## Common Use Cases
+
+| Scenario | Recommended Approach |
+|----------|---------------------|
+| "What package for auth?" | Search "auth" with healthy filter |
+| "Is spatie/package still maintained?" | Get details, check health score |
+| "Need Laravel 12 packages" | Search with laravel_compatibility: "12" |
+| "Find admin panel packages" | Search "admin panel", review results |
+| "Check vendor reputation" | Search by vendor, check details |
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Always filter by health** — Use `health_score: "Healthy"` for production projects
+2. **Match Laravel version** — Always check `laravel_compatibility` matches the target project
+3. **Check vendor reputation** — Prefer packages from known vendors (spatie, laravel, etc.)
+4. **Review before recommending** — Use GetPluginDetailsTool for a comprehensive assessment
+5. **No API key needed** — The MCP is free, no authentication required
