senoldogann 23d743b92c fix(skills): add missing YAML frontmatter to 7 skills
Codex CLI requires YAML frontmatter (---) in SKILL.md files.
6 skills were missing frontmatter entirely; laravel-verification had
a bare colon in its description causing an invalid YAML parse error.

# Laravel Verification Loop
Run before PRs, after major changes, and pre-deploy.
## When to Use
- Before opening a pull request for a Laravel project
- After major refactors or dependency upgrades
- Pre-deployment verification for staging or production
- Running full lint -> test -> security -> deploy readiness pipeline
## How It Works
- Run phases sequentially from environment checks through deployment readiness so each layer builds on the last.
- Environment and Composer checks gate everything else; stop immediately if they fail.
- Linting/static analysis should be clean before running full tests and coverage.
- Security and migration reviews happen after tests so you verify behavior before data or release steps.
- Build/deploy readiness and queue/scheduler checks are final gates; any failure blocks release.
## Phase 1: Environment Checks
```bash
php -v
composer --version
php artisan --version
```
- Verify `.env` is present and required keys exist
- Confirm `APP_DEBUG=false` for production environments
- Confirm `APP_ENV` matches the target deployment (`production`, `staging`)
If using Laravel Sail locally:
```bash
./vendor/bin/sail php -v
./vendor/bin/sail artisan --version
```
## Phase 1.5: Composer and Autoload
```bash
composer validate
composer dump-autoload -o
```
## Phase 2: Linting and Static Analysis
```bash
vendor/bin/pint --test
vendor/bin/phpstan analyse
```
If your project uses Psalm instead of PHPStan:
```bash
vendor/bin/psalm
```
## Phase 3: Tests and Coverage
```bash
php artisan test
```
Coverage (CI):
```bash
XDEBUG_MODE=coverage php artisan test --coverage
```
CI example (format -> static analysis -> tests):
```bash
vendor/bin/pint --test
vendor/bin/phpstan analyse
XDEBUG_MODE=coverage php artisan test --coverage
```
## Phase 4: Security and Dependency Checks
```bash
composer audit
```
## Phase 5: Database and Migrations
```bash
php artisan migrate --pretend
php artisan migrate:status
```
- Review destructive migrations carefully
- Ensure migration filenames follow `Y_m_d_His_*` (e.g., `2025_03_14_154210_create_orders_table.php`) and describe the change clearly
- Ensure rollbacks are possible
- Verify `down()` methods and avoid irreversible data loss without explicit backups
## Phase 6: Build and Deployment Readiness
```bash
php artisan optimize:clear
php artisan config:cache
php artisan route:cache
php artisan view:cache
```
- Ensure cache warmups succeed in production configuration
- Verify queue workers and scheduler are configured
- Confirm `storage/` and `bootstrap/cache/` are writable in the target environment
## Phase 7: Queue and Scheduler Checks
```bash
php artisan schedule:list
php artisan queue:failed
```
If Horizon is used:
```bash
php artisan horizon:status
```
If `queue:monitor` is available, use it to check backlog without processing jobs:
```bash
php artisan queue:monitor default --max=100
```
Active verification (staging only): dispatch a no-op job to a dedicated queue and run a single worker to process it (ensure a non-`sync` queue connection is configured).
```bash
php artisan tinker --execute="dispatch((new App\\Jobs\\QueueHealthcheck())->onQueue('healthcheck'))"
php artisan queue:work --once --queue=healthcheck
```
Verify the job produced the expected side effect (log entry, healthcheck table row, or metric).
Only run this on non-production environments where processing a test job is safe.
## Examples
Minimal flow:
```bash
php -v
composer --version
php artisan --version
composer validate
vendor/bin/pint --test
vendor/bin/phpstan analyse
php artisan test
composer audit
php artisan migrate --pretend
php artisan config:cache
php artisan queue:failed
```
CI-style pipeline:
```bash
composer validate
composer dump-autoload -o
vendor/bin/pint --test
vendor/bin/phpstan analyse
XDEBUG_MODE=coverage php artisan test --coverage
composer audit
php artisan migrate --pretend
php artisan optimize:clear
php artisan config:cache
php artisan route:cache
php artisan view:cache
php artisan schedule:list
```
