README

A Laravel Boost extension that helps AI agents produce accurate, detailed implementation plans for NativePHP desktop applications.

Setup

Install NativePHP Boost using Composer:

composer require eloquage/laravel-nativephp-boost --dev

Then run the Boost installer and select NativePHP Boost when prompted:

php artisan boost:install

To verify installation, check your AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, or similar file for a new NativePHP Boost section.

Usage

1. Enable planning mode in your AI agent (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.)
2. Ask the agent to create a NativePHP Boost plan for your feature

Example prompt:

Create a NativePHP Boost plan for a desktop task management app.

The app should have a main window with a task list, a system tray icon,
and global shortcuts for quick task creation. Users can create, edit, and
delete tasks. Each task has a title, description, due date, priority, and
status. The app should use native notifications for reminders and save
tasks to a local SQLite database. Include a settings window for user
preferences and enable auto-start on login.

The main menu should have File, Edit, and View options. The system tray
icon should show a context menu with quick actions.

The agent will produce a detailed specification document ready for direct implementation, no guessing required.

NativePHP Boost provides comprehensive planning guides covering:

• Windows, menus, and system integration
• Dialogs, notifications, and clipboard operations
• Child processes, queues, and database management
