laravel-boost — Claude Code plugin: Laravel tools via MCP
An MCP server that hands Claude Laravel tooling: Artisan, Eloquent, routing, migrations and framework-aware code generation.
/plugin install laravel-boost@claude-plugins-official
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-officialWhat laravel-boost does
The plugin runs an MCP server that exposes Laravel tools to the agent. Claude can then run Artisan commands, build Eloquent queries, inspect routes and migrations, and generate code that follows framework conventions.
Install comes from Anthropic's official marketplace. Add the marketplace first, then install the plugin — the second command fails without the first. Your project needs to be a Laravel app, otherwise there is nothing for the tools to act on.
Published by Laravel under Apache-2.0. The payoff shows up in projects with a lot of database and routing churn: the agent picks the right command instead of you recalling the exact syntax.
What it helps with
- run an Artisan command without leaving the chat
- build an Eloquent query from a model description
- audit routes and how controllers connect
- generate a migration for a schema change
- write code that follows Laravel conventions, not generic PHP
Example prompts for the agent
- list the project routes and flag duplicates
- create a migration for an orders table with user_id and total
- write an Eloquent query for active users with their latest order

What does laravel-boost do?
It is an MCP server bundling Laravel tools. It gives the agent access to Artisan, Eloquent, routing, migrations and framework-specific code generation.
Does my project have to be Laravel?
Yes. The tools target a Laravel application, so on another framework or plain PHP they will not do what the plugin is installed for.
