README

One unified interface. Thirteen AI providers. Playground, budgets, tools, vision, and cost telemetry.

Swap OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Groq, Ollama, OpenRouter, Azure OpenAI, Together, Fireworks, or Perplexity via config or a visual Studio UI — every request is cost-tracked in USD, retried with exponential backoff, JSON-repaired automatically, and logged asynchronously with zero user latency (no queue workers required).

Built by Imran Dev BD · Laravel 10–13 · PHP 8.2+

Installation

# 1. Install via Composer
composer require imrandevbd/laravel-ai-hub

# 2. Publish configuration and migrations
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=ai-hub-config
php artisan migrate

Upgrading

composer update imrandevbd/laravel-ai-hub
php artisan config:clear
php artisan cache:clear
php artisan view:clear

Studio (/ai-hub) reads the package model catalog automatically after an upgrade. Re-publishing config is optional:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=ai-hub-config --force

--force overwrites a previously published config/ai-hub.php. Skip it if you customized that file — new models still appear in the dropdown.

If Studio still shows the old layout (no Playground tab, no Studio v1.4.0 badge), Laravel is using a published copy at resources/views/vendor/ai-hub/studio.blade.php. That file wins over the package. Either delete it, or refresh it:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=ai-hub-views --force
php artisan view:clear

Studio UI Highlights:

1. Light & Dark Theme: Header sun/moon toggle with preference saved in localStorage.
2. Per-Card Instant Save: Directly beside the API key and model selection on each provider card, an instant Save button lights up as soon as you type or make a change.
3. Clear Saved Status Badges:
   • ● Saved & ready (Green badge) — Configured credentials stored in database.
   • ● Unsaved edits (Amber badge) — Modified inputs waiting to be saved.
   • No key added (Slate badge) — Unconfigured provider.
   • ★ Default (Cyan badge) — Active #1 priority default provider.
4. Floating Quick-Save Bar: Automatically slides up if unsaved changes exist anywhere on the page, letting you save all modified providers with one click without scrolling.
5. Interactive Connection Tester: Test your API keys and models with live round-trip latency and token cost diagnostics.
6. Playground: Send or stream a prompt against any provider, attach an image URL, and save named templates. GPT-5 / o-series / DeepSeek-R1 sampling limits are applied automatically (temperature omitted, max_tokens remapped).
7. Spend budgets: Set a monthly USD cap on the Analytics tab (block requests or warn only).

Usage Guide

use ImranDevBd\AiHub\Facades\AIHub;

// 1. Basic Prompt (uses default provider & model)
$response = AIHub::prompt('Explain quantum computing in simple terms')->send();

echo $response->content;       // Generated text
echo $response->costUsd;       // Calculated token cost (e.g. 0.000412)
echo $response->latencyMs;     // Request duration (e.g. 312.4ms)
echo $response->totalTokens;   // Prompt + completion tokens

// 2. Specific Provider & Model Shortcuts
$response = AIHub::gemini('gemini-3.7-flash')
    ->prompt('Write a concise summary')
    ->send();

$response = AIHub::openai('gpt-5.6-luna')
    ->prompt('Write a high-performance database query')
    ->send();

$response = AIHub::claude('claude-3-7-sonnet-latest')
    ->prompt('Refactor this architecture')
    ->send();

$response = AIHub::deepseek('deepseek-reasoner')
    ->prompt('Solve this complex mathematical problem')
    ->send();

JSON Auto-Recovery (Fixes Malformed LLM JSON)

LLMs often wrap JSON in markdown blocks or cut off closing brackets. recoverJson() automatically repairs the syntax:

$data = AIHub::gemini()
    ->prompt('Return a user profile JSON object')
    ->recoverJson()
    ->send()
    ->json(); // Returns clean PHP array

Streaming Responses

foreach (AIHub::openai()->prompt('Write a technical essay')->stream() as $chunk) {
    echo $chunk;
    flush();
}

Tools, vision, cache, and prompt templates

// Vision
$response = AIHub::openai()
    ->prompt('Describe this image')
    ->image('https://example.com/photo.jpg')
    ->send();

// Function tools (OpenAI-style schema; mapped for Claude & Gemini)
$response = AIHub::openai()->tools([[
    'type' => 'function',
    'function' => [
        'name' => 'get_weather',
        'description' => 'Get the weather for a city',
        'parameters' => [
            'type' => 'object',
            'properties' => [
                'city' => ['type' => 'string'],
            ],
            'required' => ['city'],
        ],
    ],
]])->prompt('Weather in Dhaka?')->send();

$calls = $response->toolCalls; // run the tool, then continue with messages()

// Response cache (hits log type=cache_hit at $0)
$response = AIHub::gemini()->prompt($faq)->cache(3600)->send();

// Named templates saved in Studio Playground ({ticket} is interpolated)
$response = AIHub::promptTemplate('support.reply', ['ticket' => $body])->send();

// New providers
AIHub::azure('gpt-4o')->prompt('Hello from Azure')->send();
AIHub::together()->prompt('Hello from Together')->send();
AIHub::fireworks()->prompt('Hello from Fireworks')->send();
AIHub::perplexity('sonar-pro')->prompt('What shipped this week?')->send();

Vector Embeddings

$vector = AIHub::openai()
    ->model('text-embedding-3-small')
    ->embed('Laravel AI Hub semantic search')
    ->first(); // Returns float array vector

Multi-turn Chat Conversations

$response = AIHub::claude()->messages([
    ['role' => 'system', 'content' => 'You are a Senior Laravel Architect.'],
    ['role' => 'user', 'content' => 'How should I structure domain actions?'],
    ['role' => 'assistant', 'content' => 'Use single-responsibility action classes.'],
    ['role' => 'user', 'content' => 'Give me an example.'],
])->send();

Tagging Workflows & Background Jobs

Tag your requests to trace spend by feature in Analytics:

AIHub::gemini()
    ->forJob('invoice-ocr')
    ->prompt($invoicePrompt)
    ->send();

Failover Priority Chain

Configure provider priority in /ai-hub or in config/ai-hub.php:

'priority' => [
    'gemini',      // #1 Tried first
    'openai',      // #2 If Gemini is rate-limited or down
    'claude',      // #3
    'grok',        // #4
    'deepseek',    // #5
    'mistral',     // #6
    'groq',        // #7
    'ollama',      // #8
    'openrouter',  // #9
    'azure',       // #10
    'together',    // #11
    'fireworks',   // #12
    'perplexity',  // #13
],
'failover_enabled' => true,

Runtime execution:
#1 Gemini fails (429 Rate Limit) -> Auto Failover -> #2 OpenAI succeeds!

How Logging Works (Zero Queue Worker Required)

The package captures comprehensive telemetry without slowing down your user's web requests:

// config/ai-hub.php
'logging' => [
    'enabled' => env('AI_HUB_LOGGING', true),
    'async' => env('AI_HUB_LOGGING_ASYNC', 'after_response'), // 'after_response', 'queue', or 'sync'
    'prune_days' => 90, // Automatic log pruning
],

Mode	Worker Needed?	User Latency	Description
after_response (Default)	No ❌	0ms	Executes database logging immediately after HTTP response is returned to browser.
queue	Yes ✅	0ms	Pushes TrackAiUsageJob to your background queue (Redis/Database/Horizon).
sync	No ❌	~1-2ms	Synchronous direct database insert (ideal for testing/CLI).

Automatic Log Pruning

AiRequestLog uses Laravel's MassPrunable trait. Clean up old logs automatically in your scheduler (routes/console.php):

use ImranDevBd\AiHub\Models\AiRequestLog;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schedule;

Schedule::command('model:prune', ['--model' => [AiRequestLog::class]])->daily();

Security & Access Control for /ai-hub

The package includes built-in AuthorizeStudio middleware to protect /ai-hub Studio from unauthorized access.

1. Dedicated Callback (AIHub::auth) — Recommended

In your app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php (or AuthServiceProvider.php):

use ImranDevBd\AiHub\Facades\AIHub;

public function boot(): void
{
    AIHub::auth(function ($request) {
        return app()->environment('local') ||
               ($request->user() && in_array($request->user()->email, ['[e-mail]'])) ||
               ($request->user() && $request->user()->hasRole('admin'));
    });
}

2. Role & Email Protection via .env

# Automatically verifies $user->hasRole(), $user->role, or is_admin
AI_HUB_ROLES="admin,super-admin,developer"

# Optional: Restrict to specific admin emails
AI_HUB_EMAILS="[e-mail],[e-mail]"

3. Laravel Gate (viewAiHub)

use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Gate;

public function boot(): void
{
    Gate::define('viewAiHub', function (User $user) {
        return in_array($user->role, ['admin', 'developer']);
    });
}

4. Custom Middleware Stack via .env

AI_HUB_MIDDLEWARE="auth,role:admin"

• Guests: Redirected to /login (or 403 for API calls).
• Unauthorized users: Blocked with 403 Forbidden.
• Local Environment: Automatically enabled during local development.

Filament admin

When Filament is installed, the panel sidebar gets an AI Hub item that opens Studio (/ai-hub) in a new tab. Dashboard widget stats do the same.

use ImranDevBd\AiHub\Filament\AiHubPlugin;

$panel->plugin(AiHubPlugin::make()); // optional — auto-registered if omitted

AI_HUB_FILAMENT=true
AI_HUB_FILAMENT_NEW_TAB=true
# AI_HUB_FILAMENT_GROUP="Settings"

Analytics API

Access aggregated telemetry programmatically:

// 30-day overview summary
$summary = AIHub::analytics()->summary(now()->subDays(30));
// ['total_cost_usd' => 12.45, 'requests' => 1420, 'failure_rate' => 0.4, 'json_recovery_rate' => 3.2]

// Breakdown of spend per provider
$costs = AIHub::analytics()->costByProvider();

// Latency percentiles
$latency = AIHub::analytics()->latencyPercentiles('gemini');
// ['p50' => 240, 'p95' => 580, 'p99' => 890]

// Top tracked jobs by token volume
$topJobs = AIHub::analytics()->topJobs(10);

// Daily spending trend
$daily = AIHub::analytics()->dailyCost(30);
