README

October CMS

Introduction

October CMS Boost extends Laravel Boost with October CMS-specific guidelines, skills, and tools that teach AI agents how to write idiomatic October CMS code.

While Laravel Boost provides the foundation (database tools, log inspection, documentation search), October CMS Boost adds the layer that understands plugins, Tailor blueprints, backend controllers, CMS themes, the AJAX framework, and October's model conventions.

Requirements

Installation

composer require october/boost --dev

Then run the Boost installer to configure your AI agent:

php artisan boost:install

During installation, select october/boost when prompted to include third-party guidelines.

MCP tools are registered automatically - no manual configuration needed.

What's Included

Guidelines

A core guideline file loaded into every AI conversation that covers:

  • Critical differences from Laravel (don't suggest Livewire, Inertia, Blade, etc.)
  • Architecture overview (plugins, themes, backend, Tailor, AJAX)
  • Model conventions (array-based relationships, Validation trait)
  • Event system and settings model patterns
  • Artisan commands and naming conventions

Skills

On-demand knowledge modules that AI agents activate when working in specific domains:

Skill Covers
octobercms-plugin-development Plugin.php, registration, migrations, settings models, events, console commands, localization, mail templates
octobercms-tailor-development Blueprints, content fields, entry records, multisite, navigation, columns
octobercms-backend-controllers Form/List/Relation/Import-Export/Reorder controllers, behavior overrides, filter scopes, YAML configs
octobercms-theme-development Pages, layouts, partials, Twig, components, theme.yaml customization, error pages, asset compilation
octobercms-ajax-framework Data attributes, jax API, handlers, partial updates, file uploads, validation, turbo router
octobercms-model-development Relationships, validation, traits, events, accessors/mutators, deferred bindings, eager loading, extending models

MCP Tools

Custom tools that give AI agents real-time access to your October CMS application:

Tool Purpose
SearchOctoberDocs Search official documentation for Laravel, October CMS, Larajax, and Meloncart
GetBlueprints List and inspect Tailor blueprint definitions
GetPluginRegistration List plugins with their components, permissions, navigation
GetThemeStructure Inspect the active theme's pages, layouts, and partials

How It Works

October CMS Boost uses Laravel Boost's extension system:

  • Guidelines are auto-discovered from resources/boost/guidelines/ - no configuration needed.
  • Skills are auto-discovered from resources/boost/skills/ - AI agents activate them on-demand when the task matches.
  • MCP Tools are auto-registered via the service provider - they appear alongside Laravel Boost's built-in tools.
