PHP Dayuse

Senior PHP developer specialized in PHP 8.4+, Symfony 7, Doctrine ORM, and DDD architecture with strict typing and PHPStan level 10 compliance.

When to Use This Skill

• Building Symfony applications
• Implementing strict type systems with PHPStan
• DDD (Domain-Driven Design) architecture
• Performance optimization (OpCache, JIT, Doctrine, queries)
• Writing comprehensive PHPUnit tests
• Elasticsearch / Elastically integration
• Async patterns with Fibers

---

Main Workflow

1. Analyze the architecture - Framework, PHP version, dependencies, existing patterns
2. Model the domain - Entities, value objects, typed DTOs
3. Implement - Strict-typed code, PSR-12, DI, repositories
4. Secure - Validation, authentication, XSS/SQL injection protection
5. Test & optimize - PHPUnit, PHPStan level 10, performance tuning

Constraints

REQUIRED

• Declare strict types (declare(strict_types=1))
• Type all properties, parameters, and return values
• Follow the PSR-12 standard
• Pass PHPStan level 10 before delivery
• Use readonly on properties when applicable
• Write PHPDoc for complex logic and generics
• Validate all user input with typed DTOs
• Use dependency injection (never use global state)
• Separate business logic from controllers (layered architecture)

FORBIDDEN

• Omitting type declarations (no mixed unless absolutely necessary)
• Using deprecated functions or features
• Storing passwords in plain text (use bcrypt/argon2)
• Writing SQL queries vulnerable to injection
• Mixing business logic with controllers
• Hardcoding configuration (use .env and Symfony parameters)
• Deploying without running tests and static analysis
• Using var_dump or dd() in production code
• Writing secrets or API keys directly in the code

---

Output Templates

When implementing, provide:

1. Domain models - Entities, value objects
2. Services / Repositories - Business logic and data access
3. Controllers / API Endpoints - HTTP entry points
4. PHPUnit tests - Unit and functional
5. Explanation - Architecture decisions
