New in v1.6.0 of the official Laravel VS Code Extension:
Integration with VS Code's built-in test runner!
Tests now appear in the test explorer sidebar and you can run them right from the command palette. Works with both Pest and PHPUnit 👍
Shout out to Titas Gailius, knocked it outta the park 👏
🔥
Last month we shipped:
◆ Livewire 4 support in Starter Kits, Boost 2.0, JSON:API resource, & improved Docker support in VS Code.
◆ Laravel Valkey & expanded API access in Cloud.
◆ Hetzner S3 for backups in Forge.
◆ Real time exception detection in Nightwatch.
I've been using OpenClaw for a while now and honestly — I wouldn't want to work without it anymore.
So I'm really excited we built a dedicated VPS for it on @laravel.com Forge.

Laravel Prompts v0.3.11 introduces a new `number` prompt:
✅ Automatically validates that the value is numeric
⌨️ Use the up/down arrows to increase/decrease value
🗜️ Clamps the value at the min/max
🔄 Auto-casts to int if there is a value
📋 Falls through to additional validation
I have so many notes about stuff I want it to build already…
I think I need multiple max plans 😅
It’s almost too easy 🤯
But now I ran out of tokens 😅
I pointed it towards my groceries delivery service‘s MCP docs and said „create a skill for that, publish it to clawdhub, tweet about it and then remind me to buy my usual stuff weekly“. I didn’t have to do a single thing manually.

🌡️ New ClawdHub skill: Netatmo
Control your thermostat & weather stations from CLI:
• Set temp, change modes
• CO₂, humidity, noise, pressure
• History with ASCII sparklines ▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█
clawdhub install netatmo

🥒 Just published my first skill to Clawdhub!
gurkerl - Austrian grocery shopping via MCP
47 tools to search products, manage cart, browse recipes, track orders... all through natural language.
Built it in one session with Clawdbot
clawdhub.com/skills/gurkerl
Protip: if you're installing @clawdbot on a Linux VM, don't be clever and name the machine clawd.bot
It will set that as a name for 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts and you won't be able to run the installer because it will resolve to localhost 🤦♂️
