What it does

Octane Frankenphp Gotchas is an agent skill from AratKruglik/claude-laravel. Use when debugging unexpected behavior in Laravel Octane with FrankenPHP - stale data between requests, memory leaks, singleton contamination, static property state, or anything that "works once then breaks".

Its SKILL.md is about 730 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Performance optimization, Backend development and Debugging. It works with Laravel and PHP.

When your agent uses it

  • Debugging unexpected behavior in Laravel Octane with FrankenPHP - stale data between requests
  • Singleton contamination
  • Static property state
  • Anything that works once then breaks

Example prompts

  • “works once then breaks”
  • “/octane-frankenphp-gotchas”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Look for static properties modified during a request
  2. Look for singletons that capture request-specific data (auth, locale, tenant)
  3. Check app()->scoped() vs app()->singleton()
  4. Enable Telescope — compare request #1 vs #2 memory/queries
  5. Test with OCTANE_MAX_REQUESTS=1 to confirm FPM-style reset fixes it

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 00e8b99. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are php).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Octane Frankenphp Gotchas loads about 732 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 59 tokens; SKILL.md has 212 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~59
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~732

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 212 words (~732 tokens).

“Laravel Octane keeps the application bootstrapped between requests. State that resets in PHP-FPM persists in Octane.”
