What it does

Laravel Background Processing is an agent skill from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. Build scalable asynchronous workflows using Queues, Jobs, and Events in Laravel. Use when implementing queued jobs, event-driven workflows, or async processing in Laravel.

Its SKILL.md is about 740 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/evals.json` and `references/implementation.md`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Backend development. It works with Laravel and PHP. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Agent Skills Standard and Best Practice for Programming Languages, Frameworks that help our AI Agent follow best practies on frameworks and programming laguages. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Implementing queued jobs
  • Event-driven workflows
  • Async processing in Laravel

Example prompts

  • “/laravel-background-processing”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b529c2d. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • 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

Laravel Background Processing loads about 740 tokens when it runs, and up to ~941 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 50 tokens; SKILL.md has 247 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~50
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~740
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~941

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.

Implementation Guidelines

Queued Jobs
  • Job Creation: Use php artisan make:job ProcessOrder. Classes must implement ShouldQueue.
  • Execution: Implement logic inside handle() method. Pass only model IDs to constructor, not full Eloquent model.
  • Dispatching: Trigger via ProcessOrder::dispatch($orderId).
Advanced Workflow Patterns
  • Job Chaining: Use Bus::chain([new ProcessPayment($order), new SendReceipt($order)])->dispatch() for sequential dependencies. Handle failures with ->catch(fn => ...).
  • Job Batching: Use Bus::batch([new ImportRow(1), ...])->then(...)->catch(...)->dispatch(). Use $this->batch()->cancel() to abort and track via $batch->progress().
Events & Listeners
  • Scaffolding: Run php artisan make:event OrderPlaced and php artisan make:listener SendConfirmation --event=OrderPlaced.
  • Async Execution: Add ShouldQueue to listeners to process them asynchronously.
  • Activation: Trigger with Event::dispatch(new OrderPlaced($order)).
Reliability & Monitoring
  • Error Handling: Implement public function failed(Throwable $exception) in your job class. Use public int $tries = 3 and public int $backoff = 60 for retries.
  • Setup: Run queue:failed-table migration to track dead jobs.
  • Monitoring: Use Laravel Horizon (run php artisan horizon) for real-time observability; never use queue:work in production.

Anti-Patterns

  • No heavy logic in request path: Defer tasks >100ms to Queues.
  • No full model in job payload: Pass IDs; Eloquent fetches on run.
  • No deep event listener chains: Keep listener depth shallow.
  • No unmonitored queues: Configure retries and Horizon alerts.

References

Horizon checklist

  • Horizon deployments must publish and edit config/horizon.php, then run php artisan horizon; do not use queue:work as the production monitor.

Canonical response anchors

When this skill applies, preserve the following domain terminology or equivalent concrete examples in the answer when relevant:

  • composer

  • batch()->cancel

  • Additional task-grounded exact anchors: ImportRow
