livewire-development

A set of instructions for building and troubleshooting Livewire components in Laravel. Livewire lets developers make interactive web pages using PHP and HTML, with less custom JavaScript.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when creating or changing Livewire components, debugging updates, adding real-time form validation, or building sortable interfaces.
Why use it?
It helps avoid mistakes with Livewire's component formats, reactive updates, forms, validation, and drag-and-drop behavior. It also helps match the conventions already used in a project.

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

livewire-development scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

94% identical to livewire-development — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Basic Usage

Creating Components


# Single-file component (SFC - default in v4)

# Creates: resources/views/components/⚡create-post.blade.php

php artisan make:livewire create-post

# Page component (SFC - Full Page in v4)

# Creates: resources/views/pages/⚡create-post.blade.php

php artisan make:livewire pages::create-post

# Multi-file component (MFC)

# Creates: resources/views/components/⚡create-post/create-post.php

#          resources/views/components/⚡create-post/create-post.blade.php

php artisan make:livewire create-post --mfc

# Class-based component (v3 style)

# Creates: app/Livewire/CreatePost.php AND resources/views/livewire/create-post.blade.php

php artisan make:livewire create-post --class

# With namespace

php artisan make:livewire Posts/CreatePost

Converting Between Formats

Use php artisan livewire:convert create-post to convert between single-file, multi-file, and class-based formats.

Choosing a Component Format

Always follow the project's existing conventions first. Before creating any component, inspect the project's existing Livewire components to determine the established format (SFC, MFC, or class-based) and directory structure. Check app/Livewire/, resources/views/components/, and resources/views/livewire/ for existing components. If the project already uses a consistent format, use that same format — even if it differs from the Livewire v4 defaults below. Only fall back to the v4 defaults (SFC in resources/views/components/) when no existing convention is established.

Also check config/livewire.php for make_command.type, make_command.emoji, component_locations, and component_namespaces overrides, which change the default format and where files are stored.

Component Format Reference

Format Flag Class Path View Path
Single-file (SFC) default resources/views/components/⚡create-post.blade.php (PHP + Blade in one file)
Full Page SFC pages::name resources/views/pages/⚡create-post.blade.php
Multi-file (MFC) --mfc resources/views/components/⚡create-post/create-post.php resources/views/components/⚡create-post/create-post.blade.php
Class-based --class app/Livewire/CreatePost.php resources/views/livewire/create-post.blade.php
View-based default (Blade-only) resources/views/components/⚡create-post.blade.php (Blade-only with functional state)

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
