Introduction

This page is inspired by Laravel’s AI Assisted Development documentation. Laravel Boost is developed by the Laravel team, and you can find out more about it in their official docs, alongside other information about building Laravel projects with AI assistance.
AI coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot can significantly accelerate your Filament development. Filament includes an Agent Skill for Laravel Boost that teaches AI agents how to write idiomatic Filament code and follow framework conventions. Laravel Boost even allows your agent to search the Filament documentation for answers when it encounters unfamiliar requirements.

Installing Laravel Boost

Install Boost as a development dependency:
Then run the interactive installer. Select Agent Skills, followed by filament/filament (skills) when prompted:
The installer will detect your IDE and AI agents, generating the necessary configuration files. To verify installation, check your agent’s skills directory for filament-development/SKILL.md.
If you installed Boost before Filament provided an Agent Skill, rerun php artisan boost:install and select Agent Skills. Running php artisan boost:update alone does not enable new features.
For more information about Laravel Boost, including available tools, documentation search, and IDE integration, see the Laravel AI documentation.

Filament Blueprint

The Filament skill is designed primarily for implementing agents: it helps agents write correct Filament code once they know what to build. However, the quality of AI-generated code depends heavily on the quality of the plan. When an implementing agent has a clear, detailed specification, it can focus entirely on writing correct code rather than guessing at requirements or making assumptions about your intent. For complex features, you may find that agents struggle with the planning phase: choosing the right components, structuring relationships, and anticipating edge cases. A vague plan leads to vague code, and you end up spending more time correcting the agent than you saved by using it. Filament Blueprint is a premium extension that helps AI agents produce accurate, detailed implementation plans for Filament. Blueprint 2.x supports Filament v5. Blueprint bridges the gap between what you want and what AI agents build. Instead of hoping an agent understands Filament’s conventions, Blueprint provides a structured planning skill that produces unambiguous specification documents. A blueprint specifies everything an implementing agent needs:
  • Models: Attributes, casts, relationships, and enums with exact syntax
  • Resources: Full namespaces, scaffold commands, and configuration
  • Forms: Field components, validation rules, and layout structure
  • Tables: Columns, filters, actions, and sorting behavior
  • Authorization: Plain-English policy rules that translate directly to code
  • Testing: What to test and how to verify it works
  • More: Reactive fields, wizards, imports/exports, bulk actions, widgets, multi-tenancy, and more
The planning skill covers details that agents commonly get wrong, like namespaces, method names, component selection, and nested layout calculations, so the implementing agent can write correct code on the first try. The planning skill is designed for planning agents only, so it shouldn’t consume the implementing agent’s context window. The planning agent copies all necessary details (namespaces, documentation URLs to fetch, exact method syntax) into the blueprint itself, so the implementing agent has everything it needs without loading the planning skill. If you’re interested in an example of a plan that GPT-6 Astra can write with and without Blueprint, visit the Blueprint Plan Example section.

Installing Blueprint

Use Blueprint 2.x with Filament v5. Once you have purchased a license for Blueprint, install it via Composer:
Then run the Boost installer. Select Agent Skills, followed by filament/blueprint (skills) when prompted:
To verify installation, check your agent’s skills directory for planning-filament/SKILL.md, reviewing-filament-plans/SKILL.md, and filament-security-audit/SKILL.md.
To access your purchased license, sign in to Filament Packages with the email address used to purchase your Blueprint license.

Using Blueprint

Writing a blueprint

To create a blueprint, enable planning mode in your AI agent, ask it to use the planning-filament skill, and specify a Markdown file for the plan:

Implementing a blueprint

Read the saved plan and resolve its outstanding business choices. Then switch out of planning mode and give the implementing agent the saved blueprint and access to your application checkout:

Reviewing an implementation against a blueprint

After implementation, use Blueprint’s reviewing-filament-plans skill with the same saved blueprint and application checkout to check whether the implementation satisfies the plan:
The report traces plan requirements to code and test evidence using Conforms, Deviates, Blocked, and Not verified. It distinguishes inspected code and test assertions from executed tests or browser checks, and recommends the smallest correction and verification for each confirmed deviation. Existing focused tests run only when an isolated, safe harness is established. This is a plan-conformance review, not a second planning pass or a general security audit. It does not invent requirements omitted from the blueprint or treat omissions in an update plan as deletions.

Blueprint Plan Example

The following Filament v5 prompt was used with GPT-6 Astra and Amp agent in independent threads, with and without the planning-filament skill:
You can read the plans written for this prompt without Blueprint and with Blueprint, and compare their proposed implementation details. These are planning outputs, not implemented applications or verified test results. Review their assumptions and resolve the outstanding business choices before passing either plan to an implementing agent.
The Blueprint run additionally requested: “Use the planning-filament skill.” The blueprints/invoicing.md output path in the workflow above is a suggested addition, not part of this recorded comparison prompt.

Running a security audit

Blueprint also ships a Filament Security Audit skill that scans a Filament codebase against a catalogue of known security misconfigurations (authorization, file uploads, XSS, query scoping, dependency CVEs, etc.) and writes a per-finding remediation plan. Every entry names the exact file, component namespace, documentation URL, and pasteable fix, so an implementing agent can apply it without guessing. Naming the skill explicitly in your prompt is the most reliable way to invoke it. The skill also responds to the keywords security-audit, security-review, harden, and pen-test when paired with a target like a panel, resource, page, or Livewire component:
The agent will produce a Markdown report grouped by finding category, plus a table of every check performed (Finding / Pass / N/A) and recommended tests for each confirmed issue.

Reporting issues with Blueprint
