LARAVEL PLUGS GITHUB CREDENTIALS LEAK ACROSS INSTALLER AND CORE

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Laravel

Laravel is systematically removing exposed Composer OAuth tokens from GitHub Actions workflows in both the installer and framework, a security hygiene fix rolling through 13.x.

The framework team [1] [2] and installer [3] are stripping `github-oauth` credentials from Linux and Windows Actions to prevent accidental token exposure in logs and artifacts—a pattern that should have been locked down long ago but is being addressed now across all entry points. The framework also shipped support for `after_commit` hooks on Cloud queue metrics [4], letting you defer metric writes until transactions actually land, which matters if you're tracking queue performance against eventual consistency. Over in laravel/boost, the MCP JSON config handler now preserves empty objects instead of converting them to arrays [5] , fixing a schema validation failure that was breaking OpenCode startup when Boost installed its server entry. The same crew also cleaned up redundant `.env` read guidance [6] from the MCP docs, removing noise after earlier core-guideline refactoring. Infrastructure work across `.github` workflows is adding Ubuntu runners and reusable composition patterns [7] , likely to support the credential cleanup rollout and future CI standardization.
