SQS QUEUE SIZE BUG FIXED, DALL-E TESTS REMOVED, BOOST SHIPS v2.4.12
By RepoJournal · Filed · About Laravel · Composed from the cited sources · methodology
Laravel framework patches a silent operator precedence bug in SQS queue methods that was throwing undefined key warnings in production.
The framework team fixed a nasty precedence bug in `pendingSize()`, `delayedSize()`, and `reservedSize()` methods where the null coalescing operator wasn't wrapping the array access [1]. This means if SQS doesn't return the expected attribute, you'd get a PHP warning instead of a clean fallback to 0. In the same push, docblock separators were added to `Storage::prepend()` and `Storage::append()` to complete the facade documentation [2]. Over in laravel/ai, the test suite got a cleanup: the `openai-dall-e-3` image provider dataset was removed because OpenAI retired DALL·E 2 and 3 back in May, and integration tests were failing with misleading 400 errors [3]. Meanwhile, Laravel Boost shipped v2.4.12 with MCP tooling improvements, config file preference fixes, and enum determinism fixes, though the new rules feature ships with its flag defaulted to off [4].
