Laravel framework v13.24.0 arrived with modelKeys() support, a new array_keys validation rule, and a critical fix for Arr::forget() that was removing the wrong nested elements.
The framework release [1] includes six commits addressing core array handling and queue behavior. The most significant fix lands in Arr::forget() [2], which was incorrectly removing nested array elements when processing dot-notation keys because it failed to reset its working reference back to the top-level array between iterations. This bug could silently corrupt data structures in production. Queue handling also improved: bulk jobs dispatched through DatabaseQueue now properly respect after-commit configuration [3], partitioning jobs so that after-commit jobs wait for transaction completion while normal jobs use the optimized bulk insert path. Two recent commits were reverted , suggesting Taylor Otwell caught unintended side effects early. On the tooling front, Octane now automatically overrides the artisan dev server command [4] to use watch mode locally when Illuminate\Foundation\DevCommands is available, eliminating manual configuration. Documentation continues steady updates: the Boost Journal and infer-conventions skill are now documented [5], and a critical parse error in the Attachments example was fixed [6] by adding missing commas between array items.
