LARAVEL CLOUD-CLI SHIPS LARAVEL 13 SUPPORT AND SLIMS PHAR BUILD

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Laravel

Cloud-CLI bumps to Laravel 13, raising the PHP floor to 8.3 and adopting Laravel's new agent-detector package alongside a leaner build script that cuts PHAR size.

Laravel Cloud-CLI is now Laravel 13 ready [1]. The upgrade moves the minimum PHP version from 8.2 to 8.3 and swaps the community-maintained shipfastlabs/agent-detector for the official Laravel/Agent-Detector ^2.0, which moved into the Laravel organization. This required namespace updates across the codebase to reflect the new `Laravel\AgentDetector` location. In parallel, a new build script inspired by cpx now constructs the PHAR without dev dependencies, slashing the distribution size while keeping the Composer floor at just the PHP version requirement [2]. The three commits and matching PRs land cleanly, with a minor UI fix for header-less tables also merged [3]. This is the upgrade cycle every cloud-cli user has been waiting for.
