 "title": "Catch agent-written PHP debt before the edit lands",
 "page_title": "How to catch agent-written PHP debt before the edit lands with Sloppy",
 "summary": "Install Sloppy hooks so Claude Code, Gemini CLI or Codex checks each PHP edit and fixes new findings.",
 "who": "A PHP or Laravel developer who lets an AI coding agent write most of the code and wants it to clean up its own mistakes.",
 "problem": "Agents repeatedly produce swallowed exceptions, queries inside loops and oversized methods, and code review catches them late.",
 "outcome": "After each PHP edit the agent receives only the findings that edit introduced and fixes them before the developer reviews the change.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `composer require --dev heyosseus/sloppy` in the project root.",
  "Run `vendor/bin/sloppy` to scan the project and confirm the output.",
  "Run `vendor/bin/sloppy agents install` to add the Claude Code hooks, or `vendor/bin/sloppy agents install --host=gemini` or `vendor/bin/sloppy agents install --host=codex` for those agents. (inferred, check the README)",
  "Ask the agent to make a small change to a PHP file and watch it run Sloppy after the edit."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the Heyosseus/sloppy project, install the agent hooks for this repository at <project path> by running the install command for the host agent. Then make a small edit to <target PHP file> that adds a try/catch block, and confirm the agent reports any new findings from that edit. Output the list of findings and whether the agent fixed them.",

 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Sloppy only reports pattern-based findings and does not judge whether the code is AI-generated, so a finding is a prompt to review the code, not proof of a defect.",
