 "repo_url": "https://github.com/marcreichel/laya-php",
 "repo_slug": "marcreichel-laya-php",
 "title": "Block abusive or spam text in Laravel form submissions",
 "page_title": "How to block abusive or spam text in Laravel form submissions with Laya PHP",
 "summary": "Add a validation rule that asks a yes/no question about each submitted text and rejects the bad ones.",
 "who": "A Laravel developer who accepts reviews, comments or messages from users and wants a moderation check on the server.",
 "problem": "Free-text fields let in insults, spam and threats, and reviewing every submission by hand does not scale.",
 "outcome": "Form submissions that answer yes to the moderation question fail validation with a friendly message, and the others pass.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `composer require marcreichel/laya-php` in your Laravel app.",
  "Start laya-serve with `docker compose up -d --wait` from a clone of this repo and confirm it with `php artisan laya:health`.",
  "Add `Decides::not('Does the text contain insults, hate speech or threats?')` to the rule list for the text field in your `$request->validate()` call.",
  "Set your own `validation.laya` message if the default one does not fit your app.",
  "Test the form with `Laya::fake(['answer' => true])` so the rule fails without a running server. (inferred, check the README)"
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the marcreichel/laya-php repo's Laravel setup, add a Decides::not rule with the question <moderation question> to the <form field> validation in <controller or form request>. Report which test inputs pass and fail, and verify that a request with a fake answer of true is rejected.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "45 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "If laya-serve is unreachable or busy, the rule fails validation unless you add passWhenUnavailable(), so plan for that case.",
 "category": "Work and operations",
 "tags": [
  "Work and operations"
 ],
 "lang": "php",
 "requirements": [
  "PHP 8.4+ and Composer",
  "A PSR-18 HTTP client such as Guzzle or Symfony HttpClient",
  "Docker, to run laya-serve from the repo's compose.yaml",
  "Laravel 13+ for the Laravel steps (service provider, artisan commands, validation rule, cast)"
