The universal AI agent engine for PHP.

Tools, memory, security, and a ReAct loop, already built. Zero framework dependencies in core. Any LLM provider.

Documentation · Adapters · Why phpClaw · Install · MCP · Security

First agent in seconds

composer require phpclaw/phpclaw export ANTHROPICAPIKEY= " sk-ant-... "

$ agent = PhpClaw \Claw:: builder ()-> build (); echo $ agent -> send ( ' What can you help me with? ' )-> text ;

One env var, one builder, one send() . The builder checks ANTHROPICAPIKEY , then OPENAIAPIKEY , GROQAPIKEY , GEMINIAPIKEY , MISTRALAPIKEY , DEEPSEEKAPIKEY , OLLAMA_HOST , in that order, and uses whichever it finds first. No YAML, no agent framework to learn, no vendor lock-in.

Give your agent tools

An agent without tools can only talk. Register the ones your application needs and it starts doing real work:

use PhpClaw \ Claw ; use PhpClaw \ Tools \ ShellTool ; use PhpClaw \ Tools \ HttpTool ; use PhpClaw \ Tools \ FileReadTool ; use PhpClaw \ Tools \ DatabaseQueryTool ; use PhpClaw \ Tools \ CodeSearchTool ;

$ agent = Claw:: builder () -> tools ([ new ShellTool (allowlist: [ ' ls ' , ' df ' , ' tail ' ]), new HttpTool (), new FileReadTool (), new DatabaseQueryTool ( $ pdo ), new CodeSearchTool (), ]) -> build ();

Check disk usage and tail the last 20 lines of the error log Is api.example.com responding right now? Run a read-only SELECT to count today's orders Find every place UserService is used in this codebase

The agent decides which tools to call and in what order, running a ReAct loop (reason, act, observe, repeat) until it has an answer or hits the iteration cap. This works identically whether the tools touch your shell, your database, your HTTP APIs, or your codebase.

Why phpClaw

Every "AI in PHP" tutorial ends the same way: an HTTP client bolted onto a provider API, a hand-rolled tool-call loop, and a prayer that the prompt holds up in production. A generic LLM SDK gives you the API client. phpClaw gives you the agent runtime around it: the loop, the guards, the memory, the framework wiring, already assembled.

phpClaw Generic LLM SDK

Tool-calling loop ReAct, built in You write it

Framework-native adapters 8, idiomatic per framework None

Prompt injection defence 8 default guards + opt-in rate limiting None

Memory abstraction Swappable drivers None

Streaming + tool-calls together Hybrid mode Varies

MCP server bundled Expose any app to Claude Desktop None

Chains and multi-agent graphs Pipeline and Graph : loops, human pause and resume, fan-out You build it

Zero framework deps in core ext-curl , ext-json , ext-mbstring , done Depends

Core license MIT, nothing gated Varies

Not trying to be everything. phpClaw isn't a RAG framework: there are no embeddings or vector stores. It's built to give an LLM tools, memory and security controls against your real application, and to chain those agents into pipelines and graphs when one call isn't enough.

What phpClaw provides

Agent runtime. A ReAct loop with a hard iteration cap ( maxiterations , default 20), pluggable tools, pluggable memory, and skills the model loads on demand through the loadskill tool, all running inside a single reasoning cycle.

Pipelines and graphs. Pipeline chains steps (prompt template, agent, structured output, your own callables) with retry and fallback. Graph runs nodes that loop, branch, pause for a human, resume in another process, and fan out to branches that run inline or are drained by workers from cron, a queue or the CLI. See Pipelines and Graphs .

Provider flexibility. 7 providers auto-detected from environment variables: Anthropic, OpenAI, Groq, Gemini, Mistral, DeepSeek, Ollama. A custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint is also supported, opt-in via PHPCLAW_PROVIDER=custom . Switch providers with ->provider() and ->model() , no code changes elsewhere.

Production controls. 8 security guards on by default (prompt injection, PII, code injection, Unicode, homoglyph, role-switch, destructive SQL, message length), plus rate limiting available as an opt-in guard.Tool results are sanitised unconditionally by ToolOutputGuard , which sits outside the guard registry, and LLM output sanitisation is on by default and can be disabled with ->sanitiseOutput(false) .ShellTool is allowlist-only with a hard-coded command blocklist that can't be overridden.HttpTool validates resolved IPs, not just hostnames, closing the DNS-rebinding gap a prefix blocklist alone would miss.

FileReadTool / FileWriteTool are workspace-sandboxed and refuse sensitive paths and extensions.

Developer experience. Token-by-token streaming, prompt caching (cached input tokens billed at Anthropic's discounted cache-read rate, see Anthropic's pricing for the exact figure), and extended thinking (Claude's reasoning chain exposed on $response->thinking ).

Ecosystem. 8 framework and CMS adapters, an MCP server for exposing your tools to Claude Desktop and Claude Code, and an optional cloud transport for a hosted, continuously-updated prompt-scan guard.

Framework & CMS adapters

Each adapter wires phpClaw into its host's own idioms: Eloquent for Laravel, Doctrine for Symfony, WP-CLI for WordPress, Drush for Drupal, and so on. Every adapter ships an admin chat or CLI and the same 3-table memory schema underneath.

Platform Package Install Versions

Laravel phpclaw/phpclaw-laravel Composer 10, 11, 12, 13

Symfony phpclaw/phpclaw-symfony Composer 6.4, 7.x, 8.x

Drupal phpclaw/phpclaw-drupal Composer 10, 11

Magento / Adobe Commerce phpclaw/phpclaw-magento Composer 2.4.x

WordPress + WooCommerce -- ZIP upload 6.2+

Joomla -- ZIP upload 4, 5, 6

OpenCart -- ZIP upload 3.x, 4.x

PrestaShop -- ZIP upload 8.x, 9.x

CMS adapters ship as ZIP downloads from Releases , not Composer, because that's how their host platforms install extensions.

Full per-adapter reference (tools, REST routes, CLI commands, settings, memory drivers) lives on the doc site . Each adapter's own README is a short pointer, not a manual. Building a new one? See the community adapter guides .

MCP Server

phpclaw/phpclaw-mcp exposes your existing ToolRegistry over the Model Context Protocol, so Claude Desktop , Claude Code , Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client can call your tools directly, with the default guards scanning every tool call's arguments (the prompt-only code-injection, PII and length guards apply to chat messages, not tool arguments). No changes to the tools themselves.

composer require phpclaw/phpclaw-mcp

Full quick start, transport, and security details: phpclaw.ai/docs/mcp .

Security

Every message runs through the default guard chain before it reaches the provider.ShellTool runs only commands on its allowlist (default ls , pwd , df , wc , date , uptime , hostname , whoami ), matched exactly and case-sensitively;a fixed, non-overridable blocklist of dangerous commands is checked first regardless of what's allowlisted.HttpTool blocks requests by hostname prefix, then re-validates every resolved IP address, catching CGNAT and DNS-rebinding attempts that hostname checks alone would miss.

FileReadTool and FileWriteTool are sandboxed to a configured workspace root and refuse credentials, keys and security directories ( .git , .ssh , wp-admin , ...) unconditionally, and vendor/ and node_modules/ by default.

Full guard reference, the exact ShellTool blocklist, and the SSRF/sandbox implementation details: phpclaw.ai/docs/security . Found a vulnerability? See SECURITY.md , do not open a public issue.

Architecture

Message → Guards (blocks injection/PII before the LLM sees it) → Hooks (lifecycle events fire, 44 across the loop) → Agent (ReAct loop: provider + tools + memory + skills) → AgentResponse (text, tokens, tool calls, timing)

Providers, tools, memory, guards, and skills are all pluggable through registries; every adapter wires them from its own config or environment. Full architecture diagram and design rules: phpclaw.ai/docs/architecture .

Extensibility

Five static registries ( GuardRegistry , HookRegistry , MemoryRegistry , ProviderRegistry , SkillRegistry ) plus the per-agent ToolRegistry instance. Drop a class in packages/core/src/<Subsystem>/ with the matching attribute ( #[Tool] , #[Provider] , #[Memory] , #[Skill] , #[Hook] , #[Guard] ), run composer dump-autoload , it's live. Or register from code: GuardRegistry::register() , HookRegistry::on() , $toolRegistry->register([...]) .

Full extension recipes with working code for every subsystem: phpclaw.ai/docs .

Testing

for pkg in core cloud mcp ; do (cd packages/ $pkg && composer test) ; done

Unit tests use mocks and stubs for HTTP clients, \Redis , and the filesystem: no external network calls and no API keys are needed to run the suite for core, cloud, or mcp. The full testing rules, including how to test a core change through an adapter, are in the contributing guide .
