Summary

Major refactor to improve the package API ergonomics, simplify the schema builder interface, and add OpenAI Structured Outputs format support.

Key Changes

API Improvements

  • Renamed Builder class to Property for better semantic clarity - the class builds properties, not the entire structure
  • Made description parameter required in Struct::define() to align with LLM provider requirements (Anthropic Claude requires description)
  • Reordered parameters for better ergonomics: Struct::define(name, description, callback)
  • Renamed callback variable from $builder to $property throughout codebase for consistency
  • Added inline property descriptions as 2nd parameter: $property->string('name', 'Description')

Simplifications

  • Removed config file - simplified package setup with sensible defaults
  • Renamed Schemas namespace to Schema for cleaner imports
  • Removed toJson() method - use json_encode($struct) instead (implements JsonSerializable)
  • Added declare(strict_types=1) to all PHP files for better type safety

New Features

  • OpenAI Structured Outputs format support - ->strict() mode wraps schema in {name, strict: true, schema: {...}} format
  • Cached schema generation - toArray() results are cached for performance

Breaking Changes

⚠️ This is a pre-release (0.x) version, so breaking changes are expected as we iterate towards 1.0.0.

  • Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schemas\BuilderBlaspsoft\Forerunner\Schema\Property
  • Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schemas\StructBlaspsoft\Forerunner\Schema\Struct
  • Struct::define($name, $callback)Struct::define($name, $description, $callback)
  • Callback parameter: function (Builder $builder)function (Property $property)
  • Removed: $struct->toJson() → Use json_encode($struct) instead
  • Config file removed (was rarely needed)

Migration Example

Before:

use Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schemas\Struct;
use Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schemas\Builder;

$schema = Struct::define('User', function (Builder $builder) {
    $builder->string('name')->required();
    $builder->string('email')->required();
});

After:

use Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schema\Struct;
use Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schema\Property;

$schema = Struct::define('User', 'A user schema', function (Property $property) {
    $property->string('name', 'The user\'s full name')->required();
    $property->string('email', 'The user\'s email address')->required();
})->toArray();

Testing

  • ✅ All 118 tests passing (400 assertions)
  • ✅ PHPStan Level 9 analysis clean
  • ✅ No breaking changes to test suite

Documentation

  • Updated README with all new API patterns
  • Fixed all examples to use new syntax
  • Added OpenAI Structured Outputs documentation
  • Removed outdated toJson() references

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Breaking Changes

    • Schema API updated: definitions now require a description, use a Property-based field API, and return array-shaped schemas (explicit toArray()/JSON output). Default configuration file removed; package no longer publishes or loads a default config. Public namespaces and imports reorganized to reflect the new API surface.
  • Documentation

    • Examples and guides refreshed to demonstrate Property-based definitions, strict-mode behavior, and standardized toArray()/JSON output.
  • Tests/Chores

    • Tests updated and strict typing enabled project-wide.

Move description parameter to second position for more intuitive usage:
- Before: Struct::define($name, $callback, $description)
- After: Struct::define($name, $description, $callback)

This ordering aligns with common API patterns where optional metadata
comes before the main callback function. Tests pass null when description
is not needed.

Changes description parameter from optional (?string) to required (string)
for better LLM integration:

- OpenAI Structured Outputs: Benefits from clear schema descriptions
- Anthropic Claude Tool Use: Requires description as critical field
- Forces developers to document schemas for better LLM understanding

Updated signature: Struct::define(string $name, string $description, callable $callback)

All tests updated with meaningful descriptions. The stub template now
includes a placeholder description for generated structs.

Major refactoring to improve code readability and match the fluent API pattern:

Changes:
- Renamed Builder.php → Property.php
- Updated class name from Builder to Property
- Changed all callback parameters from $builder to $property
- Updated all imports across codebase
- Updated README documentation with new syntax

New API pattern:
```php
Struct::define('User', 'User schema', function (Property $property) {
    $property->string('name', 'Full name')->required();
    $property->email('email', 'Email address')->required();
});
```

This better reflects that we're defining properties of a schema, not
building the entire structure. The Property class provides methods to
define individual schema properties with their constraints.

All tests passing (118/118), PHPStan Level 9 clean.

3-3: LGTM! Strict types declaration added.

The addition of declare(strict_types=1); aligns with the PR objective to add strict typing across all PHP files and follows PHP best practices.


10-12: Excellent! Past review feedback addressed.

The PHPDoc has been correctly updated:

  • The @method signature now includes the required description parameter, matching the new Struct::define(string $name, string $description, callable $callback) signature.
  • The @see tag namespace has been corrected from \Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schemas\Struct to \Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schema\Struct.

Both issues flagged in the previous review have been resolved. Based on learnings

src/Schema/Property.php (7)

3-7: LGTM! Core refactor elements correctly applied.

The file header correctly implements the major refactor:

  • Strict types declaration added
  • Namespace updated from Schemas to Schema
  • Class renamed from Builder to Property

All changes align with the PR objectives.


22-23: LGTM! Strict mode state tracking added.

The new isStrict property correctly tracks strict mode state and is properly typed and initialized.


96-107: LGTM! Nested builder correctly uses Property.

The object() method correctly instantiates nested builders using new Property($name), consistent with the class rename.


228-239: LGTM! Strict mode correctly marks existing properties.

The strict() method correctly:

  • Sets the isStrict flag
  • Disallows additional properties
  • Marks all existing properties as required

This handles properties defined before strict() is called.


241-247: LGTM! Public accessor for strict mode state.

The isStrict() accessor correctly exposes the strict mode state, which is used by the Struct class to determine whether to wrap the schema in OpenAI's format.


262-274: Excellent! Strict mode behavior correctly fixed.

The updated addProperty() method now marks properties as required when $this->isStrict is true. This ensures properties added after strict() is called are also marked as required, complementing the behavior in strict() which handles pre-existing properties.

This correctly addresses the fix mentioned in the PR objectives. Based on learnings


281-317: Excellent! toArray() correctly made non-mutating.

The refactored toArray() method now:

  • Builds a local $required array on each invocation
  • Computes the required list from current PropertyBuilder states via isRequired()
  • Avoids mutating $this->required (which has been removed)
  • Prevents stale state across multiple invocations

This correctly addresses the fix mentioned in the PR objectives. Based on learnings

README.md (5)

47-62: LGTM! Generated template correctly uses new API.

The make:struct command template correctly:

  • Imports from Schema namespace (not Schemas)
  • Uses Property parameter type (not Builder)
  • Calls strict() at the end after field definitions
  • Returns array via toArray()

69-90: LGTM! Basic usage examples correctly updated.

The examples correctly demonstrate the new API:

  • Property parameter type in callbacks
  • Three-parameter define() signature with required description
  • toArray() for array output
  • Both Struct::define() and Schema facade patterns shown

310-336: Excellent! Strict mode ordering footgun addressed.

The documentation now correctly:

  • Includes a prominent warning to call strict() after defining fields (line 310)
  • Shows the example with strict() at the end (line 321)
  • Adds an inline comment explaining the correct placement (line 321)
  • Reinforces the requirement in the note (line 335)

This addresses the past review feedback about the ordering issue. Based on learnings


358-399: Excellent! Advanced example correctly demonstrates strict() ordering.

The complete advanced example now:

  • Defines all fields before calling strict() (lines 365-395)
  • Includes a clear comment explaining the placement (line 397)
  • Calls strict() at the end to ensure all fields are marked as required (line 398)

This addresses the past review feedback that flagged the ordering issue in this example. Based on learnings


466-586: LGTM! Complex examples comprehensively updated.

All complex examples correctly demonstrate:

  • Property-based field definitions
  • Three-parameter define() signature with descriptions
  • Nested object and array patterns using Property callbacks
  • Array output via toArray()

The examples provide comprehensive coverage of the new API.

231-242: Strict mode correctness + required-state recomputation.

  • Fields added after calling strict() are not auto-required.
  • toArray() mutates/persists $this->required via markRequired(), causing stale required sets across calls and making optional() ineffective after a prior toArray().

Make strict truly “all fields required” and keep required derivation pure per-call.

310-332: Fix strict() output shape — Struct::toArray returns an OpenAI wrapper

With strict() enabled, Struct::toArray() returns a wrapper { name, strict: true, schema: {...} }, not a flat schema. The example currently shows a flat object and can mislead users.

Apply this correction:

-```php
-// Perfect for OpenAI Structured Outputs
-$schema = Struct::define('User', 'A user schema', function (Property $property) {
-    $property->string('fullname');
-    $property->email('email');
-    $property->int('age')->min(0)->max(120);
-    $property->string('location');
-
-    $property->strict(); // Makes all fields required + disallows extra properties
-})->toArray();
-```
-
-This generates:
-```json
-{
-    "type": "object",
-    "properties": {...},
-    "required": ["fullname", "email", "age", "location"],
-    "additionalProperties": false
-}
-```
+```php
+// Perfect for OpenAI Structured Outputs
+$struct = Struct::define('User', 'A user schema', function (Property $property) {
+    $property->string('fullname');
+    $property->email('email');
+    $property->int('age')->min(0)->max(120);
+    $property->string('location');
+
+    $property->strict(); // Disallows extras + (see note below on "required")
+});
+
+$wrapped = $struct->toArray();     // { name, strict: true, schema: {...} }
+$schema  = $wrapped['schema'];     // Flat JSON Schema for OpenAI's `schema` field
+```
+
+This returns the wrapper:
+```json
+{
+  "name": "User",
+  "strict": true,
+  "schema": {
+    "type": "object",
+    "properties": { "...": "..." },
+    "required": ["fullname", "email", "age", "location"],

+  }

🧹 Nitpick comments (10)
stubs/struct.stub (1)

17-22: Showcase inline descriptions in the generated stub.

The PR advertises inline field descriptions; the stub should demonstrate it.

tests/Feature/SchemaFacadeTest.php (1)

9-12: Add a facade strict-mode test to lock wrapper semantics

Great migration to Property API. To ensure Schema facade mirrors Struct behavior under strict mode (name/strict/schema wrapper), add a small test exercising Schema::define(...)->strict()->toArray(). This guards the container binding and facade accessor.

Apply this addition:

+    it('wraps in OpenAI format via the facade when strict', function () {
+        $schema = Schema::define('StrictUser', 'A strict user schema', function (Property $property) {
+            $property->string('name');
+            $property->strict();
+        })->toArray();
+
+        expect($schema)->toHaveKey('name', 'StrictUser')
+            ->and($schema)->toHaveKey('strict', true)
+            ->and($schema)->toHaveKey('schema')
+            ->and($schema['schema']['type'])->toBe('object');
+    });

80-90: Clarify strict() + Struct vs Property output

Where examples use Struct::define(...)->toArray() with strict(), note the wrapper shape and show how to access the flat schema via $struct->toArray()['schema'] or by calling Property->toArray() directly.

Proposed note to append after these samples:

+> Tip: With strict() enabled, Struct::toArray() returns { name, strict, schema }. If you need the flat JSON Schema (e.g., to pass into an API field named "schema"), use `$struct->toArray()['schema']`. If you're building a schema without Struct, `$property->toArray()` returns the flat schema.

256-263: Tighten format list wording

JSON Schema standard uses "uri" (not "url") as the format keyword. Since $property->url(...) maps to format "uri", clarify this to avoid confusion.

Apply this tweak:

-Supported formats: `email`, `uri`, `url`, `uuid`, `date`, `date-time`, `time`, `ipv4`, `ipv6`, `hostname`, and more.
+Supported formats: `email`, `uri` (aliased via `$property->url()`), `uuid`, `date`, `date-time`, `time`, `ipv4`, `ipv6`, `hostname`, and more.

41-51: Document/guard strict() ordering semantics

Nice coverage. Note that strict() marks fields required at call-time. You already call ->required() on fields in the strict test; consider either:

  • Add a brief comment in the test explaining the ordering, or
  • Change implementation to enforce “all properties required” at serialization time when isStrict() is true to remove ordering sensitivity.

If you prefer the latter, one minimal change in Property::toArray():

-        foreach ($this->properties as $name => $builder) {
-            $properties[$name] = $builder->toArray();
-            if ($builder->isRequired()) {
-                $this->markRequired($name);
-            }
-        }
+        foreach ($this->properties as $name => $builder) {
+            $properties[$name] = $builder->toArray();
+            if ($this->isStrict || $builder->isRequired()) {
+                $this->markRequired($name);
+            }
+        }

This preserves existing behavior and removes the ordering footgun. Based on relevant code snippets.

371-388: Assertion style nit (Pest compatibility)

toContain('id', 'email', 'created_at') may depend on Pest version. To avoid version sensitivity, prefer separate assertions or pass an array if supported.

Example:

-    ->and($nestedSchema['required'])->toContain('id', 'email', 'created_at');
+    ->and($nestedSchema['required'])->toContain('id')
+    ->and($nestedSchema['required'])->toContain('email')
+    ->and($nestedSchema['required'])->toContain('created_at');
tests/Feature/IntendedUsageTest.php (1)

8-21: LGTM; consider asserting nested additionalProperties default

Good end-to-end example. Since additionalProperties defaults to false (including nested objects), you could assert it on address to lock in the default.

Add:

     ->and($schema['properties']['address']['properties'])->toHaveKey('zip')
+    ->and($schema['properties']['address'])->toHaveKey('additionalProperties', false)
     ->and($schema['properties']['address']['properties']['street']['description'])->toBe('Street name')

* `src/Schema/Property.php`
* `src/Schema/PropertyBuilder.php`
* `src/Schema/Struct.php`
- Fix strict() mode to mark fields added after strict() as required

✅ CodeRabbit Review Feedback Addressed

I've fixed all the issues identified by CodeRabbit in commit 5a27b42:

1. Strict mode now handles fields added after strict()

File: src/Schema/Property.php:265-277

Modified addProperty() to automatically mark new properties as required when in strict mode:

protected function addProperty(string $name, string $type, ?string $description): PropertyBuilder
{
    $builder = new PropertyBuilder($name, $type, $description);

    // In strict mode, all fields must be required, including those added after strict()
    if ($this->isStrict) {
        $builder->required();
    }

    $this->properties[$name] = $builder;

    return $builder;
}

2. Made toArray() non-mutating ✅

File: src/Schema/Property.php:294-330

Changed the method to compute the required array from property states on each call instead of mutating $this->required:

// Build required array from property states without mutating $this->required
$required = [];
foreach ($this->properties as $name => $builder) {
    $schema['properties'][$name] = $builder->toArray();

    if ($builder->isRequired()) {
        $required[] = $name;
    }
}

This prevents stale state and side effects across multiple toArray() calls.

3. Updated facade docblock namespace ✅

File: src/Facades/Schema.php:12

Fixed the @see tag to reference the correct namespace:

- * @see \Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schemas\Struct
+ * @see \Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schema\Struct

Tests: All 118 tests passing ✅

101-101: LGTM! Nested builder uses Property.

Correctly updated to instantiate Property instead of Builder for nested objects.


268-272: LGTM! Auto-require in strict mode.

Automatically marking new properties as required in strict mode ensures consistency, even for properties added after strict() is called. This aligns with OpenAI Structured Outputs requirements.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Update method signature to include required description parameter.

According to the PR objectives, Struct::define now requires a description parameter: define(string $name, string $description, callable $callback). The current PHPDoc signature is missing this parameter.

Apply this diff to correct the signature:

- * @method static array<string, mixed> define(string $name, callable $callback)
+ * @method static array<string, mixed> define(string $name, string $description, callable $callback)
🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In src/Facades/Schema.php around line 10, the PHPDoc @method signature for
define is missing the required description parameter; update the docblock to
reflect Struct::define(string $name, string $description, callable $callback) so
the @method reads: @method static array<string, mixed> define(string $name,
string $description, callable $callback), ensuring the parameter order and types
match the implementation and regenerate any doc caches if needed.

Comment thread src/Schema/Property.php
- Remove dead code: $this->required property and markRequired() method
- Update facade PHPDoc to include required description parameter
- Fix README examples to call strict() after defining all fields
- Update test to verify toArray() idempotency instead of markRequired()
- Add documentation note about calling strict() at the end

These changes ensure the API is cleaner, documentation is accurate,
and strict() usage follows best practices by being called after all
fields are defined.

✅ Additional CodeRabbit Feedback Addressed

Fixed all new issues identified in commit 35ccefe:

1. 🔴 Removed dead code ✅

Files: src/Schema/Property.php

Removed the now-unused $this->required property (line 15) and markRequired() method (lines 282-287) since we now derive required fields directly from PropertyBuilder::isRequired() states during toArray().

2. 🟡 Updated facade PHPDoc signature ✅

File: src/Facades/Schema.php:10

Fixed the @method docblock to include the required description parameter:

- * @method static array<string, mixed> define(string $name, callable $callback)
+ * @method static \Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schema\Struct define(string $name, string $description, callable $callback)

3. 🟠 Fixed README strict() ordering ✅

Files: README.md (lines 360-395, 304-335)

Moved strict() calls to the end of field definitions with clear documentation:

  • Updated "Complete Advanced Example" to call strict() after all fields are defined
  • Updated "Strict Mode for LLM APIs" section with important note about calling strict() at the end
  • Added inline comment: // Call strict() after all fields to mark them all as required

Why this matters: Our implementation now auto-requires fields added after strict() is called (from previous fix), but calling it at the end is still the best practice and most intuitive pattern for users.

4. Updated test expectations ✅

File: tests/Unit/BuilderTest.php:211-223

Changed the "avoids duplicate required fields" test to verify toArray() idempotency instead of testing the removed markRequired() method.


Tests: All 118 tests passing with 402 assertions ✅
