Sheath Statamic Laravel Package

Product Decisions This Supports

• Template quality gates: Use Sheath’s Statamic/Antlers diagnostics in CI or pre-deploy checks to catch template syntax issues before they reach production.
• Build vs. buy: Supports buying/adopting a focused static-analysis adapter instead of building custom Antlers linting logic in-house.
• Roadmap prioritization: The v0.1.1 fix reduces false positives in Antlers region syntax diagnostics, making the tool more trustworthy for teams evaluating template-analysis adoption.
• Developer experience: Helps justify investment in earlier feedback for Statamic template authors, reducing time spent debugging runtime template failures.
• Risk management: Early v0.x status means adoption should be scoped as an experiment or non-blocking CI check until diagnostic accuracy and API stability are proven.

When to Consider This Package

• Consider it when the product uses Statamic with Antlers templates and the team wants automated syntax diagnostics in local development or CI.
• Consider it when template-related regressions are a recurring source of defects and a lightweight static-analysis layer would improve confidence.
• Consider it for pilot adoption if the team can tolerate v0.x maturity and wants to validate diagnostic accuracy against its own template corpus.
• Look elsewhere if the product does not use Statamic/Antlers, needs a mature 1.x+ API contract, requires broad PHP static analysis rather than template diagnostics, or cannot absorb false-positive tuning work.
• The v0.1.1 fix specifically addresses false Antlers region syntax diagnostics, so teams previously blocked by noisy results should re-evaluate, but should still pilot before making it a hard release gate.

How to Pitch It (Stakeholders)

Executive summary: This package adds static diagnostics for Statamic Antlers templates, helping teams catch template syntax problems earlier and reduce runtime surprises. The latest v0.1.1 release is a small but important quality fix: it removes false positives in Antlers region syntax diagnostics, improving signal quality for CI and developer feedback. Because it is still v0.x, recommend a scoped pilot rather than a company-wide mandate. The pitch is strongest for Statamic-heavy products where template reliability and developer feedback speed matter, and weakest where the stack is not Statamic or where only mature, production-hardened tooling is acceptable.
