Vendra Inquiry API

Workflow

Inspect composer.json, sibling files, and existing tests before changing the package.
Use Laravel Boost application-info and search-docs before code changes.
Apply laravel-best-practices to Laravel PHP and pest-testing whenever tests change.
Keep changes inside this package's boundary and preserve its public contracts.
Add or update focused Pest coverage, then run php artisan test --compact --testsuite=vendra-inquiry-api and composer stan.

Translatable Persistence

Making a persisted model field translatable is an explicit domain choice unless this package already requires it.
Every field listed in a model's $translatable array must definitely use a JSON database column. Keep its model traits/casts, factories, validation, Filament locale UI, API serialization, and tests translation-aware.
A field not listed in $translatable must use the appropriate scalar database type and must not use Spatie Translatable, translatable slug traits, locale switchers, translated callbacks, or translation-shaped array data.

Vendra Transitive API Policy

Treat a Vendra dependency intentionally exposed through the public API of a directly required Vendra platform package as part of the supported public contract of that package.
Do not add a redundant direct Composer requirement solely because source code imports a type from that exposed dependency.
Apply this only to Vendra platform packages listed under require; never extend it to require-dev, suggest, incidental implementation dependencies, or third-party packages. Removing or replacing an exposed dependency is a breaking change; keep self.version alignment across the Vendra package graph.

Use this skill with laravel-best-practices for Laravel PHP and pest-testing when tests change.

Module Boundary

Treat packages/vendra-inquiry-api as the HTTP and MCP surface of misaf/vendra-inquiry.

Use namespace Misaf\VendraInquiryApi.
Keep DTOs in src/ApiResource, processors in src/State, and validation rules in src/Http/Requests.
Keep persistence, status transitions, permissions, and the inbox in misaf/vendra-inquiry.
Keep orders, carts, deliveries, and catalog out entirely.
Keep dependencies explicit and request approval before introducing new packages.

Domain Standards

Keep submission unauthenticated and throttled; a shop that cannot be written to is not a shop.
Answer 204 with output: false: nothing about an enquiry belongs back in the response.
Delegate the write to SubmitInquiryAction so console, HTTP, and tests share one definition of a valid enquiry.
Take source and the sender's locale from the request, never the payload.
Use final classes, explicit types, PHPDoc generics, and declare(strict_types=1).

Testing And Verification

Cover a successful submission, each validation failure, and that the stored message matches what was sent.
Assert the endpoint stays unauthenticated and that no read operation is exposed.
Run php artisan test --compact packages/vendra-inquiry-api/tests.
Run vendor/bin/pint --dirty --format agent after changing PHP files.
