Does this skill support modern PHP 8 features?

Yes, the audit logic is designed to work with modern PHP syntax, including readonly classes, constructor promotion, and strict return types.

What does the Abstract Factory Auditor check for?

It audits your code for family consistency, product hierarchy completeness, proper use of interface return types, and prevents the mixing of products from different families.

How does this help with Hexagonal Architecture?

It ensures that your application core remains decoupled from infrastructure by enforcing that all related external dependencies are created through abstract factory interfaces.

Why is returning concrete types in a factory considered an issue?

Returning concrete types creates tight coupling. Using interfaces allows you to swap out entire object families (e.g., switching from MySQL to PostgreSQL) without changing the client code.

Developer Tools

Audits PHP codebases to ensure Abstract Factory patterns are implemented with family consistency and proper interface abstractions.

This skill provides an automated auditing framework for the Abstract Factory design pattern within PHP projects. It identifies common anti-patterns such as direct instantiation of related object families, incomplete product sets within a factory, and cross-family mixing. By enforcing interface-based return types and ensuring every factory method adheres to its specific family, this tool helps developers maintain clean, swappable, and scalable architectural structures in alignment with SOLID principles and Hexagonal Architecture.

Key Features

01Locates concrete factories that lack an abstract interface or base class

02Detects direct instantiation of related object families instead of using factories

03Validates that factory methods return interfaces rather than concrete classes

04Identifies missing product methods in concrete factory implementations

05Flags cross-family mixing where incompatible products are incorrectly combined

Use Cases

01Performing architectural compliance reviews for enterprise-grade DDD and Hexagonal systems

02Refactoring legacy PHP codebases to move from direct instantiation to scalable factory patterns

03Enforcing consistent design pattern standards across large engineering teams
