The Laravel Claude Code Setup repo is a one-command setup for AI-powered Laravel development with Claude Code and MCP servers. Automatically configure all MCP servers for the ultimate AI-powered Laravel development experience with Figma integration.

The Figma integration features seem like they could be very powerful, helping you automatically create views, extract a design system, build components, and more:

# Example Figma commands
 
# Analyze a complete design
> Please analyze this Figma design and create the corresponding Laravel views
 
# Extract design system
> Extract all colors, typography, and spacing from this Figma file for our Tailwind config
 
# Create specific components
> Convert this Figma card component to a Livewire component with proper validation
 
# Generate admin interface
> Create a Filament resource based on this Figma admin panel design

Main Features

  • Global MCP Servers (shared across all projects)
  • GitHub integration - Access all your repositories, manage PRs (with automatic token configuration)
  • Memory system - Remember decisions across all projects
  • Context7 - Latest Laravel/PHP documentation access
  • Web fetch - Access external APIs and resources
  • Figma integration - Design-to-code workflows with automatic design token extraction
  • Automatic design token extraction - Colors, typography, and spacing for Tailwind CSS
  • Laravel DebugBar - Real-time debugging (if installed)
  • And more..

To get started, you can do a direct installation using the package's setup.sh script. You can download it, check the contents, and run it via:

# Download the script
