Laravel Queues Audit

Analyze a Laravel project's queue and job implementation against proven patterns. Scan relevant PHP source files plus queue-related config, tests, env examples, and versioned deployment files (excluding vendor/, node_modules/, storage/) and produce a structured report of findings with actionable suggestions.

This is NOT a performance benchmark or full infrastructure audit. Focus on job code quality, queue patterns, failure handling, queueable classes, and correct use of Laravel's queue features. Only make deployment or operations findings when they are verifiable from files present in the repository.

What to Check

1. Long-Running Operations Not Using Queues

Scan controllers, Livewire components, and route closures for synchronous operations that would benefit from being queued.

Why it matters: Long-running operations block the HTTP response, causing timeouts, poor UX, and wasted server resources. Queues process these operations in the background while the user gets an immediate response.
