Byproduct of the Laravel 13 upgrade: composer's post-update-cmd runs `artisan boost:update`, and Boost went 2.1.3 to 2.4.x with the update. Refreshes CLAUDE.md and boost.json for the Laravel 13 / Livewire 4 stack, updates the livewire, pest and tailwindcss skills, replaces the developing-with-fortify skill with fortify-development, and adds new laravel-best-practices and octane-development skills. Generated output, not hand-edited. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Task Scheduling Best Practices
|
|
|
|
## Use `withoutOverlapping()` on Variable-Duration Tasks
|
|
|
|
Without it, a long-running task spawns a second instance on the next tick, causing double-processing or resource exhaustion.
|
|
|
|
## Use `onOneServer()` on Multi-Server Deployments
|
|
|
|
Without it, every server runs the same task simultaneously. Requires a shared cache driver (Redis, database, Memcached).
|
|
|
|
## Use `runInBackground()` for Concurrent Long Tasks
|
|
|
|
By default, tasks at the same tick run sequentially. A slow first task delays all subsequent ones. `runInBackground()` runs them as separate processes.
|
|
|
|
## Use `environments()` to Restrict Tasks
|
|
|
|
Prevent accidental execution of production-only tasks (billing, reporting) on staging.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
Schedule::command('billing:charge')->monthly()->environments(['production']);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Use `takeUntilTimeout()` for Time-Bounded Processing
|
|
|
|
A task running every 15 minutes that processes an unbounded cursor can overlap with the next run. Bound execution time.
|
|
|
|
## Use Schedule Groups for Shared Configuration
|
|
|
|
Avoid repeating `->onOneServer()->timezone('America/New_York')` across many tasks.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
Schedule::daily()
|
|
->onOneServer()
|
|
->timezone('America/New_York')
|
|
->group(function () {
|
|
Schedule::command('emails:send --force');
|
|
Schedule::command('emails:prune');
|
|
});
|
|
```
