An automated return-type pass aliased the view contract as ViewContract
to avoid clashing with the imported View facade, but left four methods
(curatedOnboarding, language, redirectUrl, followIntent) typed against
the facade instead of the contract. That threw a TypeError on
/auth/sign_up.
Convert the four View::make() calls to the view() helper, drop the
facade import, and use a single Illuminate\Contracts\View\View import
for all return types.
Caching an Eloquent model in a Cache::remember closure could deserialize
into a __PHP_Incomplete_Class on read, throwing 'attempt to access a
property on an incomplete object' and returning a 500. This surfaced on
guest profile pages (ProfileController::buildProfile reading
$user->user->settings) and affected several other latent call sites.
Changes:
- ProfileController: cache a plain settings array instead of the
UserSetting model; fall back to defaults when the settings row is missing
- StoryService::getById: fetch a live model instead of caching it
- InstanceService::getByDomain, CustomEmoji::scan: cache arrays
- Site/MobileController: cache Page data as an array via a shared
ManagesCachedPages trait; update blade views to array access
- Add public-route smoke/regression tests covering the cache-read path
Move all Eloquent models from the app/ root directory to app/Models/
for consistency with modern Laravel conventions. The project already had
54 models in App\Models; this migrates the remaining 52 legacy models.
Changes:
- Move 52 model files from app/ to app/Models/
- Update namespace declarations in each model
- Update all ~1000 import references across the codebase
- Add Relation::morphMap() in AppServiceProvider for backward
compatibility with existing polymorphic database records
- Add missing HasSnowflakePrimary imports for models that relied
on same-namespace resolution
Adds explicit return type declarations to 498 controller methods
across 88 files. Types inferred from return statements:
- JsonResponse for response()->json() returns
- RedirectResponse for redirect()/back() returns
- View (contract) for view() returns
- Response for response() returns
- void for methods with no return value
- array for array returns
- string/int/bool for scalar returns
Also fixes 3 methods with incorrect bare returns:
- AvatarController::deleteAvatar - bare return → json response
- ImportPostController::checkPermissions - bare return → true
- RemoteAuthController::accountToId - bare return → empty array
Replace Auth::user() with $request->user() and Auth::check() with
$request->user() !== null (or ! $request->user()) across all
controllers and middleware that have access to the request object.
This resolves 99 larastan.noAuthFacadeInRequestScope errors and
improves Octane compatibility.
For protected helper methods without $request in scope, uses the
request() helper instead.
Methods that previously lacked a Request parameter but used Auth
facade now accept Request $request via Laravel's auto-injection.

Convert all 273 short facade alias imports (e.g. 'use Cache;') to their
fully-qualified class names (e.g. 'use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Cache;')
across 193 files.
This resolves 643 PHPStan 'class.notFound' errors caused by the static
analyzer being unable to resolve global aliases, and aligns with modern
Laravel conventions. It also unblocks removing the aliases array from
config/app.php in a future change.
All 107 tests pass.
