ComposerRequireChecker is a PHP CLI tool that analyzes a composer.json file and the package's source code to detect usage of symbols from undeclared (soft/transitive) dependencies. It helps enforce that all used libraries and PHP extensions are explicitly required, preventing breakage from indirect dependency updates.

Use cases

• detect undeclared composer dependencies in my package
• prevent soft dependencies in a PHP project
• verify composer.json require section covers all used symbols
• check for missing PHP extension requirements
• add dependency checks to CI pipeline
• find transitive dependencies my code relies on

When to choose

• you maintain a PHP library or package and want strict dependency hygiene
• you want to catch reliance on transitive dependencies before they break
• you need a CI-friendly static check of composer dependencies

When to avoid

• your project does not use Composer
• you need general-purpose static analysis beyond dependency checking
• you want runtime dependency validation rather than static analysis
