## What it is
A Laravel/Lumen package that keeps a history of Eloquent model changes by adding a trait to models, storing audit records via configurable drivers. It exposes audited data for presentation, transformation, and tagging, helping surface discrepancies or suspect activity in data changes.

## Use cases
- track changes to eloquent models in laravel
- keep an audit log of who changed what in a laravel app
- log model update history with a trait
- record database record revisions in laravel
- audit trail for laravel models
- detect suspicious or anomalous data changes
- view history of model attribute changes
- compliance logging for php web app database changes

## When to choose
- You are building a Laravel or Lumen application and want per-model audit logs with minimal setup (just add a trait)
- You need to omit or transform sensitive attributes before they are audited
- You want audit records you can query, tag, filter, and prune automatically via a threshold

## When to avoid
- Your project does not use Laravel/Lumen or the Eloquent ORM
- You need database-level, request-level, or infrastructure audit logging beyond Eloquent model changes
- You need general application monitoring or performance logging rather than model change tracking

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: logging, database
- domain: web-development, backend, security, developer-tools
- platform: php
- tags: laravel, lumen, eloquent, audit-trail, model-history, change-tracking, revision-history, observers, compliance, composer-package, web-server
