## What it is
A curated, reviewed list of static analysis tools for PHP, covering bug finders, coding standards tools, fixers, metrics, and SaaS offerings. It serves as a directory linking to tools like Exakat, Phan, PHPStan-adjacent linters, and dependency analyzers.

## Use cases
- find a static analysis tool for my PHP project
- compare PHP linters and bug finders
- discover PHP code quality and metrics tools
- find tools to detect unused composer dependencies
- look up PHP coding standards fixers
- find SaaS static analysis services for PHP

## When to choose
- you want a broad, community-reviewed overview of the PHP static analysis ecosystem
- you're evaluating which analyzer, linter, or fixer to adopt for a PHP codebase

## When to avoid
- you need an actual analysis tool rather than a list of links
- you work in a language other than PHP
