Symfony AI is a set of PHP components and Symfony bundles that integrate AI capabilities into PHP applications, including a unified interface to LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Azure), an agent framework with tool calling, vector store abstraction for RAG, and MCP server/client support. It ships as decoupled components (Agent, Chat, Platform, Store, Mate) plus Symfony integration bundles.

Use cases

• add LLM chat to a PHP application
• build AI agents with tool calling in Symfony
• implement RAG with vector stores in PHP
• expose an MCP server from a Symfony app
• unify multiple AI providers behind one interface
• connect coding assistants to a PHP codebase via MCP
• build multi-agent orchestration in PHP

When to choose

• you are building a Symfony or PHP application that needs LLM features
• you want provider-agnostic model inference with streaming, structured output, and multi-modal support
• you need agents, tool calling, and RAG with Symfony-native YAML configuration and DI
• you want to build or consume MCP servers/clients in PHP

When to avoid

• your stack is Python, Node.js, or another non-PHP ecosystem
• you need a standalone AI product rather than libraries to embed in an app
• you need production MCP tooling - the Mate component is explicitly development-only
• you need training or fine-tuning of models - this covers inference and integration only
