# Requirements

- PHP 8.4+
- Laravel 12 or 13
- MySQL 8.0+ or PostgreSQL — MySQL 5.7 is not supported, because the report reads the p95 with a window function; neither is SQL Server, because its unique indexes treat NULLs as equal
- roundly-consulting/enums-for-laravel and package-toolkit-for-laravel — Composer installs them automatically
- Laravel’s scheduler and a queue worker for scheduled checks
- Optional: ext-pcntl for hard-abort timeouts on the CLI
- A shared cache store (Redis, database or Memcached) when several servers run the scheduler or send notifications, so onOneServer() and the throttle hold across them

No third-party vendors: the cron parser, the timeouts and the percentile maths are native. MIT-licensed.
