Description

Hello,

While attempting to install boost using the boost:install command after selecting all positions, I’m encountering the Pest\Exceptions\InvalidPestCommand error.

The error message is exactly:

┌ What do you want to install? ────────────────────────────────┐
│ Boost MCP Server (with 15+ tools) │
│ Boost AI Guidelines (for Laravel, Inertia, and more) │
└──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

┌ Which code editors do you use to work on Ximly? ─────────────┐
│ Claude Code │
│ Cursor │
│ PhpStorm │
└──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

┌ Which agents need AI guidelines for Ximly? ──────────────────┐
│ Claude Code │
│ Cursor │
│ Junie │
└──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Pest\Exceptions\InvalidPestCommand

Please run [./vendor/bin/pest] instead.

I’m at a loss to understand the cause of this error and what I need to remove to resolve it. Does boost require any specific commands or configurations that might be causing this issue? I’ve installed pest 3.8.3.

Steps To Reproduce

Installing it.

@V3ct0rek I see you closed this – were you able to fix it? If so, what did you need to do? I'm running into the same issue.

Curious too, as I am getting this error myself.

It seems the issue lays in the ai guidelines.
collect(['mcp_server']); # works
collect(['mcp_server', 'ai_guidelines']); #not.

So unchecking all the guidelines seems to work.
