StageActiveOnEvent — checks the candidate stage_id is linked to the given event_id via stage_days. Covers performance create/update (perf.event_id ↔ stage) and the timetable move endpoint (target_stage_id ↔ resolved target event). WithinEventBounds — checks a candidate datetime is inside the event's [start_at, end_at] window. Used for performance start/end dates and move-target dates against the relevant sub-event for festivals. OptionExpiresInFuture — conditional rule fired only when booking_status === 'option'. Asserts option_expires_at is set and in the future. Implementation of RFC §10.1 transition gate at the request layer (the service layer enforces the same invariant). ContractRequiresFee — conditional rule fired only when booking_status === 'contracted'. Asserts fee_amount is set and > 0. Same dual-layer enforcement as OptionExpiresInFuture. All four pass silently when the validated field is null or the context is irrelevant — the FormRequest still owns the surrounding required/nullable/exists rules.

About Laravel
Laravel is a web application framework with expressive, elegant syntax. We believe development must be an enjoyable and creative experience to be truly fulfilling. Laravel takes the pain out of development by easing common tasks used in many web projects, such as:
- Simple, fast routing engine.
- Powerful dependency injection container.
- Multiple back-ends for session and cache storage.
- Expressive, intuitive database ORM.
- Database agnostic schema migrations.
- Robust background job processing.
- Real-time event broadcasting.
Laravel is accessible, powerful, and provides tools required for large, robust applications.
