Session 2.6's per-test migrate:fresh in 4 backfill test classes replays ~120 migrations. Laravel's schema:dump produces a single SQL file that migrate:fresh loads atomically when present — significantly faster on environments where the host has the \`mysql\` CLI available for Laravel's load step. Changes: - New Makefile target \`schema-dump\` runs mysqldump INSIDE the bm_mysql Docker container (no host mysqldump dependency to GENERATE the dump). Outputs api/database/schema/mysql-schema.sql. - api/database/schema/.gitignore added: mysql-schema.sql is NOT committed by default. Laravel's auto-load on migrate:fresh shells out to the host's \`mysql\` CLI; on hosts without it, the presence of the dump file actively breaks migrate (exit 127). Treat the dump as opt-in per dev environment. - CLAUDE.md "Schema dumps (opt-in fast path)" subsection added with the workflow: brew install mysql-client → migrate to head → make schema-dump → optionally commit. phpstan-baseline.neon: removed a stale "unused use \$actor" entry in FormSubmissionService whose underlying closure pint cleaned up in commit060d6f3(Task 1). Wall-time on this dev machine (no host mysql CLI): NO speedup, backfill tests still ~6s per setUp. The dump file is ready for environments that have mysql CLI. Documented as a deviation. JSON canonicalization (commit060d6f3) is the load-bearing correctness fix from this branch; the schema-dump perf path is a nice-to-have that activates per-environment.

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.
