Results show GPT-5.3 Codex and GPT-5.4 tied at 16/17 evaluations passed with Boost enabled, while Kimi k2.5 offered the best speed-accuracy balance at 108s average and 94.6% accuracy. Laravel Boost improved every model tested, with the biggest gains on complex tasks like Livewire, Folio routing, and Inertia shared data. Key findings include LLM non-determinism, configuration errors as a common failure mode, and a small but acceptable token cost overhead from Boost ($0.05–$0.20 per evaluation). ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
