Mago is a PHP toolchain. I guess it is something similar to ruff/ty/pyrefly in Python, oxc in JavaScript, or Lux in Lua because it emphasis its speed and it is written in Rust. The author is also a maintainer of psl[1] and listed in JetBrains' 2025-2026 sponsorship program.[2]

@lens0021 congrats. What does it do? No explanation in post, no explanation in link? And you want me to look at it?
@lens0021 sorry, that was just a bit snarky. But hey, don’t assume all us plebs know what you’re doing: if you posted “blahlib makes your code better and we’ve released x.y.z” I’d know I could ignore it (if I didn’t want my code to if be better 😜). And link to the project homepage, not the release note. Or maybe both.
That’s easy, right? Hope I’m being constructive.

Did you open the link? The release notes have a project description, not just a change log.
Your point is fair. I intended to mention that Mago is a PHP toolchain and thought that would suffice, but I should have considered the audience more carefully. I will submit addional comment.
Wait, isn't the link self-descritive?
After over 1,000 commits, 13 release candidates, 34 betas, and 12 alphas, we are thrilled to announce Mago 1.0.0 - the first stable release of the Mago PHP toolchain.
Mago is a comprehensive PHP toolchain written in Rust that combines a linter, formatter, and static analyzer into a single, blazingly fast binary. Whether you're working on a small project or a massive codebase with millions of lines, Mago delivers consistent, reliable feedback in seconds.
