Laravel's Http facade return type not correct

darkdog

When using the Illuminate\Support\Facades\Http facade in Laravel, the IDE reports the return type incorrectly:

$response = Http::acceptJson()->get('https://example.com'); this gives PromiseInterface, when it in fact is a Response.

PHPStan correctly interprets this as Response, so I'm assuming it's an issue with the extension.

You'll notice the get() returns @return (TAsync is false ? \Illuminate\Http\Client\Response : \GuzzleHttp\Promise\PromiseInterface), so I'm thinking it's not checking the TAsync properly?

Thank you. What version of Laravel is it?

Edit: I can repro the issue on Laravel 12

As a quick workaround, the next update will treat it as both:

Fixed in v1.66

We can be more specific, but the editor needs to be much more performant than PHPStan here, and this feature must be more thoroughly tested before the release.

We'll improve this case in the future.
