Case mismatch in method call or class usage: Reports the usages of functions, methods, classes, and namespaces that do not match the case used in their declarations.
Class can be 'readonly': Reports the classes which contain only readonly properties and can have the readonly modifier added to them.

Class path doesn't match project structure: Reports the classes with the filepath not following the PSR-0/PSR-4 project structure.
Closure can be converted to arrow function: Reports the anonymous functions and property hooks that can be transformed to short arrow functions.
Comment can be replaced with named argument: Reports the inline comments before arguments in function calls that only contain the name of the parameter and thus serve as hints.
Control statement body without braces: Reports the control structures (such as loops or conditionals) whose bodies are not enclosed in braces.
Dangerous array initialization: Reports dangerous array initializations (such as $arr[] = value).
Define constant name can be replaced with 'const' syntax: Reports the define() calls that can be replaced with const syntax.
Expression without clarifying parentheses: Reports potentially ambiguous expressions and proposes enclosing them in clarifying parentheses.

Loop can be converted to 'array_fill()' call: Reports the for loops that can be replaced with array_fill() calls.
Loop can be converted to 'array_filter()' call: Reports the foreach loops that can be replaced with array_filter() calls.
Loop can be converted to 'array_map()' call: Reports the foreach loops that can be replaced with array_map() calls.
Loop can be converted to an 'array_all()' call: Reports the foreach loops that can be replaced with array_all() calls in PHP 8.4 and later.
Loop can be converted to an 'array_any()' call: Reports the foreach loops that can be replaced with array_any() calls in PHP 8.4 and later.
Loop can be converted to an 'array_find()' call: Reports the foreach loops that can be replaced with array_find() calls in PHP 8.4 and later.
Loop can be converted to an 'array_find_key()' call: Reports the foreach loops that can be replaced with array_find_key() calls in PHP 8.4 and later.
Method can be made 'static': Reports the methods that don't use any instance references and thus may be converted to static methods.
Multiple 'isset' calls can be replaced with one: Reports multiple isset() checks that can be replaced with a single one.
Multiple classes declarations in one file: Reports multiple class declarations in a single file, which violates the PSR-0/PSR-4 standards.
Named arguments order does not match parameters order: Reports named argument with order that does not match parameter order.
Nullsafe operator '?->' can be used: Reports the null-checking conditional expressions that can be safely replaced with the ?-> nullsafe operator.
Old style constructor: Reports old-style constructor declarations (ClassName()) and suggests replacing them with new-style constructors (__construct()).
Open 'echo' tag usage: Reports the <?php echo usages that can be replaced with a short tag <?=.
Parentheses around the 'new' call can be omitted: Reports parentheses around the new expression in statements with class member access on instantiation, e.g.
Redundant closing tag: Reports PHP closing tag ?> usages, which are redundant in files containing only PHP code.
Short open 'echo' tag usage: Reports short PHP echo tag <?= usages.
Short open tag usage: Reports short PHP opening tag <? usages.
Single-statement body with braces: Reports the control structures (such as loops or conditionals) whose bodies are enclosed in braces but only contain a single child statement.
Traditional syntax array literal detected: Reports traditional array syntax (array()) usages in array literals and suggests replacing them with short array syntax ([]).
Trait usage is not allowed: Reports the class references that are resolved to traits but are specified outside use statements.
Trait use rule resolved to method with different containing class: Reports the trait method use rules that are resolved to methods from a different containing class rather than the one specified in the use declaration.
Type cast is unnecessary: Reports the type cast operators used on the values that are already of the corresponding type.
Type cast on a scalar value: Reports the type casts that can be evaluated in place and suggests replacing them with actual computed values.
Type hint 'array|Traversable' can be replaced with 'iterable': Reports the array|Traversable type hints that can be replaced with iterable.
Unnecessary curly braces syntax for variable: Reports unnecessary { and } used for interpolating variables in string literals.
Unnecessary double quotes: Reports double-quoted string literals that do not contain string interpolation, escape sequences, or single quotes.
Unnecessary fully qualified name: Reports the usages of fully qualified class names, which can be shortened without adding the use statement.
Unnecessary leading '\' in 'use' statement: Reports the use statements with an unnecessary leading \.
Unnecessary parentheses: Reports the expressions containing redundant parenthesis, which can be safely removed.
Usage of a variable variable: Reports the usages of variable variables (dynamic variable names such as $$a).
