Phan's philosophy is to prove incorrectness rather than correctness, reducing noise and making it practical for real-world codebases as emphasized in the README.

It checks type safety and compatibility across PHP 8.1 to 8.5, helping maintain code quality during version upgrades, as noted in the features section.

Plugins allow adding custom checks for regex validation, printf formats, and coding style, extending analysis beyond core features, with examples listed in the plugins directory.

Can run on multiple cores using pcntl, speeding up analysis for large projects, which is highlighted as a key feature in the README.
