We had a similar PR (#57957) a couple of days ago that got closed.

In case you want to avoid these checks, you can try the code I added within a comment there:

#57957 (comment)

Changing theif check to something like:

if (str_starts_with($key,'illuminate:queue:')) {

Would it make sense to throw an exception in the queue pausing commands if this static property is set to false?

@cosmastech Yeah, I think that makes sense 🙂

Didn't want to do too much just incase there's no interest in this, But I'll have a poke, thank you 🙏

Edit: I've poked it, but won't add them for now to prevent any scope creep, but happy for either of us / anyone to add them if this is merged / if Taylor likes the idea.

@rodrigopedra Nice one- yeah not sure. I might still try this PR just out of interest as extending it feels awkward I guess. Thank you 🙏

@jackbayliss any chance we can also get a doc update on how to use this? We also have heavy queues that do not pause / restart, would like to fix this so we aren't making as many cache hits.

@rforced I'll have a poke later tonight unless someone beats me to it!

@jackbayliss I ended up addingWorker::$pausable = false; to our AppServiceProvider, but Laravel Horizon complains this is deprecated. Where did you end up disabling the pause check in your app?

@rforced As long as you're on the latest Laravel version it should work -see the worker class

AppServiceProvider should be fine. What's the error you get? I don't use Horizon so would be useful to know :)

Alternatively you can callQueue::withoutInterruptionPolling(); to prevent both. If that works?

I think we need to keep restartable enabled, we still need php artisan horizon:terminate to restart our workers (please correct me if I'm understanding this wrong)

Here is the warning from Laravel Horizon

[2025-12-03 19:17:47] local.WARNING: Creation of dynamic property Laravel\Horizon\SupervisorOptions::$pausable is deprecated in /some/path/vendor/laravel/horizon/src/SupervisorOptions.php on line 361

@rforced

I tested it on a project that uses Horizon and can't reproduce the error.

I just added:

Worker::$pausable =false;

To my project'sAppServiceProvider@boot() method.

Some questions:

• Do you have the correctuse statement for theWorker class?
  • In that case it would beuse Illuminate\Queue\Worker;
• What version oflaravel/framework do you have installed?
  • You can verify it by runningcomposer show --direct
  • The installed version oflaravel/framework should be at least12.41.0

I'm not sure what it was@rodrigopedra@jackbayliss, maybe I didn't restart a service but I'm no longer seeing that warning.
Thank you for your help guys ❤️
