It is generally recommended to explicitly declare the visibility for methods.
Adding explicit visibility (private, protected, or public) is generally
recommend to communicate to other developers how, and from where this method
is intended to be used.
Both the $myVar assignment in line 1 and the $higher assignment in line 2
are dead. The first because $myVar is never used and the second because
$higher is always overwritten for every possible time line.

The return type of return preg_match(\Jarvi...ed_class()), $command); (integer) is incompatible with the return type declared by the interface JarvisPHP\Core\JarvisPluginInterface::isLikely of type boolean.
If you return a value from a function or method, it should be a sub-type of the
type that is given by the parent type f.e. an interface, or abstract method.
This is more formally defined by the
Lizkov substitution principle,
and guarantees that classes that depend on the parent type can use any instance
of a child type interchangably. This principle also belongs to the
SOLID principles
for object oriented design.
Our function my_function expects a Post object, and outputs the author
of the post. The base class Post returns a simple string and outputting a
simple string will work just fine. However, the child class BlogPost which
is a sub-type of Post instead decided to return an object, and is
therefore violating the SOLID principles. If a BlogPost were passed to
my_function, PHP would not complain, but ultimately fail when executing the
strtoupper call in its body.

The PSR-2 coding standard requires that all properties in a class have their visibility explicitly declared. If you declare a property using
the property is implicitly global.
