The online playground is running a very old version (~0.20.0 from months ago, which did not even have a static analyzer) and gives a poor impression of the current tool. That's on me to fix or take down.
The issue you saw with built-in classes like `RuntimeException` was absolutely a bug in those early alpha versions, but it has been fixed for a long time now. The analyzer has matured a lot since then.
The current beta is stable enough to be the sole static analysis tool for a couple of extremely well-typed projects:

ATK Data
Robust and high performance PHP library for unified access to (not only) SQL databases (by atk4)
Agile Data (https://github.com/atk4/data) implements an approach of DataSet abstractions - implemented in PHP. While it is similar to ORM in syntax - it operates on an entirely different level, allowing you to dynamically build multi-table queries, abstract away expression logic, and introduce extensions (such as soft-delete). All of that integrates into UI directly) making ATK a "low-code" framework that makes you write very little code.
