Android Gradle Build Logic

When To Use

• Use this skill when the request is about: android gradle plugin setup, fix build logic for android modules, version catalog for android repo.
• Primary outcome: Shape Android build logic with Gradle, version catalogs, plugins, convention patterns, and toolchain compatibility.
• Handoff skills when the scope expands:
• android-modernization-upgrade
• android-ci-cd-release-playstore

Workflow

1. Map the request to the current Android stack, module boundaries, and minimum supported API level.
2. Inspect the existing implementation for implicit assumptions, duplicate helpers, and outdated patterns.
3. Apply the smallest change that improves correctness, readability, and long-term maintainability.
4. Validate the result against the relevant showcase app path and repo benchmarks.
5. Hand off adjacent work to the next specialized skill only after the core foundation is stable.
