Agent Skills: Android Deployment Standards

Configure App Distribution — Signing, Obfuscation, and App Bundles for Android. Use when configuring Release build types, setting up signing configs, enabling R8/ProGuard minification, adding ProGuard keep rules, or preparing an .aab for Play Store submission. (triggers: build.gradle.kts, proguard-rules.pro, signingConfigs, proguard, minifyEnabled, isMinifyEnabled, isShrinkResources, .aab, releaseKeystore)

Android Deployment Standards

Priority: P0

Implementation Guidelines

Build Configuration

  • Minification: Always enable isMinifyEnabled = true and isShrinkResources = true for Release builds (R8).
  • Format: Publish using App Bundles (.aab) for Play Store optimization.
  • Signing: NEVER commit keystores or passwords. Use Environment Variables / Secrets.

Proguard / R8

  • Rules: Keep rules minimal. Use annotations (@Keep) for reflection-heavy classes instead of broad wildcard rules.
  • Mapping: Upload mapping.txt to Play Console for crash de-obfuscation.

Anti-Patterns

  • No debuggable=true in Release: Breaks obfuscation and exposes internal logic.
  • No Secrets in Repo: Use local.properties or CI environment variables.
