Agent Skills: Kotlin Tooling Standards

Configure Gradle Kotlin DSL, Version Catalogs, and MockK for Kotlin projects. Use when configuring build.gradle.kts, setting up libs.versions.toml, adding MockK for tests, or choosing between Kotlin-compatible test assertion libraries. (triggers: build.gradle.kts, libs.versions.toml, detekt.yml, mockk, kts, version catalog, kotest)

Kotlin Tooling Standards

Priority: P2 (RECOMMENDED)

Consistent build and quality verification tools.

Implementation Guidelines

  • Gradle DSL: Use Kotlin DSL (build.gradle.kts) exclusively — type safety and better IDE support.
  • Version Management: Use Version Catalogs (libs.versions.toml).
  • Linter: Use Ktlint for formatting and Detekt for complexity/code-smell analysis.
  • Testing: Use MockK for mocking (first-class Kotlin support). Use JUnit 5.
  • Assertions: Use Truth or Kotest Assertions for fluent, readable test output.

Anti-Patterns

  • No Groovy Gradle: Use Kotlin DSL (build.gradle.kts) exclusively; avoid legacy build.gradle.
  • No Mockito in Kotlin: when/then conflicts with Kotlin when; use MockK (every/verify).
  • No Hardcoded Versions: Manage all versions in libs.versions.toml; never inline in build files.
