android-persistence

Standards for Room Database and DataStore. Use when implementing Room database schemas or DataStore preferences in Android. (triggers: **/*Dao.kt, **/*Database.kt, **/*Entity.kt, @Dao, @Entity, RoomDatabase)

25 stars

Best use case

android-persistence is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.

Standards for Room Database and DataStore. Use when implementing Room database schemas or DataStore preferences in Android. (triggers: **/*Dao.kt, **/*Database.kt, **/*Entity.kt, @Dao, @Entity, RoomDatabase)

Teams using android-persistence should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.

When to use this skill

  • You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.

When not to use this skill

  • You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
  • You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Android Persistence Standards

## **Priority: P0**

## Implementation Guidelines

### Room

- **Async**: Return `Flow<List<T>>` for queries, use `suspend` for Write/Insert.
- **Entities**: Keep simple `@Entity` data classes. Map to Domain models in Repository.
- **Transactions**: Use `@Transaction` for multi-table queries (Relations).

### DataStore

- **Usage**: Replace `SharedPreferences` with `ProtoDataStore` (Type-safe) or `PreferencesDataStore`.
- **Scope**: Inject singleton instance via Hilt.

## Anti-Patterns

- **No IO on Main Thread**: Room handles dispatchers, but verify Flow is collected off-main.
- **No @Entity in UI Layer**: Map to Domain or UI models in Repository.
