android-tooling
Standards for Static Analysis (Detekt, Ktlint) and CI/CD Checks. Use when adding or tuning Detekt/Ktlint rules, setting Android Lint as a CI gate, suppressing lint warnings with @Suppress, or configuring code quality checks on pull requests. (triggers: build.gradle.kts, detekt.yml, .detekt/config.yml, detekt, ktlint, lint, @Suppress, abortOnError, jlleitschuh)
Best use case
android-tooling is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.

Teams using android-tooling 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 Tooling Standards ## **Priority: P1** ## Implementation Guidelines ### Static Analysis - **Detekt**: Enforce code complexity rules (LongMethod, LargeClass). Fail build on high complexity. - **Ktlint**: Enforce formatting style (Indent, Spacing). Use `jlleitschuh` plugin. - **Android Lint**: Treat warnings as errors in CI (`abortOnError = true`). ### CI Gates - **Pre-commit**: Run lightweight checks (formatting) locally. - **Pipeline**: Run full checks (Detekt + Lint + Unit Tests) on Pull Request. ## Anti-Patterns - **No @Suppress in Production**: Fix the Detekt/lint violation at source. - **No Manual Formatting**: Let Ktlint handle it — configure auto-format on save in IDE. ## References - [Configuration](references/implementation.md)
