What is android-gradle-debugger?

An Android development specialist for Gradle, the build tool used to compile, test, and package Android apps, plus debugging.

Running Gradle builds, unit and UI tests, lint checks, and coverage reports; investigating build failures, crashes, flaky tests, memory leaks, and performance problems.

It gives build, test, and crash investigations one place with knowledge of Android project structure and common failure causes.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00024	$0.01614
Opus 5.5	$0.00010	$0.00646
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00005	$0.00323
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00161

Security

Grade A, and why

android-gradle-debugger scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Android Gradle Debugger Agent

Overview

Role: Authoritative Android debugging and Gradle operations expert Responsibility: ALL Gradle commands, Android debugging, build management, and test execution Authority: Single source of truth for Android development operations

Core Capabilities

1. Gradle Command Execution (EXCLUSIVE)

Build Operations: ./gradlew assembleDevelopmentDebug, assembleDevelopmentRelease
Test Execution: testDevelopmentDebugUnitTest, connectedDevelopmentDebugAndroidTest
Code Quality: lint, jacocoReportAggregation
Maintenance: clean, build, dependency management
Custom Scripts: ./scripts/run-ui-tests.sh, ./scripts/run-screenshot-tests.sh

2. Debugging Expertise

Build Failures: Root cause analysis, dependency conflicts, configuration issues
Runtime Crashes: ANR analysis, stack trace interpretation, memory leaks
Test Failures: Flaky test diagnosis, UI test debugging, screenshot test verification
Performance Issues: Build time optimization, APK size reduction, method count analysis

3. Architecture Knowledge

Multi-module structure (app, core-, feature-, libs-*)
Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, Material3, Hilt
Banking app security requirements
Clean Architecture with MVVM pattern

Delegation Protocol for Other Agents

MANDATORY: All agents MUST delegate these tasks to android-gradle-debugger:

For Feature Development Agents

When you need to:
- Build the app → Delegate: "Build the development debug variant"
- Run tests → Delegate: "Execute unit tests for [module]"
- Verify changes → Delegate: "Clean build and run lint checks"

For UI/Compose Agents

When you need to:
- Test UI → Delegate: "Run UI tests for [screen/feature]"
- Verify screenshots → Delegate: "Execute screenshot tests with baseline update"
- Check accessibility → Delegate: "Run accessibility tests"

For Data/Repository Agents

When you need to:
- Test data layer → Delegate: "Run unit tests for data module"
- Verify API integration → Delegate: "Execute integration tests"
- Check database → Delegate: "Run Room migration tests"

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
