android-kotlin-patterns

android-kotlin-patterns is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cosmicstack-labs/mercury-agent-skills. It costs 29 tokens per session (463 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of patterns for building Android apps with Kotlin, Google's Jetpack libraries, and common tools for screens, databases, networking, background work, and dependency setup. It also covers preparing apps for Play Store submission.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build Android apps with Jetpack Compose, Room, Coroutines, Retrofit, ViewModel, and Hilt, then prepare them for release.
Why use it?
It gives Android projects a consistent structure for managing UI state, data, navigation, and asynchronous work.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

android-kotlin-patterns 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 4d 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.

What it actually says

Android Kotlin Patterns

Production Android development with Kotlin and Jetpack.

Architecture (Modern Android Dev)

Recommended Stack

  • UI: Jetpack Compose with Material 3
  • State: ViewModel + StateFlow
  • DI: Hilt/Dagger
  • DB: Room
  • Network: Retrofit + OkHttp
  • Async: Coroutines + Flow
  • Navigation: Compose Navigation

Project Structure

│   ├── local/ (Room DAOs, entities)
│   ├── remote/ (Retrofit APIs, DTOs)

│   ├── model/
│   └── usecase/
├── ui/
│   ├── components/

│   └── theme/
└── di/ (Hilt modules)

Jetpack Compose Patterns

State Hoisting

// State flows down, events flow up
@Composable
fun CounterScreen(viewModel: CounterViewModel = hiltViewModel()) {
    val state by viewModel.state.collectAsStateWithLifecycle()
    CounterContent(
        count = state.count,
        onIncrement = viewModel::increment
    )
}

Performance

  • Use remember and derivedStateOf for computations
  • LazyColumn for lists, not Column with scrolling
  • Stable types via @Immutable/@Stable annotations

Play Store Submission

  • Privacy Policy URL set
  • App signing key backed up
  • In-app reviews integrated
  • Crash reporting (Firebase)
  • proguard-rules.pro configured
  • App bundles (.aab) for distribution
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
