software-android-runtime-debugging

software-android-runtime-debugging is a skill for Codex from vasilyu1983/AI-Agents-public. It costs 46 tokens per session (4,403 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A troubleshooting guide for proving that a native Android build installs and runs correctly, then investigating crashes, freezes, slow screens, and memory leaks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check APK or AAB build and launch behavior, diagnose Gradle and ADB issues, investigate ANRs, jank, memory use, startup speed, and Compose performance.
Why use it?
It helps separate stale builds, emulator or device problems, and build-tool failures from genuine application bugs.

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

software-android-runtime-debugging 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 9d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 220 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Native Android Runtime Debugging

Use this skill when the core problem is not app architecture or visual design, but runtime truth: did the current APK/AAB build, install, launch, and render on the intended emulator or device — and, once that's proven, why is it slow, freezing, or leaking memory?

This skill owns stale-build suspicion, emulator drift, malformed APKs, ADB failures, Gradle cache corruption, ProGuard/R8 stripping, Compose recomposition issues, ANR/jank/memory/startup performance triage, and the proof loop required before trusting screenshots, UI behavior, or downstream API/auth debugging.

Platform Currency (as of 2026-07-11)

  • Android 17 (API 37) shipped 2026-06-16; Android 16 (API 36) is the prior release. Verify at developer.android.com/about/versions before citing a specific version as latest — this changes roughly annually.
  • Google Play target API policy: new apps and app updates must target API level 36 (Android 16) or higher as of the 2026-08-31 deadline, with a one-time extension to 2026-11-01 available by request. Re-verify at developer.android.com/google/play/requirements/target-sdk rather than hardcoding a number.
  • 16KB page-size support is mandatory for app updates shipping native (.so) libraries as of 2026-05-01. An app whose ELF LOAD segments are still 4KB-aligned runs in a 16KB backcompat mode; test on a 16KB-page-size emulator image, not just the default. Verify current enforcement at developer.android.com/guide/practices/page-sizes.
  • AGP 9.x is the current stable Android Gradle Plugin series (crossed the 9.0 major boundary in early 2026); it raises the minimum Gradle version and enables built-in Kotlin support by default. Verify current minimums at developer.android.com/build/releases/gradle-plugin-roadmap before assuming an AGP-8-era Gradle wrapper still works.
  • Android Studio current stable is the Quail series (2026.1.x); the prior Otter series (2025.2.x) is now legacy. Verify the live release name/version at developer.android.com/studio/releases — Google renames each yearly series and this drifts within months.
  • Perfetto, not Systrace, is the current system- and app-tracing stack; Systrace is retired. See references/performance-triage.md.

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.
