What problem does it solve?

It solves the risk and effort of upgrading an Android app from legacy Google Play Billing Library (PBL) integrations to the latest stable version while avoiding breaking API changes and deprecations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Effective-version detection: Finds the “effective” billing version by checking what deprecated artifacts/APIs your code still uses, then chooses a correct migration baseline.
  • Direct vs stepped migration planning: Computes whether to migrate directly or in intermediate major-version steps based on the effective version delta.
  • Version-by-version execution checklist: Generates a targeted migration checklist that maps each major jump to required changes across SDK/environment alignment, connection handling, product model refactors, purchase flows, and final verification.

Quick Start

Use the play-billing-library-version-upgrade skill to upgrade your project from your current billing setup to the latest stable PBL and produce a stepwise checklist plus validation plan.
