Analyzes Android build files and R8 keep rules to identify redundancies, broad package-wide rules, and rules that subsume library consumer keep rules. Use when developers want to optimize their app's size, remove redundant or overly broad keep rules, or troubleshoot Proguard configurations.
Run the analyzer on your Android project to identify redundant and broad keep rules and review the suggested refinements
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Finding redundant Proguard keep rules requires analyzing build.gradle and proguard files to detect overly broad package-wide rules that inflate APK size. The analyzer evaluates rules against an impact hierarchy to pinpoint and recommend narrowing redundant configurations.
Broad package-wide R8 keep rules hinder optimization by preventing the compiler from pruning unused classes across entire packages. This restricts code shrinking and inflates the final app size unnecessarily.
Checking if R8 consumer rules conflict with library rules involves inspecting proguard and consumer rule files to detect subsuming configurations. The analyzer identifies conflicts and provides guidance on narrowing rules based on reflection requirements.
Analyzing R8 configuration for subsuming keep rules is best done by examining build.gradle.kts, gradle.properties, and proguard files against a keep-rules-impact-hierarchy. This approach prioritizes impact and proposes targeted refinements without modifying files directly.
No, the analyzer does not modify Android project files automatically. It examines build files and R8 keep rules to generate precise recommendations and actionable guidance for narrowing rules, leaving the actual code changes to the developer.
