rnett

Reads and searches source code across ALL scopes: external library dependencies, plugins (buildscript), and Gradle Build Tool internal source code; use whenever you need to UNDERSTAND an API — its shape, signature, parameters, overloads, or implementation — before writing any code that calls it; covers project dependencies (via project/configuration/source set scope), plugins (via `sourceSetPath=":buildscript"`), and Gradle internals (via `gradleSource: true`). Prefer this over the REPL for all API research; reading source is instantaneous and complete. Do NOT use for project source code (use grep/tilth), Gradle documentation (use `gradle_docs` via the `gradle` skill), or Maven Central discovery (use `managing_gradle_dependencies`).

Provides authoritative guidance for ALL Gradle operations: executing builds, running tests with surgical filtering, introspecting project structure, creating modules, and diagnosing failures; ALWAYS use instead of raw shell `./gradlew` for build execution, test runs, task introspection, module creation, performance audits, and documentation research. Do NOT use for dependency graph auditing/updates (use `managing_gradle_dependencies`) or dependency/plugin/Gradle source exploration (use `exploring_dependency_sources`).

Executes Kotlin code interactively within the project's full JVM classpath. Use when you need to RUN code: verify runtime behavior, experiment with logic, or render Compose UI previews. Do NOT use to understand an API's shape or signature — read its source with `exploring_dependency_sources` instead.

Audits and manages Gradle dependency graphs with high-resolution update checks, transitive tree analysis, and Maven Central discovery; use for dependency auditing, finding stable updates, and resolving GAV coordinates. Do NOT use for exploring dependency source code (use `exploring_dependency_sources`) or running builds/tests (use `gradle`).

Visually verifies Compose UI components by rendering @Composable/@Preview functions to images from the project's JVM runtime; STRONGLY PREFERRED for rapid UI iteration and visual feedback on any composable. Do NOT use for build lifecycle tasks or dependency auditing.

Integrates Kotlin version updates from Renovate and orchestrates release workflows via GitHub Actions. Triggers when updating Kotlin version, releasing a new version, or integrating Renovate PRs.

Designs, models, and implements Kotlin compiler extensions using K2/FIR and IR. Guides modifications to SpektGenerator (IR), ProxyGenerator (IR), and InspektChecker (FIR). Handles synthetic declaration generation, FIR status/supertype transformations, and IR backend lowerings. Use when implementing reflection features, fixing plugin bugs, or engineering compiler diagnostics.

Audits, validates, and verifies Kotlin compiler plugin transformations and diagnostics. Orchestrates testing using Golden File comparisons across .fir.txt and .ir.txt dumps. Automates test actualization and handles runtime verification with .box.txt phase tests. Use when validating plugin behavior, auditing test coverage, or reproducing compiler issues.
