using-efficient-effects
From the author
Use this skill to choose the cheapest correct effect API in Jetpack Compose — `LaunchedEffect`, `DisposableEffect`, `SideEffect`, `rememberUpdatedState`, and skydoves/compose-effects' `RememberedEffect` and `ViewModelStoreScope`. Covers stale-callback bugs in long-lived `LaunchedEffect`, setup/teardown for non-coroutine subscribers, avoiding a coroutine scope just to react to a key change, and per-row ViewModels in a `LazyColumn`. Trigger when the user mentions LaunchedEffect, DisposableEffect, RememberedEffect, SideEffect, rememberUpdatedState, ViewModelStoreScope, effect restarts unexpectedly, leaked listener, or per-item ViewModel.

- choosing-derivedstateofskydoves/compose-performance-skillsUse this skill to decide when Jetpack Compose derivedStateOf is the right tool and when it is pure overhead. Covers the "input frequency must exceed output frequency" rule, the mandatory remember { derivedStateOf { } } wrapper, the canonical pitfall of capturing non-state variables by initial value (and the remember(key) fix), and the snapshotFlow alternative for fire-and-forget side effects on derived values. Use when the developer mentions derivedStateOf, scroll-position-driven booleans, threshold checks, firstVisibleItemIndex, "show FAB on scroll", recomposition counts that don't drop after wrapping a value, or asks whether a computed string concatenation should use derivedStateOf.Other★ 524
- configuring-lazy-prefetchskydoves/compose-performance-skillsUse this skill to tune Jetpack Compose lazy-layout prefetch with LazyLayoutCacheWindow (Compose Foundation 1.9+, @ExperimentalFoundationApi) and pausable composition in prefetch (Compose Foundation 1.10+, default on). Covers configurable Dp-based ahead/behind cache windows plumbed through rememberLazyListState(cacheWindow = ...), NestedPrefetchScope for items containing inner lazy layouts (HorizontalPager inside a LazyColumn row), version requirements, and the trade-off between memory pressure and idle-frame work. Use when the developer mentions dropped frames at high scroll velocity, prefetch window, ahead/behind extents, LazyLayoutCacheWindow, NestedPrefetchScope, pausable composition for prefetch, or wants composition retained for items briefly scrolled past. Item-level fixes (keys, contentType) live in a sibling skill.Planning★ 524
- jetpack-compose-performanceandroid/skillsDiagnose and optimize Android Jetpack Compose UI code. Use this skill when analyzing performance bottlenecks of existing code to minimize recomposition overhead and prevent dropped frames and UI lag.OfficialDesign★ 10.3K
- edge-to-edgeandroid/skillsUse this skill to migrate your Jetpack Compose app to add adaptive edge-to-edge support and troubleshoot common issues. Use this skill to fix UI components (like buttons or lists) that are obscured by or overlapping with the navigation bar or status bar, fix IME insets, and fix system bar legibility.OfficialDesign★ 10.3K
- debugging-recompositionsskydoves/compose-performance-skillsUse this skill to find which Jetpack Compose composables are recomposing and why, using Android Studio Layout Inspector recomposition counts and skip counts, the per-parameter Argument Change Reasons (Changed / Unchanged / Uncertain / Static / Unknown) introduced in Android Studio Hedgehog and later, and runtime `@TraceRecomposition` from `compose-stability-analyzer` for production-like measurement. Walks through enabling counts, mapping each Argument Change Reason to a fix, and confirming the result in a release build. Use when the developer says "this should be skipping but isn't", "I want to see recomposition counts", asks what "Uncertain" or "Unknown" means in the inspector, or needs to confirm a stability or strong-skipping fix actually worked end-to-end.Engineering★ 524
- auditing-compose-performanceskydoves/compose-performance-skillsUse this skill to run an end-to-end Jetpack Compose performance audit when the symptom is broad ("the app feels sluggish", "scroll is rough everywhere", "we're starting a perf sprint", "what should we fix first?"). Orchestrates the four-phase Measure → Diagnose → Fix → Verify loop by sequencing the 25 focused skills (release-mode setup, R8, Baseline Profiles, Compose Compiler reports, stability inference, Layout Inspector, `@TraceRecomposition`, stabilization, strong skipping, phase-deferral, derivedStateOf, lazy layouts, lazy prefetch, Modifier.Node, modifier ordering, flow collection, effects, CI gates, hot-reload) and produces a written audit report with Before/After Macrobenchmark numbers. Use when the developer wants a perf sprint kickoff, a pre-release perf gate, onboarding to a perf-troubled codebase, or a written deliverable. Use when the user mentions "audit", "perf review", "perf sprint", "where do I start", or has no specific symptom yet.Writing★ 524
