Agent-skills-standard android-performance

Optimize Android app startup, UI rendering, and frame stability with Baseline Profiles and lazy initialization. Use when reducing startup time, diagnosing jank, or improving UI rendering performance. (triggers: **/*Benchmark.kt, **/*Initializer.kt, BaselineProfile, JankStats, recomposition)

Android Performance Standards

Priority: P1

1. Accelerate Startup

  • Generate Baseline Profiles for all production apps — pre-compiles critical paths (30-40% startup improvement).
  • Defer heavy SDK init using
    App Startup
    or lazy Singletons. Never block
    Application.onCreate
    .

See baseline & startup for lazy initialization patterns.

2. Eliminate UI Jank

  • Use Layout Inspector to find unnecessary recompositions.
  • Load images with Coil/Glide using proper caching and resizing (
    .crossfade()
    ).
  • LazyColumn
    must use
    key
    and stable item classes.

See baseline & startup for LazyColumn optimization.

3. Avoid Layout Bottlenecks

  • Replace nested weights with
    ConstraintLayout
    (Views) or
    Row
    /
    Column
    with
    Modifier.weight
    (Compose).
  • Never hold Activity context in Singletons — use Application context to prevent memory leaks.

Anti-Patterns

  • No Nested Weights: Use ConstraintLayout (Views) or Row/Column (Compose) instead.
  • No Activity Context in Singletons: Use Application context to prevent memory leaks.
