Plugins load via DexClassLoader, so R8 sees no reference to what they call. Only plugin-api was protected, by the existing -keep on com.itsaky.androidide.plugins.**; the other three modules merged into the published plugin-api coordinate (common, eventbus-events, idetooltips) had no rule and survived only because the host happens to use them. generatePluginApiKeepRules emits one -keep per class from the fat jar assemblePluginApiFatJar already builds, so the rules are exactly the published ABI and cannot drift as classes move. Package wildcards would over-keep: :common spans 21 packages and shares com.itsaky.androidide.utils with :idetooltips and :app. Measured on v8 debug at 28e00f1: all 420 ABI classes and every callable member already survive R8 today, so this ticket's reported breakage does not reproduce. Verified in the shipped dex and on device, where a probe plugin loaded and resolved 420/420 ABI classes against an R8-shrunk host. The rules cost 80 bytes of dex and leave the defined method count unchanged; they turn an accident into a guarantee. R8 itself saves 18.34 MB of dex (157.0 -> 138.6 MB, 36 -> 16 dex files). Side effect: assemblePluginApiFatJar hardcodes the v8Release variants of the three add-on modules, so a v7 release build now also compiles those.

📝 Walkthrough
WalkthroughThe build script replaces untyped keep-rule generation with a typed Gradle task. The release configuration consumes the generated rules through ChangesPlugin API keep rules
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to Although the plugin ABI keep-rule change is localized, the release workflow still allows a user-controlled ref to reach shell source on a self-hosted runner, creating a code-execution risk; this PR is not safe to merge until that workflow issue is fixed.

release.yml pins the build job to main (ref: main plus a hardcoded BRANCH_TO_CHECKOUT) and always merges stage into main first, so there is no way to exercise the release R8 path against a feature branch before it lands. Adds two workflow_dispatch inputs: ref, defaulting to main so the scheduled release path is unchanged, and dry_run, which skips the stage->main merge and every publish step (Firebase App Distribution, Cloudflare R2, Slack, Telegram) and uploads the release APK as a workflow artifact instead. Temporary: this exists to verify the generated plugin-ABI keep rules in a real release build and is reverted once that run is green.

Keep ref out of shell source.
inputs.ref accepts valid Git refs that contain shell syntax, such as feature/$(id). Both lines 541 and 662 interpolate this value into shell source. Pass it through env: and use "$BRANCH_NAME" in each step. Write outputs with printf and quoted variables.

Skipping the merge_stage_to_main job skipped the entire downstream chain: GitHub propagates a skipped job through needs transitively, so download_documentation and build_apk were skipped even though download_assets overrode it with always(). The run went green having built nothing. Every job now runs unconditionally and only the mutating steps are gated, so there is no needs-result gymnastics to get wrong: the stage->main merge, Cancel previous runs (a dry run must not cancel an in-flight scheduled release), and the publish steps.
Adding the generated file with buildType.proguardFile plus a dependsOn on the R8 task only covered R8. Lint reads the same proguardFiles list, so a release build failed validation: ":app:lintVitalAnalyzeV7Release uses this output of task ':app:generatePluginApiKeepRules' without declaring an explicit or implicit dependency". Naming each consumer is whack-a-mole, and the local minify-only check never ran lint, so it passed. GeneratePluginApiKeepRules now exposes a typed @OutputFile and the provider goes into Variant.proguardFiles (release variants only, so debug builds do not pull in the fat jar), letting Gradle infer the dependency for every consumer. Verified locally by running the task that failed: minifyV8ReleaseWithR8 plus lintVitalAnalyzeV8Release and generateV8ReleaseLintVitalReportModel in one graph.
The matrix cancelled the v8 job when v7 failed, so one dry run reported only half the picture. fail-fast now follows dry_run: off for a verification run, unchanged for the scheduled release.
Reverts the ref and dry_run workflow_dispatch inputs, the per-step gating, and the dry-run fail-fast override. They existed only to build this branch's release variants without publishing, which run 32308865092 did: v7 and v8 both green, all publish steps skipped. release.yml is now byte-identical to its state at 28e00f1.
