Claude loads it when the task matches- android-update-deps
Reviews and safely updates the dependencies of an Android project (Android Studio; Kotlin/Gradle) that uses a Gradle version catalog. Detects available updates with the ben-manes gradle-versions-plugin, checks JitPack libraries, assesses risk (hidden SDK requirements, known vulnerabilities, Google Play's 16 KB page size and SDK Index), and — only after explicit confirmation — edits libs.versions.toml, verifies with an Android build (:app:assembleDebug), commits locally, and in a separate commit adapts the existing code to the new APIs. Use this whenever the user wants to update, review, or bump dependencies in an Android app, asks "what's outdated" or whether its libraries are vulnerable or 16 KB compatible, wants Dependabot/Renovate PRs reviewed, mentions libs.versions.toml / version catalog / AGP / Compose BOM upgrades, or runs /android-update-deps — in English or Spanish ("actualiza/revisa las dependencias", "qué hay desactualizado").
