Agent Quick Fix

Build scripts can be syntactically plausible while the current build-system major removes implicit artifacts/APIs or raises its daemon runtime floor.

Product: Firebase Android
Current-contract area: Firebase Performance plugin raises minimum Gradle/AGP versions
Likely root cause: Build fails loading the plugin on an older but otherwise functioning Android toolchain.
Repair direction: Verifier checks explicit modern configuration and supported daemon/toolchain separation. Check the resolved dependency graph and runtime behavior on the declared minimum platform.

Validation Status

Codex searched organically in the validation run. No no-web counterfactual is attached to this page yet.

Symptom

Build fails loading the plugin on an older but otherwise functioning Android toolchain.

Why This Happens

Build scripts can be syntactically plausible while the current build-system major removes implicit artifacts/APIs or raises its daemon runtime floor.

Verification

Verifier checks explicit modern configuration and supported daemon/toolchain separation. Check the resolved dependency graph and runtime behavior on the declared minimum platform.

Common Wrong Fixes

  • Changing local code without checking the current external contract.
  • Retrying the same install, build, or API call with no version/source change.
  • Applying a broad unsafe bypass when a narrow compatibility fix is available.
