Agent Quick Fix

The source can compile on the developer's newer device while the SDK's newly raised deployment/minSdk target fails older build or runtime matrices.

Product: Firebase Apple SDK
Current-contract area: Firebase 12 macOS/platform floor conflicts with shared package
Likely root cause: A Swift package used by app and command-line targets cannot resolve one deployment target.
Repair direction: Verifier checks an explicit product decision: raise the app floor with metadata/tests, or pin a still-supported SDK line. Verify deployment metadata and end-to-end link/call behavior.

Symptom

Why This Happens

Verification

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.
