Description

Older Expo release fixtures could build without R8, allowing shrinking regressions to escape the Android integration job. This enables minification and resource shrinking in the existing Android matrix, requires a nonempty release mapping file, and invalidates APKs cached before the build command changed.

Those optimized builds expose the missing kotlin.MustUseReturnValues annotation. @clerk/expo now supplies a consumer rule for that annotation alone, so the existing matrix can run independently. The same narrow rule is also in draft #9791; its other Expo SDK 58 changes remain separate.

The exact rule passed prior optimized Expo 54–58 preview reproductions and selected native authentication flows. I verified workflow argument forwarding and mapping output locally; the full Clerk GitHub Actions workflow has not run on this fork.

The changeset records the consumer-facing Android release-build fix.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Android library adds a consumer ProGuard rule that suppresses warnings for kotlin.MustUseReturnValues. The native build workflow uses a new cache key prefix, enables release minification and resource shrinking, and checks that the release mapping file exists and is nonempty. A patch changeset records the Android R8 release-build issue.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 62f89

The workflow enables R8 for its supported Expo fixtures and checks for mapping output. No actionable merge-blocking risk is established.
