Build Verify

Run the full verification suite once after all implementation work is done. This replaces per-task verification — the implementation flow is uninterrupted and centralizes all build / test / analyze / format checks here.

Usage

Run the orchestrator script:

.claude/skills/build-verify/scripts/verify.sh

It runs the Dart phase (codegen + analyze + test) sequentially with fail-fast, then runs the iOS and Android native builds in parallel, then dart format once both have passed.

By default the script auto-scopes based on what changed (committed vs ${BASE_REF:-main} plus uncommitted). Auto-scoping skips irrelevant work so small, single-platform changes aren't forced to build everything:

Diff shape	Auto-behavior
All changes under ios/ only	Skip Android native build
All changes under android/ only	Skip iOS native build
All changes under test/ only	Skip both native builds
No annotation- or pubspec-relevant changes	Skip make gen codegen
Mixed, empty, or no diff	Run everything

The auto-scope decision is printed at the top of the run so it's never silent.

Flags

Flag	What it does
--full	Disable auto-scoping — run everything regardless of diff
--skip-gen	Explicitly skip make gen (assume codegen is current — also disables auto-scope)
--skip-builds	Skip native iOS + Android builds (only run Dart phase + format)
--ios-only	Run only the iOS native build (still runs Dart phase; also disables auto-scope)
--android-only	Run only the Android native build (still runs Dart phase; also disables auto-scope)

Environment

Var	Default	Used for
FLAVOR	develop	Flutter build flavor + entrypoint (lib/main_$FLAVOR.dart)
BASE_REF	auto-detected	Branch to diff against for auto-scoping

Example: FLAVOR=staging ./.claude/skills/build-verify/scripts/verify.sh.

What each phase does

Dart phase — sequential, fail-fast (runs from the repo root):

1. fvm flutter pub get (always — cheap and ensures deps are in sync).
2. make gen — unless --skip-gen or auto-skipped. Runs flutter gen-l10n and dart run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs.
3. fvm flutter analyze.
4. fvm flutter test.

Native builds — both run in parallel after the Dart phase passes:

• iOS: fvm flutter build ios --no-codesign --flavor "$FLAVOR" -t "lib/main_$FLAVOR.dart"
• Android: fvm flutter build apk --debug --flavor "$FLAVOR" -t "lib/main_$FLAVOR.dart"

Both verify compilation on each platform; iOS skips codesigning so it doesn't need provisioning profiles, and Android uses the debug variant so it doesn't need a release keystore.

On non-macOS hosts, the script skips the iOS native build automatically unless --ios-only was explicitly requested. Explicit iOS-only verification fails fast off macOS because flutter build ios requires Darwin/Xcode.

Format — runs after native builds pass: fvm dart format lib test. This auto-rewrites files; the script reports how many files changed so the user can review.

Output

Each native track writes to its own log under a temp directory. On success, only a short summary is printed. On failure, the last 150 lines of the failing track's log are printed and the full log path is included for inspection.

Report a concise summary to the user:

• Pub get / codegen: [OK] / [SKIPPED]
• Analyze: [OK] / [FAIL]
• Test: [OK] / [FAIL]
• iOS build: [OK] / [FAIL] / [SKIPPED]
• Android build: [OK] / [FAIL] / [SKIPPED]
• Format: [OK] (and how many files were auto-formatted, if any)

Remind the user that nothing has been committed — they can now run pr-review, review and commit manually, or invoke create-pr when ready.

Failure Handling

If the script exits non-zero:

1. Read the printed log tail carefully; open the full log if needed.
2. Fix the underlying issue in the source code. Do NOT disable checks, skip tests, or paper over the issue.
3. Re-run. If only one native track failed, you can re-run just that track with --ios-only / --android-only to save time — but always do a full verify.sh run before declaring done.

If a step fails repeatedly (3+ attempts) and the fix is not obvious, stop and report the failure to the user rather than continuing.

Rules

• Never commit. Even if format auto-rewrites files, leave them uncommitted.
• Never skip phases silently. The script prints its auto-scope decision; include that line in the summary you report to the user so they know what ran vs. what was skipped. If you use explicit flags (--ios-only / --android-only / --skip-gen / --skip-builds / --full), say so explicitly as well.
• Trust the auto-scope default. Don't reach for --full unless you actually need to validate cross-platform or you've changed shared infra (e.g. pubspec.yaml, theming, routing) the auto-scoper can't classify.
• Root-cause fixes only. Don't suppress warnings with // ignore: or dynamic, and don't disable a test to make verification pass.
• Use FVM. All Flutter / Dart invocations go through fvm so the pinned SDK in .fvmrc is used. The script checks for fvm and exits early if it isn't on PATH.
