Limrun Gradle

Need a remote Android build without installing Gradle or Android Studio locally? limrun-gradle runs `lim gradle build` against a remote sandbox that syncs your sources, runs the project's own Gradle wrapper, and streams the output, so it works the same from Linux, Windows, macOS, or a container. It handles debug APKs, release AABs, Expo prebuild when there's no `android/` folder, and tool version pinning with `lim gradle use`. The part I'd look at first is `--sign`: Limrun generates and escrows an upload key per app, so Play uploads keep matching across machines and CI without you managing a keystore. Once the APK exists, the skill hands off to limrun-android-emulator for installing and driving it.

Remote Gradle build

Build Android projects on Limrun's remote Gradle sandboxes, from any environment (Linux, Windows, macOS, VM, container). lim gradle build syncs your sources to a remote instance, runs the project's own Gradle wrapper there, and streams the build output. This workflow builds on the remote instance; local Gradle, a local Android SDK, and local emulators are not part of it. A finished run has the app running on a Limrun emulator or the artifact delivered.

For iOS builds, use limrun-xcode instead of this skill. For the Expo dev-client loop (Metro, hot reload) on either platform, use limrun-expo-development; it comes back here for the Android Debug build.

Auth and CLI

Install if needed: npm install --global lim. Auth is lim login or LIM_API_KEY (it may already be set in the user's environment even when .env and the shell do not show it; check before asking for it). The CLI is the source of truth: the commands in this skill are verified, but if a flag errors or you need one not shown here, check --help instead of guessing:

lim gradle --help
lim gradle build --help
