Get an empty app all the way to TestFlight and Play's internal track before you write a single feature. Everything painful about mobile release — programme enrollment, identity verification, signing material, store records, review, the new-account testing window — has lead time that cannot be compressed by working harder, and every one of those problems is dramatically cheaper to hit against a blank shell than against a finished app. An agent that discovers them at submission time discovers them at the worst possible moment: under deadline, with a code change required, and with nothing left to cut.

This skill only sequences. Every mechanical step below belongs to another skill in this plugin — hand off by name and do not re-derive.

Confidence marks used throughout this skill and its references: [verified] — read off a primary vendor source on the research date, or carried forward from a sibling skill in this plugin that records the primary source and date. [snippet] — secondary source only, plausible but unconfirmed. [unverified] — not confirmed anywhere; run the check given before relying on it. See Confidence and freshness.
