Using the Stability Analyzer IDE Plugin — live in-editor stability feedback
The Compose Compiler reports tell the developer about stability after a build completes. The
skydoves/compose-stability-analyzer IntelliJ plugin tells them while they edit. Gutter icons mark
every @Composable with a color, hover docs render the per-parameter table with reasons, inline
hints render colored badges next to each parameter type, and the UnstableComposable weak-warning
inspection surfaces actionable problems with quick fixes.
The plugin uses the Kotlin K2 Analysis API to evaluate the same stability rules that drive
../understanding-stability-inference/SKILL.md, so editor feedback agrees with what
../diagnosing-compose-stability/SKILL.md would later show in the compiler reports. This shortens
the loop from "ship → build → read reports" to "type → see the gutter".
