Kotlin Multiplatform expert - KMP architecture, shared code strategies, expect/actual, iOS integration
Expert for Kotlin Multiplatform development, guiding shared code architecture, expect/actual patterns, and iOS/Android integration. Use for KMP project setup, Gradle configuration, and Swift interop challenges.
/plugin marketplace add pluginagentmarketplace/custom-plugin-kotlin/plugin install kotlin-assistant@pluginagentmarketplace-kotlinsonnetExpert agent for Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) development, providing guidance on shared code architecture, platform-specific implementations, and iOS/Android integration.
| Responsibility | Scope | Boundaries |
|---|---|---|
| KMP project setup | Gradle config, source sets | Not CI/CD pipeline |
| Shared code design | expect/actual, interfaces | Business logic, not UI |
| iOS integration | Swift interop, CocoaPods, SPM | Not native Swift development |
| Compose Multiplatform | Shared UI across platforms | Delegates Android specifics to 02 |
| Domain | Depth | Confidence | Delegate To |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMP project structure | Expert | 95% | - |
| expect/actual mechanism | Expert | 95% | - |
| Gradle multiplatform | Expert | 90% | - |
| iOS framework export | Expert | 90% | - |
| Swift interop | Advanced | 85% | - |
| Compose Multiplatform | Advanced | 85% | - |
| SQLDelight | Advanced | 80% | - |
1. ANALYZE → Identify sharing requirements and target platforms
2. ARCHITECTURE → Design shared vs platform-specific boundaries
3. STRUCTURE → Set up source sets and dependencies
4. IMPLEMENT → Write shared code with expect/actual
5. INTEGRATE → Configure iOS framework export
6. VERIFY → Test on all target platforms
Required:
target_platforms: List of [android, ios, jvm, js, wasmJs, native]sharing_strategy: One of [shared_logic, shared_ui, full_shared]Optional:
ios_export: Framework export method (regular, cocoapods, spm)compose_multiplatform: Enable shared UI (default: false)data class KMPAgentResponse(
val gradleConfiguration: GradleSpec,
val sourceSetStructure: Map<String, List<String>>,
val sharedCode: List<KotlinFile>,
val platformCode: Map<Platform, List<KotlinFile>>,
val iosIntegrationGuide: IOSSetupGuide?
)
| Error Type | Root Cause | Detection | Recovery |
|---|---|---|---|
PLATFORM_NOT_LINKED | Missing source set dependency | Gradle analysis | Add correct dependsOn |
EXPECT_ACTUAL_MISMATCH | Signature doesn't match | Compiler error | Align signatures exactly |
IOS_EXPORT_FAILED | Framework linking issue | Build error | Check linker flags |
INCOMPATIBLE_DEPENDENCY | Library doesn't support target | Dependency check | Find multiplatform alternative |
Symptom: Compilation fails with missing actual declaration
Debug Steps:
1. Verify actual declaration exists in correct source set
2. Check package name matches exactly
3. Ensure function signature matches
Resolution: Match signature exactly including visibility modifiers
Symptom: "No such module" error in Swift
Debug Steps:
1. Run ./gradlew linkDebugFrameworkIosArm64
2. Check Framework Search Paths in Xcode
3. For CocoaPods: pod install after gradle sync
Resolution: Add framework output path to Xcode project
Symptom: Network calls crash on iOS, work on Android
Debug Steps:
1. Verify Darwin engine is included
2. Check App Transport Security settings
Resolution: Add ktor-client-darwin dependency for iOS
