android: a Kotlin/Compose app that drives the Rust core (M12 step 5)
The skeleton, and the lane that builds it. Gradle invokes cargo-ndk to
cross-compile thoughtsync-ffi for four ABIs, generates the Kotlin bindings from
the resulting .so, and packages both.

BUILT ON MINSTREL'S TOOLCHAIN, not a fresh guess. Gradle 9.1.0 / AGP 9.0.1 /
Kotlin 2.3.21 on JDK 25 is the combination already proven in this family on
ci-android, including the JDK 22+ native-access opt-in the launcher JVM needs
and the artifact-upload action pinned by SHA (issues 2255 / 2270). It also
independently confirms the JDK 25 call made on ci-rust-android in step 3.

Gradle wiring worth noting:

  * ExecOperations, not project.exec — the latter was REMOVED in Gradle 9, and
    touching `project` at execution time is also what breaks the configuration
    cache this build enables.
  * The cargo task's inputs are the Rust SOURCES, not the workspace directory.
    Declaring the directory would make Gradle hash target/, which is gigabytes.
  * Bindings are generated with `--library` against the built .so, so they can
    never describe a different version of the Rust than the one being packaged.
  * cargo runs --locked, so an Android build cannot silently re-resolve the
    lockfile the desktop lanes are gated on.

JNA is a real dependency, with the @aar classifier. The plain jar builds fine
and fails at runtime with UnsatisfiedLinkError, which is the worst way to learn
it. R8 keep rules for JNA and the bindings are in for the same reason — that
failure would otherwise appear only in a minified release.

The UI is a working board, not a debug screen: capture field, note list, empty
state, error banner, and an honest failure screen for a store that won't open.
Rules 23/24 — a surface ships at quality from the first commit. Capture uses the
IME action key because the north star is a thought captured in under a second,
and leaves the title empty so the core derives it from the first body line.

Every core call runs on Dispatchers.IO: they are blocking FFI into synchronous
SQLite, and running them on the main thread is exactly the jank going native was
meant to avoid.

The launcher icon reuses frontend/public/icon-maskable-512.png as an adaptive
foreground on the brand #F5C518 — the same asset and colour the web app already
ships, so the three surfaces wear one face.

No signing config. A release keystore that has passed through an agent session
or shell history is compromised by construction (task 2136); it has to be
generated by the operator and reach CI only as a secret. CI builds debug.

CI can only prove this BUILDS — a Linux runner cannot execute an APK, so feel
and on-device correctness remain an operator pass on an emulator.

Scribe #2739.
