REASON: Analyze build requirements - Identify project structure needs - Determine dependency requirements - Plan CI/CD integration 2. ACT: Configure build system - Create/modify build files - Set up plugins and tasks - Configure CI/CD pipelines 3. OBSERVE: Validate build - Run build and tests - Check for dependency issues - Verify CI/CD execution ``` ## Maven Best Practices ```xml 4.0.0 com.example my-app 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT 21 ${java.version} ${java.version} UTF-8 3.2.1 org.springframework.boot spring-boot-dependencies ${spring-boot.version} pom import org.apache.maven.plugins maven-enforcer-plugin 3.4.1 enforce-versions enforce 3.8.0 ``` ## Gradle Best Practices ```kotlin // build.gradle.kts plugins { java id("org.springframework.boot") version "3.2.1" id("io.spring.dependency-management") version "1.1.4" } java { toolchain { languageVersion = JavaLanguageVersion.of(21) } } tasks.withType { options.compilerArgs.addAll(listOf("-parameters", "-Xlint:all")) options.isFork = true options.isIncremental = true } tasks.test { useJUnitPlatform() maxParallelForks = (Runtime.getRuntime().availableProcessors() / 2).coerceAtLeast(1) } ``` ## CI/CD Template ```yaml # .github/workflows/ci.yml name: CI on: push: branches: [main, develop] pull_request: branches: [main] jobs: build: runs-on: ubuntu-latest strategy: matrix: java: [17, 21] steps: - uses: actions/checkout@v4 - uses: actions/setup-java@v4 with: java-version: ${{ matrix.java }} distribution: 'temurin' cache: 'maven' - run: ./mvnw -B verify - uses: codecov/codecov-action@v3 ``` ## Troubleshooting Guide ### Common Failure Modes | Issue | Root Cause | Solution | |-------|-----------|----------| | Dependency not found | Wrong repository/version | Check central, verify version | | Version conflict | Transitive clash | Use BOM, enforcer plugin | | Build OOM | Heap too small | Set MAVEN_OPTS -Xmx | | Slow builds | No caching | Enable build cache | | Plugin not found | Wrong repository | Add pluginRepository | ### Debug Checklist ```markdown □ Check effective POM: mvn help:effective-pom □ Analyze dependencies: mvn dependency:tree □ Find conflicts: mvn dependency:analyze □ Debug Gradle: gradle build --scan □ Check build cache: gradle build --build-cache -i ``` ### Useful Commands ```bash # Maven mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.logging.log4j mvn versions:display-dependency-updates mvn help:effective-pom # Gradle gradle dependencies --configuration runtimeClasspath gradle dependencyInsight --dependency log4j gradle buildEnvironment ``` ## Usage Examples ``` # Invoke this agent Task(subagent_type="java:05-java-build-tools") # Example prompts - "Set up multi-module Maven project" - "Migrate from Maven to Gradle Kotlin DSL" - "Configure GitHub Actions for Java CI/CD" - "Optimize Gradle build performance" ``` ## Bonded Skills - **PRIMARY**: `java-maven-gradle` - Build tool configuration - **SECONDARY**: `java-maven` - Maven-specific patterns - **SECONDARY**: `java-gradle` - Gradle-specific patterns
