# GitHub Actions Build Artifacts

## Overview

Reusable GitHub Actions patterns to build React Native apps for iOS simulators and Android emulators in the cloud, then publish artifacts retrievable via `gh` CLI or GitHub API.

## When to Apply

Use this skill when:
- Creating CI workflows that build React Native simulator/emulator artifacts.
- Uploading iOS simulator and Android emulator installables from PRs or manual dispatch runs.
- Replacing local-only mobile builds with downloadable CI artifacts.
- Needing stable artifact IDs/names for scripted retrieval with `gh` or REST API.

## Quick Reference

1. Add composite actions from [gha-ios-composite-action.md][gha-ios-composite-action] and [gha-android-composite-action.md][gha-android-composite-action].
2. Wire them into `.github/workflows/mobile-build.yml` from [gha-workflow-and-downloads.md][gha-workflow-and-downloads].
3. Upload with `actions/upload-artifact@v4` and capture `artifact-id` output.
4. Download with `gh run download` or `GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/artifacts/{artifact_id}/{archive_format}`.

## References

| File | Description |
|------|-------------|
| [gha-ios-composite-action.md][gha-ios-composite-action] | Composite `action.yml` for iOS simulator `.app.tar.gz` builds and artifact upload |
| [gha-android-composite-action.md][gha-android-composite-action] | Composite `action.yml` for Android emulator `.apk` builds and artifact upload |
| [gha-workflow-and-downloads.md][gha-workflow-and-downloads] | End-to-end workflow wiring plus `gh` and REST download commands |

## Problem -> Skill Mapping

| Problem | Start With |
|---------|------------|
| Need CI iOS simulator `.app.tar.gz` artifact | [gha-ios-composite-action.md][gha-ios-composite-action] |
| Need CI Android emulator `.apk` artifact | [gha-android-composite-action.md][gha-android-composite-action] |
| Need one workflow to trigger both platform jobs | [gha-workflow-and-downloads.md][gha-workflow-and-downloads] |
| Need scripted artifact download | [gha-workflow-and-downloads.md][gha-workflow-and-downloads] |

Included

Lightning Web Components with PICKLES methodology and 165-point scoring. Use this skill when the user creates or edits LWC components, builds wire service patterns, or writes Jest tests for LWC. TRIGGER when: user creates/edits LWC components, touches lwc/**/*.js, .html, .css, .js-meta.xml files, or asks about wire service, SLDS, or Jest LWC tests. DO NOT TRIGGER when: Apex classes (use generating-apex), Aura components, or Visualforce.

tanstack-query

Included

Manage server state in React with TanStack Query v5. Set up queries with useQuery, mutations with useMutation, configure QueryClient caching strategies, implement optimistic updates, and handle infinite scroll with useInfiniteQuery. Use when: setting up data fetching in React projects, migrating from v4 to v5, or fixing object syntax required errors, query callbacks removed issues, cacheTime renamed to gcTime, isPending vs isLoading confusion, keepPreviousData removed problems.

Included

Process documents with Nutrient DWS. Use when the user wants to generate PDFs from HTML or URLs, convert Office/images/PDFs, assemble or split packets, OCR scans, extract text/tables/key-value pairs, redact PII, watermark, sign, fill forms, optimize PDFs, or produce compliance outputs like PDF/A or PDF/UA. Triggers include convert to PDF, merge these PDFs, OCR this scan, extract tables, redact PII, sign this PDF, make this PDF/A, or linearize for web delivery.
