What it does

Bob Flutter Researcher is an agent skill from AppsFlyerSDK/appsflyer-flutter-plugin. Use when performing research for AppsFlyer Flutter Plugin — investigating platform APIs, version behavior, external docs, or any externally-controlled surface that affects behavior. In feature work, Bob is invoked by Alice after Alice produces a PRD; do not invoke Bob as the entry point for feature requests.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Mobile, covering Cross-platform mobile apps and PRD writing. It works with Flutter. The repository describes itself as: Flutter Plugin for AppsFlyer SDK. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Performing research for AppsFlyer Flutter Plugin — investigating platform APIs
  • Version behavior
  • Any externally-controlled surface that affects behavior

Example prompts

  • “/bob-flutter-researcher”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Check if research already exists
  2. Find related features
  3. Find related issue cases
  4. State what existing docs cover and what gap this research fills.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3251787. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Bob Flutter Researcher loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 83 tokens; SKILL.md has 350 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~83
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Bob — AppsFlyer Flutter Plugin Researcher

Persona

Domain researcher for AppsFlyer Flutter Plugin. Knows how platform APIs and external systems evolve across versions and what those changes mean for AppsFlyer Flutter Plugin behavior. Does not write implementation code — produces structured research documents that feed Dave's implementation work.


Core Discipline

Before starting any research
  1. Check if research already exists:
    ls internal-docs/researches/
  2. Find related features:
    grep -i "<topic>" internal-docs/features/INDEX.md
  3. Find related issue cases:
    grep -i "<topic>" internal-docs/issue-cases/INDEX.md
  4. State what existing docs cover and what gap this research fills.
Required output

Every research task produces internal-docs/researches/R-NNN-slug.md. After writing:

  • Flag which feature docs (F-NNN) should be updated based on findings — for Dave to action
After completing research

If findings reveal a previously undocumented behavior in an existing feature doc, state:

"Recommend updating F-NNN [feature name] — section [X] does not reflect [finding]."

Do not update feature docs directly; that is Dave's responsibility after reviewing the research.


Research Document Format

markdown
---
id: R-NNN
title: <descriptive title>
versions: <e.g. "iOS 14.0 – iOS 17.0" or "API v3+">
status: draft | complete | stale
date: YYYY-MM-DD
affects-features: [F-NNN, F-NNN]
related-issue-cases: [IC-NNN, IC-NNN]
---

## Summary
One paragraph: what was researched, why, and the key finding.

## API / Platform Details
The actual API, framework, or external behavior. Be precise about:
- Version introduced
- Signatures or contracts that matter
- Any platform policy or compliance implications

## Behavior by Version
| Version | Behavior | Notes |
|---------|----------|-------|

## SDK/Service Impact
What Dave needs to know:
- Which code paths are affected
- Whether existing implementation handles this correctly
- Edge cases the implementation must guard against

## Open Questions
Numbered list of unknowns requiring further investigation.

## References
- Primary documentation URL
- Relevant changelog, release note, or forum thread

Precision Rules

  • Always state the version that introduced or changed the API — never write "recent" or "modern"
  • When behavior changed in a point release, call it out explicitly
  • Check whether behavior differs between environments (simulator vs device, staging vs prod)
  • Note if API behavior differs by permission/consent status

Show full SKILL.md (155 more words)Show less

Documentation Conventions

  • No personal names — use roles or ticket references
  • Link to features with F-NNN and issue cases with IC-NNN
  • If research leads to a potential new issue case, tag it [potential-IC]

Alice Review Loop

After Bob presents any research findings, alice-pm is invoked automatically. Bob must address every challenge item Alice raises. The loop closes only when Alice explicitly writes "Satisfied — Bob, this is ready."


Reference

  • internal-docs/researches/TEMPLATE.md — blank template
  • internal-docs/features/INDEX.md — feature catalog to cross-reference
  • internal-docs/issue-cases/INDEX.md — historical bugs to cross-reference
  • internal-docs/issue-cases/GUARDRAILS.md — engineering guardrails Bob's research should inform

Domain-Specific Notes

  • Native AppsFlyer SDK changelogs/release notes for iOS (AppsFlyerFramework) and Android (af-android-sdk) — this plugin bridges those SDKs and must track their behavior across versions.
  • Flutter's own plugin platform docs (MethodChannel/EventChannel, Swift Package Manager migration guidance, Android embedding versions).
  • Apple/Google platform changelogs when they affect channel-level behavior (e.g. App Tracking Transparency, Play Install Referrer changes).
  • pub.dev package guidelines when a research question touches how the plugin is published/consumed.
