What it does

Firebase Remote Config is an agent skill from evanca/flutter-ai-rules. Use when implementing feature flags, running A/B tests, setting parameter defaults, fetching/activating config, or enabling real-time config updates.

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 A/B testing. It works with Firebase. The repository describes itself as: Flutter AI Skills and Rules for Claude, Codex, Cursor, and Other AI-Powered IDEs. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Implementing feature flags
  • Running A/B tests
  • Setting parameter defaults
  • Fetching/activating config

Example prompts

  • “/firebase-remote-config”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Setup and Configuration
  2. Parameter Management
  3. Fetching and Activating
  4. Real-time Updates
  5. Throttling and Performance
  6. Testing and Debugging

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7b9cce2. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • flutter

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • firebase.google.com

    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

Firebase Remote Config loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 361 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~43
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.

Firebase Remote Config Skill

This skill defines how to correctly use Firebase Remote Config in Flutter applications.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

  • Implementing feature flags or remote configuration without deploying app updates.
  • Managing parameter defaults and fetching remote values.
  • Implementing real-time config updates for instant changes.
  • Setting up A/B testing or conditional targeting for user segments.

1. Setup and Configuration

flutter pub add firebase_remote_config
flutter pub add firebase_analytics  # required for conditional targeting of app instances
dart
import 'package:firebase_remote_config/firebase_remote_config.dart';

final remoteConfig = FirebaseRemoteConfig.instance;
  • Enable Google Analytics in the Firebase project for user property and audience targeting.
  • Ensure the Remote Config REST API is not disabled — the SDK depends on it.
  • For macOS, enable Keychain Sharing in Xcode.

Configure settings:

dart
await remoteConfig.setConfigSettings(RemoteConfigSettings(
  fetchTimeout: const Duration(minutes: 1),
  minimumFetchInterval: const Duration(hours: 1),
));

2. Parameter Management

Set in-app defaults (ensures the app behaves as intended before connecting to the backend):

dart
await remoteConfig.setDefaults(const {
  "feature_new_onboarding": false,
  "max_retry_attempts": 3,
  "welcome_message": "Hello, world!",
  "promo_discount_pct": 0.0,
});

Read values with type-specific getters:

dart
final showNewOnboarding = remoteConfig.getBool("feature_new_onboarding");
final maxRetries = remoteConfig.getInt("max_retry_attempts");
final welcomeMsg = remoteConfig.getString("welcome_message");
final discount = remoteConfig.getDouble("promo_discount_pct");
  • Never store confidential data in Remote Config keys or values — they can be accessed by end users.
  • Define parameters with the same names in the Firebase console as those in the app.
  • Group related parameters with common prefixes (e.g., login_timeout, login_attempts_max).

3. Fetching and Activating

dart
await remoteConfig.fetchAndActivate();
  • Use fetchAndActivate() to fetch and apply values in a single call.
  • Alternatively, call fetch() then activate() separately to control when values take effect.
  • Activate fetched values at appropriate times (e.g., app start) for a smooth user experience.
  • Check remoteConfig.lastFetchStatus to determine if the fetch was successful, failed, or throttled.
  • Handle fetch failures gracefully — default values are used automatically when fetch fails.

4. Real-time Updates

dart
remoteConfig.onConfigUpdated.listen((event) async {
  await remoteConfig.activate();
  // event.updatedKeys contains the changed parameter names
  if (event.updatedKeys.contains("feature_new_onboarding")) {
    // Refresh UI based on the new value
  }
});
  • Real-time Remote Config is not available for Web.
  • Update UI state when new configuration values are activated.
  • Ensure real-time updates do not disrupt the user experience mid-flow.

5. Throttling and Performance

  • Fetch calls are throttled if an app fetches too frequently.
  • Default minimum fetch interval in production: 12 hours.
  • For development, use a shorter interval — but only in debug builds:
dart
await remoteConfig.setConfigSettings(RemoteConfigSettings(
  fetchTimeout: const Duration(minutes: 1),
  minimumFetchInterval: const Duration(minutes: 5),
));
  • Be mindful of service-side quota limits with a large user base.

6. Testing and Debugging

  • Use conditional values in the Firebase console to test configurations without new app deployments.
  • Implement A/B testing with different parameter values for different user segments.
  • Test the app with both default and remote values.
  • Verify graceful handling of configuration changes at runtime.
  • Test offline behavior to ensure proper fallback to defaults.
