Wear OS Build Configuration Summary

Date: January 27, 2026
Status: ✅ Ready for Development

What’s Been Set Up

1. Annotation Processing Migration ✅

• From: KAPT (deprecated, had NullPointerException bug with SavedStateHandle)
• To: KSP (modern, recommended by Google)
• Files Changed:
  • build.gradle.kts - Added KSP plugin v1.9.24-1.0.20
  • wear/build.gradle.kts - Replaced KAPT with KSP for Hilt compilation

2. Compilation Errors Fixed ✅

All compilation errors resolved:

• ✅ SavedStateHandle removed from ViewModels (KAPT bug workaround)
• ✅ WearMediaFile constructor calls fixed
• ✅ NetworkSourcesUiState duplicate removed
• ✅ Missing composable branches added to NetworkSourcesScreen

3. Android Studio Run Configurations ✅

Created two production-ready configurations with Wear OS as default:

Configuration	Location	Build Type	Purpose	Default
wear [Debug]	.idea/runConfigurations/wear__Debug_.xml	Debug	Fast iteration, debuggable	✅ Yes
wear [Release]	.idea/runConfigurations/wear__Release_.xml	Release	Production, optimized	-

Default Behavior:

• Wear OS [Debug] is set as the startup module in .idea/runConfigurations.xml
• When you click Run in Android Studio, it automatically runs Wear OS
• Can be changed anytime using the run configuration dropdown or select-wear-module.ps1 script

4. Module Selection Setup ✅

Added interactive module selection:

• Script: scripts/select-wear-module.ps1 - Interactive module selector
• Documentation: docs/MODULE_SELECTION.md - Complete guide for switching modules
• Default: Wear OS is pre-configured as the primary module
• Configuration: .idea/runConfigurations.xml - Specifies which module runs by default

5. Build Scripts ✅

Already available in scripts/:

• build-wear-debug.PS1 - Quick debug build
• build-wear-release.PS1 - Release build with version bump
• select-wear-module.ps1 - Interactive module selection

6. Documentation ✅

Comprehensive guides created:

Document	Path	Purpose
WEAR_OS_QUICK_START.md	docs/WEAR_OS_QUICK_START.md	Get started in 5 min
WEAR_OS_SETUP.md	docs/WEAR_OS_SETUP.md	Complete setup guide
MODULE_SELECTION.md	docs/MODULE_SELECTION.md	Switch between modules
