# We compile against Android SDK 37, but RN 0.86 pins Android Gradle Plugin
# 8.12.0, which is only validated up to compileSdk 36. The first AGP that
# supports 37 is 9.2+, and moving RN 0.86 onto AGP 9 (a breaking major) is not
# viable yet — so we use AGP's official escape hatch for "compileSdk newer than
# the tested AGP" instead of downgrading. Remove once RN ships an AGP-9 release.
