The fastlane section of docs/sdk/ios/symbolication.mdx only covered upload_symbols_to_bugsee and presented Bitcode as current.

  • Adds an "Other fastlane actions" section: upload_artifact_to_bugsee (iOS size analysis, with an example) and a pointer to upload_mapping_to_bugsee (Android).
  • Says Bitcode was removed in Xcode 14, keeping the download_dsyms lane for older Bitcode builds.

Content comes from the plugin README and action sources (bugsee/fastlane-plugin-bugsee). npm run build passes with onBrokenLinks: 'throw'.

Note: the SwiftUI page items from the 2026-10-07 review are already fixed on main (the App example has a body, and iOS 13 / CocoaPods are covered by the 7.x note), so this PR doesn't touch it.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Clarified that Xcode 14 deprecated Bitcode and stopped enabling it by default, while Xcode 15 removed it. Only builds uploaded with Bitcode using Xcode 13 or earlier require Apple-recompiled dSYMs from App Store Connect.
    • Added guidance and examples for optional Fastlane actions to upload built iOS apps for size analysis or build-info recording, and Android ProGuard/R8 mapping files.

The iOS symbolication page clarifies which dSYMs to use for current builds and for Bitcode builds from Xcode 13 and earlier. It also documents the optional upload_artifact_to_bugsee and upload_mapping_to_bugsee Fastlane actions, including their use cases and an artifact-upload example.

Review details

Systems and components

  • observed — docs (service) was modified; 1 changed file maps to changed impact.

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in docs/sdk/ios/symbolication.mdx: The Bitcode guidance now states that Xcode 14 removed Bitcode and distinguishes current-build archive dSYMs from App Store Connect dSYMs required for Bitcode builds from Xcode 13 and earlier.
  • observed — Modified behavior in docs/sdk/ios/symbolication.mdx: Adds documentation for two optional Fastlane plugin actions: upload_artifact_to_bugsee uploads a built .app for size analysis, with an example accepting an app token and either an archive or app path; upload_mapping_to_bugsee uploads Android ProGuard/R8 mappings. The section notes plugin update requirements and that standard SDK build phases or the Android Gradle plugin already handle the respective uploads.

Review of PR #101: fastlane actions and Bitcode note

  • Read the diff and the surrounding symbolication.mdx content
  • Check internal links and the spell check
  • Post the review

Findings: no real issues found, so there are no inline comments.

What I checked

  • /sdk/android/gradle-plugin resolves to docs/sdk/android/gradle-plugin/overview.mdx (slug /sdk/android/gradle-plugin).
  • /cli/builds resolves to docs/cli/builds.md (slug /cli/builds).
  • The "iOS SDK's build phase already does these uploads" claim matches the build-info and size-analysis section earlier on the same page. Build-info is on by default, and the post-action script ships the IPA when BUGSEE_SIZE_ANALYSIS_ENABLED=1.
  • npx cspell on docs/sdk/ios/symbolication.mdx reports 0 issues. I did not run the full-docs spell check or npm run build. The PR description says the build passes.
  • The new section is a ### under ## Fastlane dSYM upload. The file uses .mdx already, and no new page was added, so sidebars.ts needs no change.

What I could not verify

  • I couldn't fetch the plugin README, so I did not check the upload_artifact_to_bugsee parameter names (app_token, xcarchive_path, app_path, build_info_only) or the #android-mapping-proguard--r8-upload anchor against it. The parameter names and the anchor come from the PR description. Please confirm them once against bugsee/fastlane-plugin-bugsee. A stale anchor would not fail the build, because Docusaurus doesn't check external links.
  • The "Bitcode was removed in Xcode 14" statement is correct as far as I know. It is also what the PR describes.

Minor, optional (P3)

  • The example sets both xcarchive_path and, in a comment, app_path. The text doesn't say whether the two are mutually exclusive or which takes precedence. If the action rejects having both, one sentence would help readers.

Summary

  1. Overall risk: Low. This is a docs-only change to one file, with no code or config impact.
  2. Merge recommendation: Approve after the parameter names and README anchor are confirmed against the plugin repo.
  3. Most important item: that confirmation, plus the optional xcarchive_path / app_path note.
  4. Positives: The PR fixes the outdated Bitcode framing. It keeps the download_dsyms lane for legacy builds. It also states when upload_artifact_to_bugsee is needed and that both actions are optional, with links to the related Android docs.

- Line 436: Update the Bitcode guidance in the symbolication documentation to
state that Xcode 14 no longer enables Bitcode by default and that Apple planned
to remove support in a later Xcode release. Preserve the guidance to use local
archive dSYMs for Xcode 14 submissions and download dSYMs from App Store Connect
for existing Bitcode submissions.
- Line 452: Update the optional-actions description near
`upload_symbols_to_bugsee` to distinguish default mapping and build-info uploads
from size-analysis artifact uploads. Document the Android
`buildInfo.sizeAnalysis.enabled = true` and iOS `BUGSEE_SIZE_ANALYSIS_ENABLED=1`
requirements, identify the iOS integration as an Archive post-action, and
explain when `upload_artifact_to_bugsee` is useful.

Review of PR #101 (re-review after push)

  • Read the diff against origin/main and the surrounding symbolication.mdx
  • Check cross-links and the Android option names against the repo docs
  • Run the spell check on the changed file
  • Post the review

Findings: no new issues, so there are no inline comments.

Earlier feedback

  • CodeRabbit, line 436 (Bitcode wording): it reviewed 1fb951f. The text now reads "Xcode 14 deprecated Bitcode and stopped building it by default, and Xcode 15 removed it". That matches the point CodeRabbit raised. The download_dsyms guidance for older Bitcode builds is kept.
  • CodeRabbit, line 452 (what each tool uploads by default): the paragraph now separates default uploads from opt-in IPA/artifact bytes. It names BUGSEE_SIZE_ANALYSIS_ENABLED=1 for iOS and buildInfo.sizeAnalysis.enabled for Android, and it says the iOS integration is an Archive post-action. These match the "Build info" and "Environment variables reference" sections earlier on the page.
  • Earlier Claude review (xcarchive_path / app_path P3): not addressed. The example still shows both and the text doesn't say whether they're exclusive. This is optional.

What I checked

  • /sdk/android/gradle-plugin and /cli/builds both resolve to existing pages (overview.mdx and builds.md, slugs match).
  • The Android option exists in docs/sdk/android/gradle-plugin/configuration.mdx. It appears as plugin.buildInfo.sizeAnalysis.enabled, default false.
  • npx cspell docs/sdk/ios/symbolication.mdx reports 0 issues. I did not run the full-docs spell check or npm run build.

What I could not verify

  • I couldn't fetch bugsee/fastlane-plugin-bugsee because WebFetch was denied. The upload_artifact_to_bugsee parameter names (app_token, xcarchive_path, app_path, build_info_only), the plugin's behavior, and the #android-mapping-proguard--r8-upload anchor are unchecked against the README. A stale external anchor would not fail the Docusaurus build, so please confirm them once.
  • The Xcode 14 / Xcode 15 Bitcode timeline is from my own knowledge, not from a source I checked. It is consistent with the PR text.

Minor, optional (P3)

  • docs/sdk/ios/symbolication.mdx:452 writes the Android setting as buildInfo.sizeAnalysis.enabled = true. The Android docs show plugin.buildInfo.sizeAnalysis.enabled=true in gradle.properties and enabled.set(true) in the DSL. As shorthand it reads fine, but it won't paste into a build file as written.

Summary

  1. Overall risk: Low. This is a docs-only change to one file.
  2. Merge recommendation: Approve once the fastlane parameter names and README anchor are confirmed against the plugin repo.
  3. Most important item: that confirmation, then the optional xcarchive_path / app_path note.
  4. Positives: The second commit addressed both CodeRabbit comments. The Bitcode framing is no longer outdated, and the page says when upload_artifact_to_bugsee is needed and that the other actions are optional.
