This external package contains only the runtime pieces used by Defold:

Native C++ runtime from vkq_library/vkquality/src/main/cpp, excluding upstream tests.
Java startup mitigation and JNI wrapper classes from vkq_library/vkquality/src/main/java.
Default vkqualitydata.vkq runtime data asset.
Apache 2.0 license.

The upstream Gradle project, Unity sample project, editor tool, and tests are intentionally not vendored here. The package is built with CMake through scripts/build.py build_external --package=vkquality. The Java annotation dependency on AndroidX was removed from StartupMitigation.java so the jar can be built with Defold's existing Android SDK classpath.

VkQuality is packaged as libvkquality.so because the upstream Java wrapper loads the native runtime with System.loadLibrary("vkquality") and exposes the recommendation API through JNI methods implemented in vkquality_c.cpp. Building it as a static library would require changing the Java wrapper to load Defold's engine library instead, linking the VkQuality objects into the engine shared library, and preserving/exporting the JNI symbols from that library.
