+# Post-prebuild patches
+
+After running `npx expo prebuild --clean`, the following manual patches must be applied to the generated native directories. These work around issues in the Expo 55 / RN 0.83 monorepo setup that cannot be solved through config plugins yet.
+
+## Android: Buildship stub cleanup in `settings.gradle`
+
+**Affected apps:** computer-vision, llm, speech, text-embeddings
+
+Gradle's Buildship plugin creates stub directories inside each app's `node_modules/` during project sync. These stubs shadow real packages hoisted to the workspace root, breaking autolinking.
+
+In each app's `android/settings.gradle`, add the following block inside `extensions.configure(com.facebook.react.ReactSettingsExtension)`, **before** the `autolinkLibrariesFromCommand` call:
+
+```groovy
+extensions.configure(com.facebook.react.ReactSettingsExtension) { ex ->
+  // Remove Buildship/Gradle stubs that shadow real packages in the workspace-root node_modules.
+  def localNM = new File(rootDir, "../node_modules")
+  if (localNM.exists()) {
+    localNM.eachDir { dir ->
+      if (dir.name.startsWith("@")) {
+        dir.eachDir { scopedDir ->
+          if (!new File(scopedDir, "package.json").exists()) {
+            scopedDir.deleteDir()
+          }
+        }
+      } else if (!new File(dir, "package.json").exists()) {
+        dir.deleteDir()
+      }
+    }
+  }
+
+  if (System.getenv('EXPO_USE_COMMUNITY_AUTOLINKING') == '1') {
+    ex.autolinkLibrariesFromCommand()
+  } else {
+    ex.autolinkLibrariesFromCommand(expoAutolinking.rnConfigCommand)
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## iOS: Stale pods after prebuild
+
+**Affected apps:** all Expo apps
+
+After prebuild, the generated `Podfile.lock` may reference stale versions (e.g. `React-Core-prebuilt 0.81.5` instead of `0.83.4`). Run a clean pod install:
+
+```bash
+cd apps/<app-name>/ios
+rm -rf Pods Podfile.lock
+pod install
+```
+
+## iOS: Buildship stubs breaking pod install
+
+**Affected apps:** all Expo apps
+
+The same Buildship stubs that affect Android also break iOS autolinking during `pod install`. Before running `pod install`, clean them:
+
+```bash
+# From the repo root
+for app in apps/computer-vision apps/speech apps/llm apps/text-embeddings; do
+  find "$app/node_modules" -maxdepth 2 -type d ! -exec test -f '{}/package.json' \; -print 2>/dev/null | while read dir; do
+    # Skip the node_modules dir itself and scoped package parents
+    if [ "$(basename "$dir")" != "node_modules" ]; then
+      rm -rf "$dir"
+    fi
+  done
+done
+```
+
+Alternatively, delete the entire `apps/<app-name>/node_modules/` directory before running `pod install` — yarn workspace hoisting means the app-local `node_modules` should only contain symlinks, not real packages.
