Google Play Release Blocker Lint - target API 36, Billing 8, 16 KB

Runs the same checker as the npm package @readystack/play-release-blocker-lint on a Node.js runtime that pip installs for you (nodejs-wheel-binaries) - no system Node.js needed. Your files are checked locally.

Finds the lines that make Google Play reject your release - target API below 36, Billing Library below 8, 4 KB-only native libs - and prints the date each gate closed.

Upwork publishes a $25/hr median for Android developers (typical range $15-$35); one rejected release burns more than that in rebuild-and-resubmit time.
