Using Efficient Effects

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: general-misc  ·  Last updated:
Use this skill to choose the cheapest correct effect API in Jetpack Compose — `LaunchedEffect`, `DisposableEffect`, `SideEffect`, `rememberUpdatedState`, and skydoves/compose-effects' `RememberedEffect` and `ViewModelStoreScope`. Covers stale-callback bugs in long-lived `LaunchedEffect`, setup/teardown for non-coroutine subscribers, avoiding a coroutine scope just to react to a key change, and per-row ViewModels in a `LazyColumn`. Trigger when the user mentions LaunchedEffect, DisposableEffect, RememberedEffect, SideEffect, rememberUpdatedState, ViewModelStoreScope, effect restarts unexpectedly, leaked listener, or per-item ViewModel.

From the source SKILL.md

Compose ships three effect APIs by default: LaunchedEffect (coroutine, restarts on key change), DisposableEffect (setup/teardown with a cleanup block), and SideEffect (runs on every successful composition). The skydoves/compose-effects library adds RememberedEffect — a non-coroutine analog of LaunchedEffect. Picking the wrong API wastes a coroutine scope, leaks a listener, or silently drops the latest version of a callback. This skill is the decision tree.

What this skill does

Using Efficient Effects is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/using-efficient-effects/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

Who uses this skill

The Using Efficient Effects Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 159,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

When should I use the Using Efficient Effects skill?
Use Using Efficient Effects when your Claude Code task falls under the General category — specifically in the general misc area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Using Efficient Effects" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at /category/general/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Using Efficient Effects skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Using Efficient Effects is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the General category.
