This blog  shares how we transformed library updates from reactive maintenance tasks into a proactive, scalable engineering process.

HaloDoc is a healthcare technology platform that offers telemedicine services, online pharmacy, and health information resources to users in Indonesia. Through its platform, HaloDoc aims to improve access to healthcare services, empower patients to take control of their health, and facilitate collaboration between healthcare providers. Developers can learn from HaloDoc's innovative use of technology to address healthcare challenges, leveraging telemedicine, artificial intelligence, and data analytics to enhance patient care and outcomes.

Halodoc automated their Android library upgrade process by building a system that combines Python scripts for dependency discovery, Gemini LLM for release note analysis, and CI/CD pipelines for multi-module propagation. The solution reduced manual upgrade effort by 50%, cut rollout time from 4 days to 2 days, and enabled monthly instead of quarterly upgrades. The system uses BuildSrc as a single source of truth, processes dependencies in batches through AI-assisted analysis, and automatically creates merge requests with upgrade recommendations, release notes, and impact assessments for engineering review.
