<toolSet name="External Tools">
  <tool name="Run Ktlint" showInMainMenu="false" showInEditor="false" showInProject="false" showInSearchPopup="false" disabled="false" useConsole="true" showConsoleOnStdOut="false" showConsoleOnStdErr="false" synchronizeAfterRun="true">
    <exec>
      <option name="COMMAND" value="$ProjectFileDir$\gradlew.bat" />
      <option name="PARAMETERS" value="formatKotlin" />
      <option name="WORKING_DIRECTORY" value="$ProjectFileDir$" />
    </exec>
  </tool>
  <tool name="Run Detekt" showInMainMenu="false" showInEditor="false" showInProject="false" showInSearchPopup="false" disabled="false" useConsole="true" showConsoleOnStdOut="false" showConsoleOnStdErr="false" synchronizeAfterRun="true">
    <exec>
      <option name="COMMAND" value="$ProjectFileDir$\gradlew.bat" />
      <option name="PARAMETERS" value="detekt --continue" />
      <option name="WORKING_DIRECTORY" value="$ProjectFileDir$" />
    </exec>
  </tool>
  <tool name="ADB kill-server" showInMainMenu="false" showInEditor="false" showInProject="false" showInSearchPopup="false" disabled="false" useConsole="true" showConsoleOnStdOut="false" showConsoleOnStdErr="false" synchronizeAfterRun="true">
    <exec>
      <option name="COMMAND" value="adb" />
      <option name="PARAMETERS" value="kill-server" />
      <option name="WORKING_DIRECTORY" value="$ProjectFileDir$" />
    </exec>
  </tool>
  <tool name="ADB devices" showInMainMenu="false" showInEditor="false" showInProject="false" showInSearchPopup="false" disabled="false" useConsole="true" showConsoleOnStdOut="false" showConsoleOnStdErr="false" synchronizeAfterRun="true">
    <exec>
      <option name="COMMAND" value="adb" />
      <option name="PARAMETERS" value="devices" />
      <option name="WORKING_DIRECTORY" value="$ProjectFileDir$" />
    </exec>
  </tool>
  <tool name="ADB IP connect .26:5555" showInMainMenu="false" showInEditor="false" showInProject="false" showInSearchPopup="false" disabled="false" useConsole="true" showConsoleOnStdOut="false" showConsoleOnStdErr="false" synchronizeAfterRun="true">
