Description

You can debug a gradle plugin by changing the log level to debug mode and seeing lots of log output. This is great, but the CLI tool does not show it's debug output in this log output.

Proposal

Send debug logs from CLI to gradle logs. However, we want to make sure that the build output in gradle (Android Studio) does not show the debug logs of the CLI.

Research direction

The issue involves the CLI tool and Gradle plugin logging, but names no files or tests. Start by locating the CLI and Gradle logging entry points, then trace how debug messages are routed. Done means CLI debug logs appear in Gradle debug output while remaining absent from normal Gradle build output.
