 ## Exploring Module and Plugin APIs
 
 Once the [dependency on a module or plugin](plugin_dependencies.md) is declared in <path>plugin.xml</path>, it's useful to explore the packages and classes available in that dependency.
 The section below gives some recommended procedures for discovering what's available in a module or plugin on which a project depends.
-These procedures assume a project has the <path>build.gradle</path> and <path>plugin.xml</path> dependencies configured correctly.
