I added the following in my convention plugin

plugins.withType<AndroidPlugin> {
  val compileOnlyApi = configurations.create("compileOnlyApi")
  configure<AndroidComponentsExtension<*, *, *>>("androidComponents") {
    onVariants { variant ->
      variant.compileConfiguration.extendsFrom(compileOnlyApi)
      configurations.getByName("${variant.name}ApiElements").extendsFrom(compileOnlyApi)
    }
  }
}

That's pretty clever! If you're using Gradle 8.4+, consider using Configurations.dependencyScope("compileOnlyApi") to create that configuration. If not, I would suggest configuring it manually to set isCanBeResolved = false, isCanBeConsumed = false and isVisible = false.
