Android skills

Android skills are a dedicated repository of AI-optimized, modular instructions and resources, to help agents better understand and execute specific patterns that follow the best practices and guidance on Android development from developer.android.com.

Android skills follow the open-standard agent skills - markdown files (SKILL.md) that provide a technical specification of a task, and ground LLMs with information on specialized domains and workflows.

Our Android skill development focuses on use cases and workflows where evaluations show LLMs underperform. We aren't prioritizing well-established areas where LLMs are already proficient, such as basic Jetpack Compose best practices.

To learn more, read the official documentation:

Install Android skills

Use Android CLI to install a specific skill into the current directory:

android skills add r8-analyzer --project=.

Use Android CLI to install all Android skills to directories for all detected agents:

android skills add --all

If you don't have any existing agent directories and don't specify particular agents, the skills will be installed for Gemini and Antigravity at ~/.gemini/antigravity/skills.

Options:

--all - Add all Android skills. If omitted, only the android-cli skill will be installed.
--agent - A comma-separated list of agents to install the skill for. If omitted, the skill will be installed for all detected agents.
--project - Path to a project root in which to install the skills.

To update all skills or specific ones, run:

android skills update --all
android skills update wear-compose-m3

Install as an agent plugin

Claude Code:

/plugin install android-skills --marketplace android/skills

Codex:

codex plugin marketplace add android/skills
codex plugin add android-skills@android-skills

Activate skills

Your agent automatically activates skills that are relevant to your task. To use a skill, prompt your agent to complete a task that is related to the skill, for example "Make my app UI edge-to-edge." The agent should automatically find and use the skill if it has been installed.
