Android skills are a dedicated repository of AI-optimized, modular instructions and resources, to help LLMs 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:
Use Android CLI to install a specific skill into the current directory:
android skills add --skill=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 (and--skillisn't specified), only theandroid-cliskill 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.--skill- Specific skill that you want to install. If omitted (and--allisn't specified), only theandroid-cliskill will be installed.--project- Path to a project root in which to install the skills.
AI can make mistakes, so always double-check the results.
