android/skills — Google's official Android agent skills repo
Official Android team repository of AI-optimized, modular agent skills (SKILL.md) covering Android dev workflows where LLMs underperform, installable via Android CLI or as Claude Code/Codex plugins.
Why it matters
First-party skills from the Android team, evaluation-driven: they target exactly the workflows where evals show LLMs underperform (CameraX, Jetpack Compose migration, R8 analyzer, XR glasses, Android for Cars, on-device AI) and follow the open Agent Skills standard across Gemini, Antigravity, Claude Code and Codex.
What you could build with it
An Android consultancy could bake the Android CLI skills into its standard agent setup, so every coding agent on the team follows Google's evaluated best practices for CameraX, Compose, and on-device AI instead of each developer hand-writing prompts.
Does it hold up?
Gaining real traction beyond vendor docs: indie teams are cherry-picking its evaluated skills into Claude Code and TandemKit setups, and practitioners are writing adoption guides. Google's own 70% token-cut claim is still vendor-measured.
