Can I run android/skills on my computer?

It runs as an add-on inside an AI assistant you already use. Android CLI and a coding agent that supports skills, or Claude Code/Codex plugin setup. The skills are workflow instructions for an agent, not a standalone Android builder or a guarantee that code compiles.

Android CLI and a coding agent that supports skills, or use the documented Claude Code or Codex plugin path.

android/skills: Guide coding agents through Android tasks

What it does

Android Skills supplies task-specific instruction files for coding agents working on Android projects. Its documentation describes installing a chosen skill with the Android CLI into the current project, or installing all skills for detected agents. It also offers an agent-plugin install path. Once installed, a compatible agent can notice relevant instructions when you ask for Android work; the source gives “Make my app UI edge-to-edge” as an example request. The project says it prioritizes workflows where evaluations show language models need help.

How to use it

Use the Android CLI to install the android-cli skill or a selected skill into a project, then ask a supported agent for a matching Android change.

Common use cases
