# Android CLI Specialist This skill provides instructions for using the `android` CLI tool. The tool includes various commands for creating projects, running applications, interacting with devices, and managing the CLI environment. ## When to Use - Use when you need to create, configure, or analyze Android projects from the command line. - Use when interacting with, deploying to, or taking screenshots of running Android devices. - Use when managing Android SDK components, versions, or virtual devices (emulators). - Use when inspecting UI layouts or running XML-specified journey tests. ## Installation If the `android` tool is not in the path, download the platform installer to a private temporary directory, inspect it, then run it only after the user confirms the source and contents: ```bash tmpdir="$(mktemp -d "${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/android-cli.XXXXXX")" || exit 1 curl -fsSL https://dl.google.com/android/cli/latest/linux_x86_64/install.sh -o "$tmpdir/install.sh" sed -n '1,160p' "$tmpdir/install.sh" # After review and explicit user confirmation: bash "$tmpdir/install.sh" ``` Use the matching `darwin_arm64/install.sh` or `windows_x86_64/install.cmd` URL for macOS or Windows.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill android-cli --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
