What it does

Android Dev is an agent skill from sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills. Production-grade Android app development guide covering native (Kotlin/Java), cross-platform (Flutter, RN, KMM), and hybrid architectures.

Its SKILL.md is about 540 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including reference files (for example `references/detailed-guide.md`, `references/flutter.md` and `references/hybrid.md`).

It sits in Mobile, covering Android development and Cross-platform mobile apps. It works with Android, Flutter, Java and Kotlin. The repository describes itself as: AAS Core is the local, agent-first control plane for complete catalog discovery, agent-owned selection, stack validation, and planning, backed by 2,400+ agentic skills. Includes… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Android development
  • Tasks that involve Cross-platform mobile apps

Example prompts

  • “/android-dev”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1e53ce2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Android Dev loads about 536 tokens when it runs, and up to ~18k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 260 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~38
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~536
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~18k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Android App Development Skill

Detailed Guide

Read the detailed guide before executing this skill. It retains the complete procedure and reference material. Treat its safety, prerequisites, and validation requirements as mandatory. For focused work, load the relevant sections; for end-to-end work, read the guide completely.

When to Use This Skill

  • Use when deciding on a tech stack (see §1 Stack Selection)
  • Use when setting up project architecture (see §2 Architecture)
  • Use when designing UI, screens, or a design system (see §3 UI & Design)
  • Use when ensuring code quality, patterns, or APIs (see Best Practices)
  • Use when implementing error handling or debugging crashes (see §5 Error Handling)
  • Use when planning testing strategy (see §6 Testing)
  • Use when configuring build, CI/CD, or release pipelines (see §7 Build & Release)
  • Use when optimizing performance or memory (see §8 Performance)
  • Use when debugging or fixing bugs (see §9 Debugging)
  • Use when following the full development roadmap (see §10 Development Roadmap)
  • Use when needing deep reference for a stack (see references/ directory)

Limitations

  • This skill is scoped to Android and Android-adjacent delivery paths; it does not cover iOS-only architecture, App Store release operations, or Apple platform UI guidance.
  • Version numbers, Play Console policy thresholds, and recommended libraries can change; verify release-critical details against current Android, Google Play, and library documentation before shipping.
  • Code snippets are architecture patterns, not complete applications; adapt package names, dependency versions, permissions, privacy disclosures, and security controls to the actual project.
  • The guidance does not replace device QA, accessibility review, security review, legal/privacy review, or store compliance checks for a production release.
