What this skill does
Native Android Development Use this skill for native Android work only. It is the default shared-skill entrypoint for Compose-first Android apps targeting API 28+, bounded rewrites from older codebases, and agent-assisted workflows in Android Studio, Codex, and Claude Code. Quick Reference Task Default Picks Notes ------ --------------- ------- State & UI New UI screens Jetpack Compose Views interop only where existing mature flows or third-party SDKs require it Observable state ViewModel + StateFlow (Kotlin 2.x) Replaces LiveData for new code Async work Kotlin Coroutines + Flow Dispatchers.IO for blocking, Dispatchers.Default for CPU; structured concurrency preferred Unit/integration tests JUnit 5 + Turbine Turbine for Flow testing; JUnit 5 for coroutine lifecycle UI tests Compose Testing APIs (ComposeTestRule) Espresso only for Views interop or legacy screens State machine discipline Submit guard if (uiState.value is Loading) return Prevents double-tap duplicate submissions in ViewModel Auto-reset transitions viewModelScope.launch { delay(500); uiState.value = Idle } Input ready for next action without manual UI reset Minimal sealed classes Remove states that can't happen anymore Dead sealed subclasses produce dead when branches and mislead future readers Networking & resilience Network reachability ConnectivityManager + NetworkCallback wrapped in StateFlow Publish isConnected; disable submit buttons when offline; observe in collectAsStateWithLifecycle DI & architecture Dependency injection Hilt @HiltViewModel, @Inject constructor, @Module + @InstallIn Local persistence Room + KSP Prefer @Upsert over separate insert/update; KSP replaces KAPT Background work WorkManager + CoroutineWorker Deferrable, constraint-aware background processing Agent tooling & build Agent tooling (in Android Studio) Android Studio Gemini assistant Built-in coding agent surface Agent tooling (outside IDE) Gradle CLI + ADB Terminal-first build, install, launch, and inspection Build command …
