Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/callstack/agent-device --skill android-emulator- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads android-emulator automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.
Security audits
Independent scans of the skill's instructions and bundled files.
SKILL.md
The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.
Android Emulator
Require the agent-device CLI to be installed separately before driving an emulator:
npm install -g agent-device@latest
Treat installation and upgrades as user-owned setup steps. Do not run that command autonomously or substitute a mutable npx -y agent-device@latest invocation.
For a normal app-driving task, start immediately. Do not probe first with --help, --version, devices, appstate, snapshot, or screenshot. Target Android explicitly when opening an app or package id:
agent-device open <app-or-package-id> --platform android --foreground
Follow the initial interactive snapshot and corrective error hints. If the shell reports that agent-device is unavailable, stop and ask the user to install it or expose their existing installation on PATH.
Only when the task is specialized or a command shape is unclear, read the relevant version-matched help topic:
agent-device help validate # engineering validation and build freshness
agent-device help debugging # screenshots, logs, traces, video, and failures
agent-device help react-native # React Native and Expo runtime guidance
agent-device help react-devtools # React components, props/state/hooks, render profiling
agent-device help scripting # durable replay and CI workflows
