What problem does it solve?
This Skill closes the gap between passing tests and a truly working Android app by building, installing, launching, and visually verifying the running app on a real device or emulator.
Core Features & Use Cases
- End-to-end runtime verification: Build the debug APK, deploy it, launch the main activity, and confirm the app stays up in a real Android runtime.
- Visual inspection: Capture screenshots and UI layouts to catch rendering problems such as overlap, truncation, missing content, or incorrect state.
- Device and emulator handling: Select a target by serial or AVD name, handle fallback paths when a device is unauthorized or unavailable, and iterate through fix-and-retest loops.
- Use case: After a green Gradle check, run this Skill to confirm the Android login or home screen actually renders correctly on a phone or emulator.
Quick Start
Use the android-device-debug skill to build the Android debug APK, install and launch it on a chosen device or emulator, and capture a screenshot and UI layout to verify the running app.
