OfficialImplement Clerk auth for native Android apps.
System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
This Skill removes uncertainty and manual work when adding Clerk authentication to native Android projects by providing clear, source-driven patterns, flow choices (prebuilt vs custom), and mandatory verification checks so developers can integrate auth correctly and safely.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Prebuilt and Custom Flows: Guides integration using prebuilt Compose views (AuthView/UserButton) or a custom API-driven implementation with clerk-android-api.
- Safety and Verification Gates: Enforces asking for flow choice and a real publishable key, SDK initialization checks, correct artifact selection, and runtime capability gating to avoid misconfiguration.
- Use Case: Add sign-in and profile UIs to a Kotlin + Jetpack Compose app using AuthView for fastest path or implement a multi-step custom flow that respects dashboard-driven factors and MFA.
Quick Start
Set up Clerk on my native Android Kotlin app by confirming it's a native project, choosing prebuilt or custom flow, providing the publishable key, and following the matching reference file (references/prebuilt.md or references/custom.md).
