android-workmanager-notifications

android-workmanager-notifications is a skill for Codex from krutikJain/android-agent-skills. It costs 24 tokens per session (1,134 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for scheduling background work and sending notifications in Android within the operating system's execution limits. WorkManager is Android's API for reliable work that can run later, with retries and conditions such as network availability.

In plain words
What is it for?
Building reminders, deferred sync jobs, retryable tasks, and notification delivery in Android apps.
Why use it?
It helps choose an appropriate background-work mechanism and avoid duplicate jobs, unreliable retries, or notifications that the system blocks.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

android-workmanager-notifications scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/run_examples.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Android WorkManager Notifications

When To Use

  • Use this skill when the request is about: android workmanager job, background reminder notification android, reliable retry workmanager.
  • Primary outcome: Schedule reliable background work, reminders, and notification delivery with WorkManager and Android execution limits.
  • Read references/patterns.md when you need the API-choice matrix for WorkManager vs foreground service vs alarms.
  • Read references/scenarios.md for unique-work, notification-permission, and reminder-delivery review paths.
  • Handoff skills when the scope expands:
  • android-permissions-activity-results
  • android-performance-observability

Workflow

  1. Choose the right execution API first: WorkManager for deferrable guaranteed work, foreground services for ongoing user-visible work, and exact alarms only when clock-time precision and policy requirements truly demand them.
  2. Make work idempotent and uniquely addressable with explicit names, input data contracts, backoff policy, and cancellation behavior.
  3. Apply constraints, expedited work, and retry semantics only where they match user value and platform limits.
  4. Build notification delivery as part of the contract: channels, importance, tap action, runtime permission handling, and graceful behavior when notifications are denied.
  5. Validate duplicate scheduling, reboot/process death, and degraded states before handing off performance or permission-specific follow-up work.

Guardrails

  • Keep background work idempotent and cancellation-aware.
  • Use unique work or unique periodic work when the feature represents one logical reminder or sync pipeline.
  • Treat expedited work as scarce and user-valuable; do not use it as a generic queue-jumping flag.
  • If a worker uses network constraints, ensure the app declares the permissions required for those constraints on modern Android versions.
  • Keep notification value intact even when the user declines POST_NOTIFICATIONS; the app still needs a visible recovery path.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
