android-dev

android-dev is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from OpenMinis/MinisSkills. It costs 125 tokens per session (3,326 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to building and running native Android apps in an ARM64 Alpine environment. It covers Java, Kotlin, Gradle, the Android SDK, APKs, device debugging, and some native code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to diagnose the environment, build and sign APKs, verify them, install and launch apps, and investigate compatible Android toolchains.
Why use it?
It avoids assuming that build tools or device connections exist, and checks each stage before reporting an app as built, installed, or started.

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-dev 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 4 executable files (scripts/bootstrap-android.sh, scripts/doctor.sh, scripts/smoke-bootstrap.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 开发(Minis ARM64 Alpine)

目标与不变量

按“探测 → 选路线 → 准备 → 构建 → 验证 → 安装/运行”执行。遵守:

  • 不假设 Java、SDK、Gradle、ADB、NDK 或固定路径存在;先取证。
  • 不直接运行 Google Linux SDK/NDK 中的 x86_64 native host 工具。
  • 不下载或替换未固定版本、来源和校验值的 AAPT2;不重新分发无明确许可证的第三方二进制。
  • 不把警告当成功,也不因非致命警告误报失败;以命令退出状态和验收证据为准。
  • 不输出 keystore 密码、API key、代理凭据等秘密。
  • 不自动卸载现有 App 来解决签名冲突,因为这可能删除用户数据。
  • 未取得 BUILD SUCCESSFUL、APK 验证、安装成功与启动证据时,不声称对应阶段完成。

能力矩阵

能力 状态 默认处理
Java/View Debug APK 已实测 本地 ARM64 构建
APK 签名与完整性验证 已实测 scripts/verify-apk.sh
Kotlin App 条件支持,未完整实测 先做最小 Kotlin smoke build
Compose/KSP/KAPT 条件支持,未实测 先检查插件、仓库、SDK/AGP/JDK 矩阵
Release APK/AAB 条件支持 用户提供签名策略;先验证工具链
ADB 条件支持 Alpine android-tools;必须检查设备状态
Shizuku 安装/启动 条件支持 需要 Minis 集成权限与运行中的 Shizuku
JNI arm64-v8a 实验性 先检查 NDK、Alpine Clang、sysroot;不得假设存在
多 ABI/AIDL/官方 native host 工具 未验证 先做能力探测;必要时改用远程 x86_64 构建机

Phase 0:Doctor

先运行 Skill 自带诊断脚本:

/var/minis/skills/android-dev/scripts/doctor.sh

状态约定:

  • STATUS=READY / exit 0:Java APK 环境可构建。
  • STATUS=NEED_BOOTSTRAP / exit 10:运行 Bootstrap。
  • STATUS=UNSUPPORTED_ARCH / exit 20:不要执行 ARM64 路线,改用匹配宿主的工具链。
  • ADB=optional_missingNDK_R27D=optional_missing 不阻断普通 APK 构建。

同时按任务检查磁盘、内存和写权限:

df -h /opt /var/minis /tmp
grep -E 'MemTotal|MemAvailable' /proc/meminfo
for D in /opt /var/minis/workspace /tmp; do test -w "$D" && echo "$D writable" || echo "$D NOT_WRITABLE"; done

磁盘不足时只清理本任务临时文件和可重建缓存,不擅自删除用户项目。Gradle 无堆栈直接显示 Killed 时,优先怀疑系统 OOM:降低 Xmx 与 workers,而不是反复重试。

Phase 1:从零准备环境

标准 Bootstrap

对空白/缺损环境直接运行:

/var/minis/skills/android-dev/scripts/bootstrap-android.sh

脚本会幂等地:

  1. 确认 aarch64 Alpine 与至少 1.5 GiB /opt 可用空间;
  2. 安装 OpenJDK 17、Gradle、ZIP/ELF 工具,并尽力安装 Alpine ARM64 ADB;
  3. 从固定 Google URL 下载 Android Platform 34 与 Build Tools 35.0.0;
  4. 同时校验固定 SHA-1/SHA-256,使用 .part 与 staging 目录,避免半成品覆盖;
  5. 从固定 Git commit 下载 ARM64 AAPT2 并校验 SHA-256,先验证后原子替换并保留旧版;
  6. 写入 /etc/profile.d/android-sdk.sh
  7. 验证 AAPT2 能解析 Android 34、D8/apksigner 存在,最后输出 STATUS=READY

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.
