What does this agent skill do?
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 # component tree, props/state/hooks, and renders
agent-device help scripting # durable replay and CI workflows
