What Android Skills Mcp does

Android Skills MCP wraps Google's android/skills library so any AI coding assistant can use it without copy and paste. The repository ships two tools that share a common parser and a bundled snapshot of the upstream skills, so both work offline through npx.

README

Android Skills MCP

Android Skills MCP wraps Google's android/skills library so any AI coding assistant can use it without copy and paste. The repository ships two tools that share a common parser and a bundled snapshot of the upstream skills, so both work offline through npx.

You get an MCP server that exposes the skill library to any MCP capable client, and a packager CLI that converts each SKILL.md into the native rules format of every major AI coding assistant.

Full documentation lives at skydoves.github.io/android-skills-mcp.

Packages

This is a pnpm workspace with three packages:

android-skills-mcp is an MCP server. It speaks stdio, ships three tools (list_skills, search_skills, get_skill), and exposes every skill as a skill:// resource. Any MCP client (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex CLI, Windsurf) can discover and pull the right skill on demand.
android-skills-pack is a CLI. It converts the upstream SKILL.md files into seven native rules formats (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini Code Assist, JetBrains Junie, Continue.dev, Aider) and writes them into your project.
@android-skills/core is the shared library used by both. It parses SKILL.md frontmatter with gray-matter, validates against the agentskills.io spec via zod, and builds a BM25 index with minisearch.

How to install the MCP server

You need this once per machine. Every project you open afterwards can use the skills.

Claude Code

claude mcp add android-skills -- npx -y android-skills-mcp

Cursor

Add an entry to .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "android-skills": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "android-skills-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Other MCP clients

Anywhere you can register an MCP server with a stdio command, run:

npx -y android-skills-mcp

The bundled snapshot loads in under 200 ms, so the cost of spawning the server per session is negligible.

How to install skills as files

If you prefer rules files committed to your repository over an MCP server, the packager CLI writes them directly. You can pick a single target or all:

npx android-skills-pack install --target cursor
npx android-skills-pack install --target claude-code
npx android-skills-pack install --target copilot
npx android-skills-pack install --target all

You can also filter to a specific skill:

npx android-skills-pack install --target cursor --skill edge-to-edge
npx android-skills-pack install --target claude-code --skill edge-to-edge,r8-analyzer

The full list of supported targets:

Target	Output	Notes
`claude-code`	`.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md`	Near 1:1 copy with references kept as separate files.
`cursor`	`.cursor/rules/<name>.mdc`	`description` plus `alwaysApply: false` frontmatter; references inlined.
`copilot`	`.github/instructions/<name>.instructions.md`	`applyTo: "**"` frontmatter.
`gemini`	`.gemini/styleguide.md`	Single concatenated file with `## <skill>` sections.
`junie`	`.junie/skills/<name>/SKILL.md`	JetBrains Junie supports the agentskills.io spec natively.
`continue`	`.continue/rules/<name>.md`
