How to make an Android app UI edge-to-edge with an agent with Skills

Install the Android Skills and ask the agent for an edge-to-edge UI change that the Skills guide.

Who it is forAndroid app developer who wants the screen content to extend behind the system bars and needs the change done in an existing project.

The problemEdge-to-edge layout changes touch many screens and can break insets, so a general agent may get details wrong.

The outcomeThe agent applies an edge-to-edge UI change to the app, guided by the installed Skills.

What you need first

  • Android CLI, documented at developer.android.com/tools/agents/android-cli
  • An AI agent that reads skills, such as Claude Code, Codex, or Gemini
  • An Android project to work on

Steps

  1. Install Android CLI from developer.android.com/tools/agents/android-cli.
  2. Run android skills add --all to install all Android Skills for the detected agents.
  3. Open your agent in the Android project directory.
  4. Prompt the agent with: Make my app UI edge-to-edge.
  5. Run the app on a device or emulator and check that content sits correctly under the status and navigation bars.

Prompt for your agent

Using the android/skills repository, change the UI of the Android project at <project path> to be edge-to-edge. Report which screens were changed and why. Verify by running the app and checking that no content is hidden behind the system bars.

Caveat. The README asks users to double-check results because AI can make mistakes, so review each changed screen on a device.
