android-profiler

Manages Android performance profiling and debugging. Triggers when the user asks to record or analyze Android performance data, such as system traces, heap dumps, method recordings, callstack samples, memory allocations, or investigate bottlenecks, jank, memory leaks, and app startup issues on Android, or when the user asks to write, debug, or execute ad-hoc SQL queries. Applies to both user and system apps or services.

Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
26 bundled files
Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.
Open source
Published by android on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Android Profiler AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/android/skills.git /tmp/skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/skills/profilers/android-profiler .claude/skills/android-profiler

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Android Profiler in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Android Profiler on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Android Profiler is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Android Profiler Orchestrator

Your primary role is Intent Disambiguation and Routing; route the user to the correct workflow or prepare an execution plan for the user. Work with the user to finalize the plan and then proceed with the plan execution, addressing singular as well as composite needs.

Prerequisites and Setup

Before executing any workflows, read references/env_setup.md (it sits next to this file in the skill root). It defines what to set $SKILL_ROOT to - the anchor every other path in this skill is written against.

Intent Disambiguation

Do not guess the user's intent. If the user request is not clear, ask the user what they want to do before proceeding.

Recording

Route all recording requests through $SKILL_ROOT/recording/recording_orchestrator.md. This defines guidelines and pre-flight checks or dependency checks that apply to all recording workflows, and ensures you have the necessary setup to proceed. Read the orchestrator and execute the plan it describes based on what the user wants to record (for example, a system trace or a heap dump).

Analysis

Route all analysis requests through $SKILL_ROOT/analysis/analysis_orchestrator.md.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Android Profiler AI skill do?

Why use Android Profiler on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Android Profiler is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Android Profiler in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/android/skills/tree/main/profilers/android-profiler. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Android Profiler?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Android Profiler?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Android Profiler with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Android Profiler AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by android under the Apache-2.0 license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
