[Feature] Add Linux ARM architecture support for Android CLI

Author: wkbinCreated Aug 21, 2026Updated Aug 23, 2026

Affected Skill

devtools/android-cli

Description

The Android CLI currently does not provide a build for Linux ARM architecture (e.g., linux_arm64). This limits users who want to run the Android CLI directly on ARM-based Linux devices, such as:

  • Mobile devices running Linux distributions (e.g., Ubuntu Touch, postmarketOS)
  • ARM-based single-board computers (e.g., Raspberry Pi)
  • Development on native Linux mobile environments

Expected Behavior

The Android CLI installation should support Linux ARM architecture variants, similar to how it supports:

  • linux_x86_64
  • darwin_arm64 (Mac ARM)
  • darwin_x86_64 (Mac Intel)
  • windows_x86_64

Actual Behavior

Installation commands only provide:

  • Linux x86_64: curl -fsSL https://dl.google.com/android/cli/latest/linux_x86_64/install.sh | bash
  • No Linux ARM variant available

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Attempt to install Android CLI on a Linux ARM device
  2. No appropriate installation binary is available for the architecture
  3. Users are unable to use the android-cli skill on ARM-based Linux systems

Suggested Fix

Provide Linux ARM builds of the Android CLI, including:

  • linux_arm64 (for ARMv8/ARM64)
  • Optionally: linux_armv7 (for ARMv7)

And update the skill documentation and installation instructions to include these variants.
