Google is now putting more than 50 sessions online. The focus was agentic AI coding rather than Android Studio, which only got a minor update. The headline release is the Android CLI, letting autonomous agents run builds, execute code, and check tests in a verification loop. Google also announced over 30 official Android Skills to set coding standards for agents, and previewed an unnamed, faster Android Emulator rework that Google says boots faster and uses fewer resources, which matters for local agent test loops. ## Content Android Dev Summit came back last week after a four-year break. Events in Mountain View and London drew more than 900 attendees, and Google is now putting over 50 of the sessions online. ## What Google focused on The emphasis was agentic AI coding. Android Studio itself got only a minor update. The main new piece is the Android CLI. From the terminal, autonomous agents can execute code, run builds and tests, and check requirements in a verification loop. Google also announced more than 30 official Android Skills, meant to set engineering standards for code-generation agents. There was a preview of a rework of the Android Emulator, which has no name yet and is currently called "prototype." Google says it boots faster and uses fewer resources, which matters when agents are running local test loops. Other items: - Hands-on workshops with the newly announced XREAL Aura Android XR glasses - Enhancements to A2UI for agentic interfaces ## Watching the sessions The released sessions cover four tracks: App Foundations, Intelligent Apps, Tools and Performance, and Android XR. They're on YouTube and at d.android.com/events/dev-summit. Each session has a full downloadable transcript, enhanced with slide content so it can be fed to AI agents. Google also built a Gemini Notebook for each track, which makes the sessions easier to search and ask questions about. ## Questions this post answers ### What is the Android CLI announced at Android Dev Summit for agentic coding? The Android CLI is a terminal tool that lets autonomous coding agents execute code, run builds and tests, and check requirements in a verification loop on Android projects. It was the main new release at Android Dev Summit 2026, reflecting Google's shift in focus toward agentic AI coding tools over traditional Android Studio updates, which received only a minor update this cycle. _Developers adopting agent-driven Android workflows can follow CLI and tooling updates like this on daily.dev._ ### What are Android Skills that Google announced for AI coding agents? Android Skills are official guidelines Google introduced, more than 30 of them, meant to set engineering standards for code-generation agents working on Android projects. They were announced alongside the Android CLI at Android Dev Summit 2026 as part of Google's push toward agentic AI coding tools for Android development. _Teams standardizing how agents write Android code can track announcements like this on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Android Dev Summit 2026: All the Key Announcements](https://daily.dev/posts/android-dev-summit-2026-all-the-key-announcements-vcqfsj4od) · Medium · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Google previews Android CLI for new world of agentic development](https://daily.dev/posts/google-previews-android-cli-for-new-world-of-agentic-development-pnmizam6a) · DEVCLASS · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Agentic app coding gets an upgrade with Google’s release of Android CLI](https://daily.dev/posts/agentic-app-coding-gets-an-upgrade-with-google-s-release-of-android-cli-n42dquwk6) · TechCrunch · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Google launches Android CLI 1.0 for AI coding agents](https://daily.dev/posts/google-launches-android-cli-1-0-for-ai-coding-agents-4ldzl3tzl) · The Next Web · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#google](https://daily.dev/tags/google), [#android](https://daily.dev/tags/android), [#ai-coding](https://daily.dev/tags/ai-coding), [#android-studio](https://daily.dev/tags/android-studio) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/android-dev-summit-2026-agentic-coding-tools-50-sessions-online-biloyjeos) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Android Dev Summit 2026: agentic coding tools, 50+ sessions online","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/android-dev-summit-2026-agentic-coding-tools-50-sessions-online-biloyjeos","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/android-dev-summit-2026-agentic-coding-tools-50-sessions-online-biloyjeos"},"datePublished":"2026-11-08T23:07:04.565Z","dateModified":"2026-11-08T23:07:40.942Z","description":"Android Dev Summit returned after a four-year break, with events in Mountain View and London drawing over 900 attendees.
