android-project-create-describe

name	android-project-create-describe
description	Use when creating Android projects from official Android CLI templates or describing an existing Android project to find variants, build targets, and APK output artifacts.

Android Project Create And Describe

Use the official android create and android describe commands.

Template Discovery

android create list
android create -h

For safe exploration, use dry-run:

android create --dry-run --verbose --name=<app-name> --output=<dest-path> <template-name>

Existing Project Analysis

Run from the project root unless a different path is needed:

android describe --project_dir=.

Use the output to identify:

• Gradle wrapper availability.
• Build variants.
• APK output paths.
• Missing release/debug artifacts.

Rules

• android describe may run Gradle model tasks; report build failures clearly.
• Do not create a new project inside an existing repo unless explicitly requested.
• Prefer --dry-run before writing template files.
