Your favorite agents are now integrated in Android Studio

Google released Android Studio Rabbit 2 as a stable production release, adding Bring Your Own Agent support for more than 40 ACP-compliant coding agents, including Claude Agent, OpenAI's Codex, Junie, and Google Antigravity. The release also stabilizes Android XR Emulators for XR glasses, audio glasses, and display glasses, adds a Skills Manager for installing Android and Firebase agent skills, and integrates LeakCanary with the built-in agent to explain and suggest fixes for memory leaks. The agents can call Android Studio tools such as the Android Emulator, build systems, and Logcat, and Gemini Enterprise support, introduced in Android Studio Rabbit 1, remains available for teams needing governance and private knowledge base integrations.

Android Studio Rabbit 2 is now stable and ready for you to use in production. This release includes key features to improve your development such as Bring Your Own Agent, new XR Emulator features, a LeakCanary update, a new agent skills manager tool, AI code review, and more. You can learn more about these stable features, the features in the latest Android Studio Canary release https://developer.android.com/studio/preview/features , and check out the demos and talks we have to share at Android Dev Summit https://developer.android.com/events/dev-summit , which is being live-streamed today. Bring Your Own Agent BYOA : Integrate your preferred coding agents You told us how important flexibility is to your workflows. You can now access the best agents along with the best Android development tools. If you prefer a specific ACP compliant agent — you’ve got it. If you need the cost efficiency of a particular agent for your project — you’ve got it. If you need to use a specific provider to align with an enterprise agreement — you’ve got it. You can choose from over 40 coding agents — including Claude Agent, Codex from OpenAI, Junie, and Google Antigravity. These agents have access to Android Studio tools like the Android Emulator, Build Systems, Logcat - and they also can use Android skills https://developer.android.com/tools/agents/android-skills to complete complex tasks. To get started with BYOA, open the agent window and select your preferred agent, or choose an agent from Settings Tools AI Agents , authenticate, and submit your first prompt. Build for Android XR with Emulators The Android XR Emulators for XR glasses, audio glasses, and display glasses are now stable in Android Studio with new and updated features, so you can build, iterate, and test Android XR experiences right from your laptop. The updated display glasses Emulator lets you customize the environment with your own 360-degree photos or video feed from a connected camera so you can test real physical environments from anywhere. We've also introduced new hardware LED indicators for microphone and camera states and made improvements to the Pairing Wizard to pair a virtual phone with virtual audio and display glasses faster and more reliably. To get started, launch the XR, audio, or display glasses Emulators from Device Manager. Discover, install, and manage Android skills in Android Studio It is now easier to discover, install, and manage Android skills https://developer.android.com/studio/gemini/skills directly in the skill manager in Android Studio, giving you granular control over the specialized workflows and procedural guidance available to the agent. Android Studio comes loaded with Android skills https://developer.android.com/tools/agents/android-skills and Firebase agent skills https://firebase.google.com/docs/ai-assistance/agent-skills —like migrating legacy XML Views to Jetpack Compose, upgrading to AGP 9, implementing adaptive layouts for foldables and tablets, or integrating CameraX and Firebase services. Open the Skills editor tab from the Agent panel's three-dot menu Manage Agent Skills , by typing @ in the chat box and clicking Manage skills , or from Settings Tools AI Skills Manager . Agentic fixes with LeakCanary Android Studio directly integrates LeakCanary with the built-in agent to help you diagnose and resolve memory leaks without leaving the IDE. This integration lets LeakCanary provide more meaningful narrative explanations of the underlying causes of memory leaks, and suggest specific code changes to correct them. Try this feature out in the LeakCanary task in the Profiler. Gemini Enterprise in Android Studio For engineering teams requiring enterprise-grade governance, strict data privacy controls, and custom internal knowledge base integrations, full support for Gemini Enterprise has been available in Android Studio since Android Studio Rabbit 1. You can use Gemini Enterprise to connect to your design systems, internal SDKs, and private repositories to get highly relevant responses for your use cases. Gemini Enterprise in Android Studio provides key capabilities for enterprise teams: - Strict Data Privacy: Guarantees that source code and workspace context are never retained or used to train global foundation models. - Compliance & Audit Logging: Full visibility into agent activities, generated patches, and prompt history within your organization's security perimeter. - Admin Policies: Centralized management for IT administrators to define approved skills, agents, and model endpoints across dev teams. Go from raw diffs to guided code reviews with Change Review As agentic tools help you write and refactor code faster than ever, a new engineering bottleneck has emerged: reviewing and verifying all of that code. AI Change Review meets you wherever code changes live in Android Studio. You can launch a review from three visual entry points or directly from the Agent chat window. Change Review starts off by identifying Recommended Fixes where the agent independently reviews the agent changes, pending commits, or committed changes under review. Once you have addressed recommended fixes, you can click Create Walkthrough to kick off a guided walkthrough. Instead of forcing you to read files in alphabetical order, the guided walkthrough accelerates your review by grouping and prioritizing related diff chunks across your project into logical themes.
