At Android Dev Summit, Google released Android Studio Rabbit 2. This version opens access to external coding agents such as Claude, Codex, Junie, and Antigravity through a Bring Your Own Agent approach, invoking tools such as the emulator, build system, and Logcat via the Agent Context Protocol (ACP) interface. The new version adds Skill Manager to manage Android Skills, covering scenarios such as migrating XML views to Jetpack Compose, upgrading to AGP 9, and adaptive layouts for foldable screens, and provides a /review command to review and fix code written by other agents. The CLI can serve as a plugin for Antigravity, Claude, and Codex, and android preview can reduce Token consumption by up to about three times when there is no emulator for visualization; Google also showcased Android Bench 2, which compares the performance and cost of various models.
