# Sentry Android SDK

Opinionated wizard that scans your Android project and guides you through complete Sentry setup — error monitoring, tracing, profiling, session replay, logging, and more.

## Invoke This Skill When

- User asks to "add Sentry to Android" or "set up Sentry" in an Android app
- User wants error monitoring, crash reporting, ANR detection, tracing, profiling, session replay, or logging in Android
- User mentions `sentry-android`, `io.sentry:sentry-android`, mobile crash tracking, or Sentry for Kotlin/Java Android
- User wants to monitor native (NDK) crashes, application not responding (ANR) events, or app startup performance

> **Note:** SDK versions and APIs below reflect current Sentry docs at time of writing (`io.sentry:sentry-android:8.33.0`, Gradle plugin `6.1.0`).
> Always verify against [docs.sentry.io/platforms/android/](https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/android/) before implementing.
