How to use
- Copy the installation command and review the source package before installing it in your own agent environment.
- Check the source document for required tools, credentials and supported hosts.
- Describe your input and desired deliverable; review the output against the source material.
npx skills add https://github.com/hyperb1iss/hyperdroid-skill --skill lineageosBefore you start
- Installation does not include a model subscription, API allowance or permission to access your files.
- Repository stars and installation counts describe activity, not an independent quality or security test.

LineageOS Development
This skill covers LineageOS custom ROM development - from syncing sources to building and contributing.
Getting Started
Initialize Source
mkdir ~/lineage && cd ~/lineage
# Install repo (if needed)
mkdir -p ~/.bin
curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/.bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/.bin/repo
export PATH="$HOME/.bin:$PATH"
# Init LineageOS 21 (Android 14)
repo init -u https://github.com/LineageOS/android.git -b lineage-21.0 --git-lfs
# Sync
repo sync -c -j$(nproc) --force-sync --no-tags --no-clone-bundleBuild Commands
# Setup environment
source build/envsetup.sh
# Setup device (syncs device repos too)
breakfast <device>
# Build flashable ZIP
brunch <device>
# Or separately:
breakfast <device>
mka bacon
# Output: out/target/product/<device>/lineage-21.0-*-UNOFFICIAL-<device>.zipEssential Commands
| Command | Purpose |
|---|---|
breakfast <device> | Setup device + sync dependencies |
brunch <device> | breakfast + full build |
mka bacon | Build flashable ZIP |
mka bootimage | Build kernel only |
mka systemimage | Build system only |
