Cosmic IDE
Complete Software Development on Android
Write, build, and run real applications directly on your Android phone, tablet, or desktop setup.
What You Can Do
Cosmic IDE turns your Android device into a complete development environment. It combines an intelligent editor, real compilers and build tools, full Git integration, and an interactive terminal.
Code Intelligence
- Autocomplete & Diagnostics: Real-time error checking, type inspection, and signature help via Language Server Protocol (LSP) integrations.
- Modern Code Editor: Multi-tab editing, sticky scroll, Code Minimap, inline Find & Replace, bracket auto-completion, and custom font support.
- Themes & Styling: Built-in syntax themes (One Dark, Nord, Dracula, Monokai, Solarized) with support for custom TextMate themes and grammars.
- Side-by-Side Previews: Live visual previews for Markdown, HTML, and images alongside your source code.
Build & Run
- Plugin-Driven Build System: Automatic project sync, task runner, and streaming build logs in bottom tool-windows for installed build plugins and project templates.
- Custom Project Workflows: Support for Gradle, Cargo, CMake, Maven, npm, and custom shell-based project creation, sync, build, and run commands.
- JDK Management: Download and switch between Java Development Kits directly in settings via Foojay.
- Background Task Protection: Runs builds, long-running processes, and background servers safely without OS process termination.
Full Version Control & Terminal
- Dedicated Git Interface: Manage changes, stage files, review commit history, switch branches, and push/pull from remotes.
- Built-in Linux Terminal: Interactive terminal shell with job control and
pacmanpackage manager to install compilers and tools.

How Shizuku is used
Can run arbitrary shell commands typed into Rish via `sh -c` through Shizuku.
This is an AI-assisted analysis of Shizuku-related usages in the app's public source code. It is best effort, so it may not catch every single usage.
How this app uses Shizuku
Shizuku is used to power an embedded privileged shell in settings.
- Run privileged shell commands: the user can type any command into the Rish dialog in settings and have it executed with elevated privileges through Shizuku using
sh -c, with the command output shown in a dialog that can be copied.
Android APIs or commands used
sh -c
