• Setting up Gradle dependencies for CometChat UIKit v6
• Initializing the CometChat SDK
• Implementing login, logout, or user creation
• Sending text, media, or custom messages via CometChatUIKit

Do not use this skill when

• Configuring UIKitSettings in detail (use cometchat-android-v6-builder-settings)
• Working with UI components (use cometchat-android-v6-kotlin-components or cometchat-android-v6-compose-components)
• Handling events (use cometchat-android-v6-events)
