The RoboCop has two primary jobs:
Monitor and approve the semi-autonomous git merges from Skia's repository into the Android source tree. See autoroller documentation here for details on how to interact with it.
Stay on top of incoming Android-related bugs in both the Skia and Android bug trackers. For Skia bugs, this means triaging and assigning all Android bugs that are currently unassigned.
