cometchat-android-v6-kotlin-customization

Make the CometChat Android v6 UI match your app in the Kotlin XML Views cohort — theming via CometChatTheme.DayNight attributes, per-component styles, message-bubble styling, ViewHolder view slots, state views, long-press and composer menu options, text formatters, custom message rendering with BubbleFactory, localization and sounds. Triggers: 'change cometchat colors android', 'brand the android chat ui', 'dark mode cometchat android xml', 'custom row in conversations', 'replace the empty state', 'add a message menu option', 'custom message type android'.

> **Ground truth:** catalog `android-v6.json` + the live Theming/Customization pages. Slot and style setters below were verified against the INSTALLED 6.0.5 source. Fetch exact token names from `color-resources`; **never invent a token or a setter**.
>
> ⚠<U+FE0F> **Kotlin XML Views cohort** — theming is XML theme attributes, slots are ViewHolder listeners. The Compose cohort (`CometChatTheme {}` + style data classes) is a separate skill.

## Companion skills (read first)
- `cometchat-android-v6-core` — install, credentials, init/login, the fetch map. Assumed here, never repeated.
- `cometchat-android-v6-kotlin-components` — what exists; this skill changes how it looks/behaves.

## Use this skill when
"match the chat to our brand", "use our fonts", "support dark mode", "restyle the conversation rows or bubbles", "replace the empty/loading/error view", "add an option to the message long-press menu", "render a custom message type", "highlight #hashtags", "translate the UI", "change notification sounds". **Theming lives HERE** — there is no separate theming skill.
