I just wanted to let you know that I've (only very briefly, without doing any further debugging) tried this feature out, for https://github.com/google/android-fhir/issues/2481, and it seems to me that there is a file permission issue?
This installed just fine, but when a Gradle Script tried to write to $ANDROID_HOME, which with this is set to /opt/android it failed, because that directory is owned by root but the UID when running a GitHub Codespace Dev Container is vscode.

I was able to work-around this with sudo chown -R vscode:vscode /opt/android/, but doing that probably shouldn't be required.
