This all depends on where you want to be shown. If you are intended to be a handler for particular file types that the user downloads, then just declare your activity as a VIEW action with the appropriate MIME type, and you will be available for the user wherever that type is shown (such as in the download manager).
Intent matching can be used for a wide variety of other things, but exactly what you do generally depends on where you want to be shown as an option. Be sure to read the Intent class and related documentation. Note that at this point unfortunately a lot of the built-in applications don't provide super extensive ways to extend themselves this way, but hopefully that will improve over time.
