⚡ Fully automated MCP server built to communicate with JADX-AI-MCP Plugin to analyze Android APKs using LLMs like Claude — uncover vulnerabilities, parse manifests, and reverse engineer effortlessly.
JADX MCP Server is a standalone Python server that interacts with a modified version of jadx-gui (see: jadx-ai-mcp) via MCP (Model Context Protocol). It lets LLMs communicate with the decompiled Android app context live.
JADX-AI-MCP is a plugin for the JADX decompiler that integrates directly with Model Context Protocol (MCP) to provide live reverse engineering support with LLMs like Claude.
Think: "Decompile → Context-Aware Code Review → AI Recommendations" — all in real time.

This project is a plugin for JADX, an amazing open-source Android decompiler created and maintained by @skylot. All core decompilation logic belongs to them. I have only extended it to support my MCP server with AI capabilities.
The original README.md from jadx is included here in this repository for reference and credit.
This MCP server is made possible by the extensibility of JADX-GUI and the amazing Android reverse engineering community.
Also huge thanks to @aaddrick for developing Claude desktop for Debian based linux.
And in last thanks to @anthropics for developing the Model Context Protocol and @FastMCP team
And all opensource maintainers and contributors that makes libraries and dependencies which allows project like this possible.
Thank you Mseep.net for auditing and providing Assessment Badge.
This plugin inherits the Apache 2.0 License from the original JADX repository.
