JADX MCP Server
MCP server for JADX-AI Plugin
JADX-MCP-SERVER (Part of Zin's Reverse Engineering MCP Suite)
⚡ 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.

🤖 What is JADX-MCP-SERVER?
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.
🤖 What is JADX-AI-MCP?
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.

Current MCP Tools
The following MCP tools are available:
fetch_current_class()
— Get the class name and full source of selected classget_selected_text()
— Get currently selected textget_all_classes()
— List all classes in the projectget_class_source()
— Get full source of a given classget_method_by_name()
— Fetch a method’s sourcesearch_method_by_name()
— Search method across classesget_methods_of_class()
— List methods in a classget_fields_of_class()
— List fields in a classget_smali_of_class()
— Fetch smali of classget_main_activity_class()
— Fetch main activity from jadx mentioned in AndroidManifest.xml file.get_main_application_classes_code()
— Fetch all the main application classes' code based on the package name defined in the AndroidManifest.xml.get_main_application_classes_names()
— Fetch all the main application classes' names based on the package name defined in the AndroidManifest.xml.get_android_manifest()
— Retrieve and return the AndroidManifest.xml content.
Note: Tested on Claude Desktop. Support for other LLMs might be tested in future.

🛠️ Getting Started
🛣️ Future Roadmap
-
Add Support for apktool
-
Add support for hermes code (ReactNative Application)
-
Add more useful MCP Tools
-
Make LLM be able to modify code on JADX
-
Add prompts templates, give llm access to Android APK Files as Resources
-
END-GOAL : Make all android reverse engineering and APK modification tools Connect with single MCP server to make reverse engineering apk files as easy as possible purely from vibes.

🙏 Credits
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
