Overview

Apktool MCP Server brings Android reverse engineering workflows directly into your LLM-enabled development environment. By wrapping the standard Apktool functionality, it allows AI models to decompile applications, parse manifest files, and navigate smali structures to identify potential security issues or logic flaws. Users can programmatically list resources, modify smali code, or search through project files using a set of integrated MCP tools. This server is designed to facilitate context-aware code reviews and automated analysis of Android packages, turning static files into interactive exploration sessions.

Our verdict

This server carries a high-risk score of 40/100, primarily due to the lack of a read-only mode, which grants every installation full write access to your files. As a community-maintained project that has not yet undergone editorial review and remains in an early, bug-prone development stage, it should be restricted to isolated, sandbox environments where accidental or malicious modifications to your codebase can be contained.

Zero direct dependencies reduce the supply-chain surface area.
Licensed under the permissive Apache-2.0 license.
Comprehensive suite of tools for reading and modifying Android project files.

Every installation defaults to full write access permissions.
Early stage of development indicates frequent bugs and crashes.
No official maintenance or support from the Apktool vendor.
