Overview
A JADX-GUI plugin paired with a separate Python MCP server (jadx-mcp-server). The server relays MCP tool calls over HTTP to the plugin, so an LLM client can read classes, smali, manifest and resources, search and cross-reference code, rename symbols, add comments and read debugger state in the open JADX project.
Who it is for: Android reverse engineers and security researchers using LLMs with JADX
Strengths
- About 30 MCP tools: source, smali, manifest, resources, xrefs, renaming, comments, debugger state
- One-command plugin install: jadx plugins --install github:zinja-coder:jadx-ai-mcp
- Works over stdio (Claude Desktop, Cherry Studio, LM Studio) or an optional HTTP mode
- Plugin and MCP server can run on different machines via --jadx-host and --jadx-port
Weaknesses
- Two components to set up: the JADX plugin and the separate Python MCP server
- HTTP mode on non-localhost binds has no authentication, per the README's own warning
- Needs a running JADX-GUI session with the project open
- Android APK analysis only, not general code navigation
What it needs
- no GPU
- Needs JADX GUI, Java 11+, Python 3.10+, uv, fastmcp, httpx
- Models: Claude Desktop, Cherry Studio, LM Studio, any MCP client
- port 8651
