agent-droid-bridge 0.1.0

MCP server giving AI agents eyes and hands inside Android devices via ADB

Agent Droid Bridge

A FastMCP server that gives AI agents programmatic control over Android devices and emulators via ADB.

Demo

Video demo coming soon. See the full walkthrough on YouTube.

Install

uvx agent-droid-bridge

No cloning or virtual environments needed. Requires Python 3.11+ and ADB installed on your host.

What it does

• Exposes 11 MCP tools covering screen interaction, UI inspection, text input, and arbitrary ADB commands
• Auto-detects the connected device when only one is present; presents a device list and requires the user to choose when multiple are connected
• Parses all commands safely via shlex — no shell injection possible
• Runs over stdio, making it compatible with any MCP-capable AI client

Quick start

1. Install ADB — see docs/setup.md for platform-specific instructions
2. Connect an Android device or start an emulator
3. Add the server to your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agent-droid-bridge": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["agent-droid-bridge"],
      "env": {
        "ADB_EXECUTION_MODE": "unrestricted",
        "ADB_ALLOW_SHELL": "true"
      }
    }
  }
}

4. Prompt your agent to use the agent-droid-bridge MCP tools
