Yet Another Frida MCP Server - Full-featured MCP server for Frida dynamic instrumentation

Yet Another Frida MCP Server — Full-featured MCP server for Frida dynamic instrumentation.

English | 简体中文

---

Existing Frida MCP servers on the market are either abandoned, poorly maintained, or limited to a handful of basic operations. ya-frida-mcp was built from scratch to be a comprehensive, production-ready bridge between AI agents and Frida — covering device management, process control, script injection, memory operations, and even ADB integration out of the box.

Features

59 MCP tools across 7 categories, all returning structured JSON for minimal token consumption.

Category	Tools	Highlights
Device	frida_ls_devices frida_get_device frida_add_remote frida_remove_remote frida_query_system_parameters frida_enable_spawn_gating frida_disable_spawn_gating frida_enumerate_pending_spawn frida_enumerate_pending_children frida_inject_library_file frida_inject_library_blob	Device management, system info, spawn gating, native library injection
Process	frida_ps frida_spawn frida_attach frida_detach frida_kill frida_resume frida_list_sessions	Full process lifecycle; frida_ps supports scope/pids, frida_spawn supports argv/env/cwd/stdio
App	frida_ls_apps frida_ls_apps_running frida_get_frontmost_application	App enumeration with scope/identifiers filtering
Script	frida_inject frida_rpc_call frida_unload_script frida_get_messages frida_list_scripts frida_enumerate_modules frida_enumerate_exports frida_list_exports frida_post_message frida_enable_child_gating frida_disable_child_gating frida_compile_script frida_snapshot_script frida_eternalize_script	JS injection (QJS/V8), RPC, child gating, bytecode compilation, script snapshots
Memory	frida_memory_read frida_memory_write frida_memory_scan frida_memory_protect	Read/write/scan/protect with hex I/O
ADB (optional)	adb_shell adb_push adb_pull adb_install adb_logcat adb_forward adb_root ...	17 tools, auto-registered when adb is on PATH
Frida Server (optional)	frida_server_status frida_server_install frida_server_start frida_server_stop	Auto-download, push, and manage frida-server on Android via ADB

Also includes:

• MCP Resources — live device list, session state, process/app enumeration as subscribable resources
• MCP Prompts — workflow templates for native hooking, Java/ObjC hooking, Stalker tracing, module dumping
• TOML Configuration — customize transport, default device, remote devices, timeouts
• CLI Utilities — doctor, devices, ps, ls, tools, install/uninstall for MCP clients
• One-command client setup — register into 22+ MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Roo Code, Cline, Kiro, and more
• Structured output — all tools return compact JSON with Literal type hints for LLM-friendly schemas

Configuration (optional)

ya-frida-mcp init-config   # generates config.toml in current directory
ya-frida-mcp show-config    # display resolved config
ya-frida-mcp -c /path/to/config.toml serve

# config.toml
[server]
name = "ya-frida-mcp"
transport = "stdio"       # "stdio" or "sse"
host = "127.0.0.1"
port = 8000

[frida]
default_device = "local"  # "local", "usb", or device ID
script_timeout = 10
spawn_timeout = 15

[[frida.remote_devices]]
host = "192.168.1.100"
port = 27042
