ADB Controller
This skill allows you to execute ADB (Android Debug Bridge) commands on a connected Android device and automatically retrieve a screenshot of the result.
Configuration
The user can configure the target ADB device/server in their openclaw.json (this is automatically read by the script):
{
"skills": {
"entries": {
"adb-controller": {
"adbServer": "192.168.1.100:5555" // or device serial
}
}
}
}
Usage
To run an ADB command, execute the provided Python script:
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/adb-controller/scripts/run_adb.py shell input tap x y
You can pass any standard ADB arguments to the script. For example:
python3 .../run_adb.py shell input text "hello"python3 .../run_adb.py shell input keyevent 26(Power button)python3 .../run_adb.py shell swipe 500 1000 500 500
Workflow (Mandatory)
- Understand the user's intent and determine the correct ADB command.
- Execute the user's requested action using the
run_adb.pyscript via theexectool. - The script will output the path to a newly captured screenshot.
- Send the Image: You MUST use the
messagetool (withaction="send"andmedia="\x3Cpath-to-screenshot>") to send the resulting screenshot to the user, allowing them to see the outcome of the action. Do not just output the file path.
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install adb-controller - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/adb-controller - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
