/install android-adb
Description
Control Android devices via ADB with support for UI layout analysis (uiautomator) and visual feedback (screencap). Use when you need to interact with Android apps, perform UI automation, take screenshots, or run complex ADB command sequences.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent and purpose-aligned for Android automation. Before installing, make sure you are comfortable giving the agent ADB access to a device, use only trusted adb tooling, monitor sensitive actions, and revoke or disconnect debugging access after use.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: android-adb
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is benign. It provides instructions for controlling Android devices using standard ADB commands, including UI analysis and screenshots. All described actions, such as `adb shell` commands and `adb pull` for device-generated files, are directly aligned with the stated purpose of Android automation. There is no evidence of prompt injection against the agent, data exfiltration from the agent's host, malicious execution, or any other intent to compromise the agent's environment or unrelated systems.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The stated purpose is Android device automation, and the SKILL.md instructions match that purpose, including ADB connection, UI interaction, UI dumps, and screenshots. These are powerful capabilities, so users should understand the device-control implications.
Instruction Scope
The instructions are command examples rather than hidden automation, but they include broad ADB interaction primitives such as tap, text input, key events, swipes, and command sequences. Sensitive actions should remain user-directed.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec or code, but the metadata does not declare adb as a required binary even though the skill depends on adb commands. Users will need a trusted Android Platform Tools installation.
Credentials
ADB access, USB debugging, wireless debugging, screenshots, and UI hierarchy pulls are proportionate to Android automation, but they expose the connected device state to the agent and local workspace.
Persistence & Privilege
ADB pairing and USB debugging can create ongoing device trust until disconnected or revoked. This is expected for ADB but should be managed after use.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install android-adb - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/android-adb - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
